Strange oral allergy?


PickyEmmy

Recommended Posts

PickyEmmy Newbie

brief intro, I’m female in my early 20s diagnosed Celiac and Gastroparesis (Gastroparesis was this year it’s been rough)


I’ve noticed lately if I eat cereal or have certain foods I get this long white vein like thing in my mouth I also get red blisters inside my lip. I took a Benadryl the other day that contained the red dye and mouth broke out on the inside I stopped taking it and it went away I take the dye free ones and have no issues so far.

 

today I ate lactose free milk with corn flakes and now my mouth is all blistered again and the white veins are in my cheeks.

 

i noticed the same thing with oats too. 
 

with eggs my lips get tingly. These “allergies” literally came out of nowhere. I dislike taking Benadryl but it relieves the itching I get from certain foods.

 

my diet is very limited due to Gastroparesis and Celiac disease not being able to eat full meals I wonder if these mouth sores are due to malnutrition. 
 

Doctors think I’m a little nutty when I mention these things to them they think I just don’t want to eat and prescribe me anti depressants.

im running out of options here.

I have corn and dairy allergies among some others, I do get the red sores (mine are a bit more like blood blisters) in my mouth. But yes keeping antihistamines around is daily life. Some stores around here have a liquid version that taste awful but works faster/better. Food allergies are very common in celiacs, common ones are dairy, soy, legumes (peanuts), nightshades (Tomatoes, peppers, potatoes) garlic, onion, etc. You should also avoid oats as about 10% celiacs react to them the same, as a side note double check they are Gluten Free. As for you issues with eggs, the are often considered histamine liberators.
On a side note, mine have tone down over the years to not be as bad, but for a short while they got worse when ignored.

I did deal with gastroparesis for awhile and found easy to break down and digest foods to be best, in my case I would often blend stuff into eggs before cooking slowly and having to chew til swish able -_-.But seemed the main issues was easy to break down, and nothing that would float. I often found digestive enzymes helped, few other little things to promote digestion. Literally was like a list of quirks and maybes with how random it would be. It would flare up daily no matter what for weeks after a gluten exposure of any kind.

Trying a elimination diet might help to find foods that do not affect any of your issues.

Have you ever considered getting food allergy tests done to find the culprits, and then avoid them if possible? If you can't avoid them perhaps you could at least rotate your diet so that you don't eat them as often. I will assume that you are 100% gluten-free and that isn't causing you issues, but it never hurts to double check your diet to be sure.

What brand corn flakes did you use? Was it labelled "gluten free"? Some corn flakes have malted barely which is not gluten free. 

Oats are also a very problematic ingredient (in that some people react to all oats) and they are very likely to be cross contaminated, unless they have a gluten free label. 

An egg allergy sometimes may go along with a soy allergy.

Do you react to dairy? If so there are alternatives that you might be able to tolerate.

      In what way? Skinese:  You paid for it, might as well try.  They are the usual mix and is gluten free. "Free of milk/casein, eggs, fish, shellfish, tree nuts, peanuts, wheat, gluten, and soybeans. Contains no artificial colors, flavors, or preservatives."   Are you using whole milk yogurt or the no fat yogurt.  The no fat has varius ingrediEnts to mimic fats texture but some people react to the  gums used.   Sibo: Foods that do not contain carbohydrates or fiber do not usually cause problems. This includes meats (beef, pork, lamb, venison); poultry (chicken, turkey, duck); fish and shellfish; eggs; and butter, oils, and hard cheeses. Stonyfield Whole milk yogert, I think, is the only one with lactase for lactose intolerance.  Naturally Fermented Pickles [The Complete Guide] For your skin health you need dietary iodine intake around 500 to 1000 micrograms a day.  I take Liquid Iodine 500 mcg a day.  It is the amount I ate daily in the 1960/s before they stopped using it in bread.  Since 1970 the daily intake of iodine has decrease 50%.  50 mcg/drop in the brand I use.  The dose used to prove Wolff-Chaikoff Effect was upwards of 11 grams The USDA lists the safe range from 125 mcg to 1000 mcg (1 gram).  Japanese say 3000 mcg is safe.  Look at tradition japanese hair, skin, and their childrens intellegence.  They must be doing something more right than us.

      FASANO DIET - not Dasani. For some reason, it is not allowing me to edit my post.

      Yes, she should be eating lots of gluten daily...4 slices of wheat bread would be ideal for the screenings.

      Hello,  I cant get my daughter's TTG IGA antibodies to drop into the normal range. A bit of the backstory : both my kids were diagnosed in July of 2023. Both were >250 at diagnosis.  My son went from >250 July 2023  to 33 Nov 2023  to 15.7 July 2024. With <15 being negative. He is almost there.  My daughter went >250 July 2023 to 66.3 Dec 2023 to 31.7 July 2024 to now back up to 35.6.  We are a fully gluten free house and we do not eat out AT ALL in any restaurants other than one dedicated gluten-free bakery. We don't eat any oats. She takes anti epileptic drugs / vitamins so we are double checking all medications and supplements. One medication says they should be gluten free but cant guarantee excipients aren't contaminated so we will be changing that one to a different manufacturer.   Feeling a little worried that her levels are worse and we cant get her into the normal range. We are thinking about cutting dairy or doing the Dasani diet. She doesnt eat a crazy amount of processed food and what she has in gluten free certified and not made in shared lines but maybe we should cut it all out until her levels drop? Any other advice? We will check all personal products also, but we believe everything is gluten free. My son is away at school so trying to figure out what she does and eats that he doesnt. Chickpeas (canned), dairy (he doesnt eat much dairy due to acne) and of course her medications.   Thank you for any input you may have.

      She finally has her appointment today. They said in their opinion it’s likely celiac. But repeated the bloodwork today. Her frost bloodwork was weak positive 5.3 (4-10 is a weak positive) Dr wanted her own labs. And they will be calling us to schedule the endoscopy.  They told her to keep Eating gluten. She has been eating is again for the last couple weeks.
