this is weird cos I can't seem to find anyone else who has this issue. Most of us agree with gluten intolerance it seems. But even I asked my GI specialist and he was like "that doesn't make any sense!"

basically whenever i eat corn or anything that contains corn or corn starch, I get like a small bump on my lower right back and it hurts and the outside of the calf muscle on my right feels tight and hurts really bad as well. I've read that corn can be inflammatory and I guess its one of those things I just need to avoid as well as gluten. It sucks cos I only recently been gluten free which alone is hard as hell and most gluten alternatives seem to have corn, so now its going to be twice as hard!

Anyone else experience this?

Some celiacs can't tolerate corn, and it is considered a separate intolerance. You might want to look into food sensitivity testing, which Alcat (one of our site sponsors), does.

Some celiacs, like myself, have temporary intolerances to foods, which go away after 1-2 years on a gluten-free diet. I could not tolerate corn for about two years after going gluten-free.

Also, corn intolerance was just discussed in this thread:

      Thank you both. I haven't had access to the test results but will get them and post here.

      The ulcers are prepyloric ulcers. Not sure if that makes any difference.

      Duodenal ulcers are not uncommon either and often result from H.Pylori infections. https://www.healthdirect.gov.au/duodenal-ulcer

      I had what was termed "lesions," and normally ulcers are in the stomach, rather than the small intestines. I'm not sure why they would want you to have her continue to eat gluten, since she had a positive blood test, but as her doctor said, if she is uncomfortable and having symptoms why not have her go gluten-free at this point? If her symptoms improve, it would be another indicator that she has celiac disease and/or gluten sensitivity. This article has some detailed information on how to be 100% gluten-free, so it may be helpful (be sure to also read the comments section.):
