Help! Is this true - No gluten and No grains for celiacs? I am currently receiving IVIG infusions and the infusion medication has corn sugar listed! Is this a Celiac concern?

Shouldn't be. The problem is the proteins in grains, not the sugars. Although, some people have things like fructose (a sugar) intolerance.

There are many grains that are gluten-free which people with celiac disease can safely consume, including corn (as long is it is not cross contaminated). 

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.):

      I am glad to hear you are not taking acid blocking meds as they increase gut PH which inhibits mineral absorption which, in turn, often causes the body to rob it's own bones of the calcium it needs for various metabolic processes. I was asking about that because acid reflux is very common in the celiac community.

      I am not taking anything except for the multivitamins that I purchased from the supermarket.

      The critic acid and sodium citrate is corn unfortunately and they don’t have to label corn because it’s not part of the top 9 allergen and not mandatory 😭

      Yaya, from the JAMA study you refer to: "Taking 60,000 international units (IU) a day of vitamin D for several months has been shown to cause toxicity." No one on this forum is recommending  taking anywhere near that amount. We're talking about 5-10,000IU daily.
