Different Reactions On Different Intolerances?


Yenni

Recommended Posts

I seem to get one reaction out of gluten and dairy (the strongest and fastest) and soy gives me tons of heartburn usually... Then there is corn and egg that seem to have a slower reaction. I seem to be able to do fine on them for a few times in a row and then it hits me bad one day (I usually get enthusiastic about being able to eat them so I keep on every day until I get that bad reaction and remember why I stopped all the other times I tried them again- hope never dies.. :rolleyes: ..or I am just stupid.)

Anyone else recognize this "phenomenon"?

I think my daughter is doing that . . . She reacted immediately to wheat the one time that I knew she was glutened. Other times she reacts and there is no apparent cause. She's eating the same thing she eats everyday . . . almost. We know she reacts when she has a lot of blue dye but not a little. Now I'm wondering if the blue dye "builds up" until she finally has a reaction (much less of a reaction than gluten but the same type). Her brother was the same way with red dye but his reaction was a rash. If he had a little, no problems, but if he had a lot within a short time (within a day or two, not one sitting), then he would get a rash.

I know Dr Fine (behind Entero Lab) talks about delayed reactions when eating gluten, so it must be able to happen with any of the intolerances you would think.

I actually thought it was quite common, but not many answered this, so maybe it isn't.

Sure can make things harder trying to figure out what causes it huh? I have been trying egg so many times now and always end up getting real sick in the end, so now I am pretty sure it is egg...I think. It just has to be.

Have you tried the egg where you keep strict limits? Only an egg a week or something along those lines?

I'm a little rusty on my allergy/intolerance knowledge, but it is possible to react to something immediately and other things you can have a delayed reaction to.

I often experience an accumulative effect reaction, I might have real mild symptoms after eating something and think I can get away with it and the more I eat of it the sicker I get.

Also some things can have a synergistic effect, causing a stronger reaction when two or more things are eaten together, like dairy with gluten, or dairy with sugar, or corn with dairy.

It turns out I have tons of allergies and intolerances, and after doing a lot of testing, i'm on an elimination diet eating only 20 foods right now. Since i'm really clean, I'm noticing things more easily. So far I've reacted three times (its been 8 days). First, I had some potato chips (for 2 days - this was a little delayed) and my intestines were upset, and it came out bad the next day. I think it was the canola oil. 3 days later, I tried a b-complex which said it was gluten free, and I was choking on phlegm 5 minutes later. The next day, I had some herbal tea before bed, and when I went to bed my lips were red and my throat was very scratchy. So, three very different reactions.

Gosh, three reactions in the first week of my diet, guess i'm not strict enuf lol . . .but at least i could see them really clearly.

When the testing is done, I'd be very interested in knowing the final treatment or diet you end up with.

I suddenly have a lot of allergies now and am down to a handful of foods albeit on my own, not by a doctor's direction. I experience the symptoms you mention (plus more, none of which are celiac-like). The one that you mention and which really caught my attention was the phlegm, which I do not think is a typical gluten reaction and probably non-celiac. That's why I'm interested. I think something else is happening and haven't found anything conclusive yet. The best I can come up with is that this may be leaky gut-related. Any clues that can be offered will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

      Moms Across America for one. Here's the article that kicked off long thread and more than one thread on Celiac.com this past summer:  Our community feels the testing needs to be tightened up. As of now, GFCO allows food companies to do self-testing and self-reporting. Testing is also done We strongly believe testing needs to be done more frequently and there needs to be drop in, unannounced testing by the FDA and certification groups.

      What celiac watchdog groups have looked into what you mentioned? Thanks.

      Welcome to the forum, @CiCi1021! Well, to begin with, most of us have found it isn't necessary to buy a lot of specifically labeled "gluten free" or "Certified Gluten Free" prepackaged food items as long as you are willing and able to cook from scratch. This is especially true since testing by celiac watchdog groups has cast some serious doubt on how consistently food companies are actually meeting gluten free and certified gluten free standards. It's probably just as effective and certainly less expensive to buy naturally gluten free mainline food products such as fresh meat, vegetables and fruit and prepare your own meals. The only major exception to that in my experience is loaf bread. It's very difficult to make your own gluten free bread products and have them come out decent with regard to texture. The major food companies have invested a lot into that component and have come up with some pretty good stuff that's hard to duplicate for yourself.

      Struggling with costs of all the special food.  Are there any organizations out there that will assist with costs?

      I would ask the GI doc about the elevated IGA score of 401. That one is what we commonly refer to as "total IGA" and also known as "Immunoglobulin A (IgA)". It could be nothing but it can also indicate some other health issues, some of them serious in nature. I would google potential causes for that if I were you. Also, if there is a chance the GI doc will want to do more testing for celiac disease, either antibody testing or an endoscopy with biopsy, you should not cut back on gluten consumption until all celiac disease testing is done. Otherwise, you will invalidate the testing.
