I just spoke to the allergist's office. He had ordered some allergy/intolerance blood tests.
I tested positive (allergic/intolerant) to wheat, rye and oats. I tested negative to barley and yeast. (Note: the gluten allergy (celiac) would mean cutting wheat, rye and barley - this is NOT what I have.)
I'm going on Monday to have the skin tests done. That is when the allergist puts a drop of serum on my arm and pricks it so the serum enters my body. He then monitors my arm to see if I develop a rash. These tests are used to confirm the blood work.
So, I'm a step closer to having an answer.
