Wheat allergy
by bri775, May 09, 2006 12:00AM
I recently had an allergy test that showed I was mildly to moderately allergic to wheat. The IgE number was 1.72. My question is this - does that mean I am allergic to Gluten too? or are wheat allergies and gluten allergies two different things? Should I get a separate Gluten test also?
Thanks for any help.
