Stomach reaction

    So ever since I was a kid I have had terrible reactions to things... some were simple I break out a little, some full blown hives and the most fun anaphylaxis. I haven't been back to an allergy doctor in some time now... Lately I have tried to introduce new foods into my diet which have not gone well... I do not have hives I do not have any skin reaction however, my stomach feels like its being ripped apart and gets distended to no end... its the same foods each time... My question is, are there "allergies" that react in this manner? Or is this just my stomach being a food snob?

Unfortunately no this is not appearing to be a gluten allergy.. I specifically tried to attack my stomach with gluten things ( glutton for punishment ) but I actually didn't have a problem.

Just curious are you reacting this way when you eat wheat/flour products. I work in health industry and I have found a lot of people have an allergy to those products. Try a gluten free diet for a couple of weeks and see how you do. Good Luck!
