Default Is it possible to be allergic/intolerant to just...

white bread and pasta, but not other grains with gluten? I can eat loads of oatmeal and whole wheat breads and even baked goods (muffins, scones...) just fine. But a pasta dinner with ciabatta bread or a few pieces of pizza (especially with a beer) and I'm all bloated and doubled over with stomach cramping and gas.
Or could it be something else?

hey sourpuss,
when you have the pasta do you have tomato sauce with it? it almost sounds like the culprit might be tomato sauce since pizza and pasta both have it on them. i know when i breast fed my children i had to avoid any thing with tomato on it or in it because tomatoes are acidic and it bothered my babies when i fed them after i consumed them. is it only pizza and pastas that are doing this? you can develope an allergy to anything at anytime in your life even if you have eaten or taken it for the most part of your life. well i hope you get some answers to your problem. lynne

If you are intolerant to gluten, anything in it would cause the same reaction. Oatmeal is usually okay, it usually does not have gluten. If you are worried you can cut out the foods that are bothering you and one at a time reintroduce them and see which ones you have a problem with.. it can help you figure out the culprit. Hope you feel better

It could be enriched flour, homogonized oils - look at the first few ingredients and most likely that could be it. Also, sometimes food allergies are mistaken for a far more serious condition such as GERD - look it up and check out the symptoms, it sounds like they may be similar to what you are experiencing and find a good GI doctor - it wouldn't hurt to visit a GI doctor to get some tests run so that you can rule out the possibility of GERD or not. Good luck.
