Guest guest Posted November 10, 2008 Report Share Posted November 10, 2008 Over the past few months I have had some anaphalactic shock reactions. I've talked with my new GI doctor (who actually does his job! Listens, tries to help, and explains/understands beyond a pill!) who sent me for allergy testing. Of course the test came back negative so he can't determine what is causing the reactions from my blood work. We had a long talk prior to my blood work about how the digestive tract has it's own eco system which is constantly changing and the elimination diet is they best way to determine what food sensitivities are going on. I noticed that I sometimes had reactions to corn based products, which was one of the main things I wanted tested. So for the past couple weeks I've been eating various products with corn to see how I reacted, and I've discovered that the modified corn products cause me problems! I've noticed Modified Corn Starch on a lot of labels lately too! Just thought I'd share this in case anybody else has been going through the same thing. When will scientist learn they shouldn't play with our food supply! Also, a few weeks back someone gave me a Bee M.D. cough drop in which I had a very sever anaphalactic shock reaction from. I'm not sure what is hidden in them, but I'd recommend avoiding them if you have food allergies! They are all natural, organic, and supposedly help save bees, but they nearly killed me! I know many on here have multiple food allergies, and small children with allergies, so I just want to throw a warning out there. Since we are getting into cold season, please be very cautious with medications. Even all natural remedies can be dangerous! Jae Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
