A member asked:
For people with wheat allergy can we eat oatmeal?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Depends: Many of the commonly available oat products are milled at the same facilities that mill wheat. If so, trace amounts of wheat can contaminate the oats and result in a sensitivity reaction. If you examine the consumer label of these products you may be able to find one that is milled on separate equipment and safe to consume.

I've noticed every time I eat oatmeal for breakfast, I feel bloated/gassy afterward all day or for a good part of the day and sometimes even have an upset stomach. Other high-fiber foods don't have that effect. Could that indicate an allergy to oats?
I get heartburn every time I eat carb foods (pasta, breads, oatmeal etc). Is this gluten related? I don't experience other gluten allergy symptoms.
