A member asked:

Im allergic to eggs, milk, soybeans, wheat and rye, do i have a gluten problem? i do have joint pains, do i need to stay away from wheat or rye?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Not necessarily: If you think you might have celiac sprue, you should have the blood tests drawn to check for it; if those are negative, you likely do not have celiac; one can still have intolerance to gluten or other compounds in wheat, etc. (look up FODMAP); the latter would not cause problems outside of your GI system;
