Corned mystery...

Please note the first line of my last post. I'm an idiot (you're an idiot!).

So I had tuna last night, modified tuna salad ... no mayonnaise, i'm not that corn illiterate... right? So tuna is one of the things I might be allergic to. Had to test it, chose Kroger brand tuna (Light Tuna, water, vegetable broth (carrot, celery, and soy bean) and salt.)

ingredients:
tuna (above)
acorn squash
red bell pepper
flax seeds
sea salt
sweet relish

I believe I've corned myself. I'm having a reaction, it could be the tuna (from corn in the can they don't mention or an actual tuna allergy), it could be sweet relish because you know what, I DIDN'T EVEN READ THE GODDAMN CAN! I can't believe it. It never occurred to me that sweet relish should be read, I just tossed it in.

mother of god

welcome back to nausea, tight itchy throat, foggy head, feverish feeling ... I ate it last night with no issue except some mild indigestion (I assumed it was from eating so much of that yeast bread with it). Had it again for lunch today and my stomach started reacting within about 15 minutes.

like clockwork, this allergy stuff.

Corn Allergy Diagnosis Confirmed

I still have trouble believing that the little red bump on my arm would lead to such a change in my life. Months of abdominal pain and thousands spent in medical tests only to confirm that all of my problems seem to be stemming from a corn allergy.

Now I'm trying to learn how to live with this, making my own bread and granola, my own salad dressing, home cooking everything ... no more processed anything! It's a better way to live, but it's tricksy.
