You can have a blood test for gluten and similar allergy tests for eggs. But my doctor recommends doing elimination diets for 2 weeks and then add it back in. Such as, go off wheat for 2 weeks then eat a whole bunch of wheat and see if you get sick. Then repeat this up to 3 times. Then move on to other things. Another way to do it is have a large amount of whatever, like tomato juice for fructose or milk for dairy, on an empty stomach and wait to see what happens. That is too risky for me!

--------------------
IBS-A for 20 years with terrible bloating and gas. On the diet since April 2004. Remember this from Heather's information pages:
"You absolutely must eat insoluble fiber foods, and as much as safely possible, but within the IBS dietary guidelines. Treat insoluble fiber foods with suitable caution, and you'll be able to enjoy a wide variety of them, in very healthy quantities, without problem." Please eat IF foods!
