If you are following the FODMAP approach then elimination of wheat producing positive results is not due to wheat intolerance but rather due to fructan malabsorption. Fructans are one of the FODMAPs. You will likely find other foods containing fructans such as artichokes, asparagus, cabbage, garlic, etc could be problematic too.
Check the first link in my signature. Besides have an excellent brief explanation of the FODMAP approach at the bottom of the page is a table that you may find helpful. You may find you have problems with other FODMAPs beside fructans.
You might conside buying this book written by the dietitian that worked with the Australian GI doc who devised and tested this approach over the past decade. She was responsible for advising the GI patients on how to manage the FODMAP diet. She is the dietitian who probably knows the most about this approach.
Tell us how it goes.
