I've been told that I'm allergic to gluten. Is this true, and how do I know for sure?

Yes, you are likely allergic to gluten. Gluten is a protein found in wheat, barley and rye. If you have an allergy, your immune system will react by producing antibodies against the proteins. Symptoms of a gluten allergy can include abdominal pain, bloating, diarrhea, constipation, fatigue, headaches, joint pain, skin rash, and difficulty breathing. To confirm if you have a gluten allergy, it's best to consult with a healthcare provider.
