Has anyone developed an allergy to gluten post op?

I am almost 15 mos post op and it appears that i've developed an allergy to gluten! i am 34 years old and never had a food allergy before, i have hay fever allergies but depending on what i eat (gluten seems to be the common denominator) within 10 minutes i get itchy watery eyes, severe runny nose and MAJOR sneezing!! sometimes this is in conjunction with a tightness/wheeziness in my chest. My pcp isn't sure that i could develop a gluten allergy this "late in life" but i've heard of some weird stuff happening to our bodies post op. Any idea?? thanks all!!
