I think I might be allergic to corn because I never eat it at all (I pay attention to my diet very much and I know what is in everything i eat). I started eating it about a week ago and I think I might be allergic.

How to resolve these symptoms of fatigue/foggy head. Is there some medicine I can take or wait until it goes away?

My son (age 12) developed this allergy last year out of the blue. his symptoms were: coughing, itchy throat, rashes, extreme fatigue and headaches. What his doctor did was to immediately place him on allegra and made us eliminate all traces of corn from his diet. It took about two full days before my son said he felt normal again. What we have to now watch out for are products made from:Corn meal, corn oils, corn starch and dextrose (that one surprised even me). Granted it is a little bit overwhelming in the beginning but you learn to just read labels in order not to go through the awful symptoms. To allieviate the symptoms of your allergy you can take zyrtec (OTC) but you definitely should make an appointment to get tested for your allergies at some point in the future. Hope this helps.

Check your blood sugar.

It is also corn products, like soup with heavy corn starch or corn tortillas. I can't find anyone who has this response or information. is it possible this is an allergy/intolerance to corn?

I think you are allergic to corn.
I absolutely hate corn and never eat it. But when I would eat chicken, I would start feeling sleepy and just not right. I stopped eating chicken and it stopped, but as soon as I started eating it again it came back.
I had the food allergy tests done and it revealed that I was allergic to corn not chicken. most chickens are corn fed and the corn is absorbed into the chickens body.

Yes, probably. my hubby of 45 years gets weak and sick when he eats pancake syrup . It took a couple of years to figure out what this was. He loves corn and tolerates it well. I believe it is the fungus that grows on corn that causes his problem. It would be passed along when corn syrup is made.
Yours is probably different and the allergy is to the corn itself.
