Right now I'm staying off corn, too, just to be safe.

what's really scary is that I think my synthetic thyroid medicine is compounded in wheat. I normally take a 175 and 1/2 of a 25 mcg pill before bed. last night I only took the 25 mcg. Still had hives this morning but not as bad. Tonight no thyroid med just to test it out.
Talk to your pharmacist. They should be able to find you a gluten-free alternative. Thankfully in your case, the world is getting better at recognizing that gluten-free is a need for some people.
