Please help

Im a 24 male from Australia, in January I had a severe anaphylaxis from a soba noodle/ tempura prawns dish I had while travelling to Japan. Subsequently I came home with many issues, mostly all relating to my gut, several months passed with no improvement so I had many tests done and I was told I had coeliac disease. My issue is because of all the trauma my life has been ruined by a fear of foods, I have had my blood tested against the main allergens (buckwheat and soy) and have had skin ***** testing done for all the elements in the dish I had (including prawn) all of which have come back negative. I am living in such fear that I am finding it impossible to eat anything other than meat and vege, as irrational as it is I cannot bring myself to try different foods, even those with negative results. I have also developed a fear of exercise due to reading too much about allergy cofactors. If anyone has gone through similar any advice would be great as the coeliac disease is a hard enough adjustment without a fear of food allergies.
