Well, I've had the first of my two follow up with the two surgeons that did my laparoscopy and colonoscopy, thank God, I have no tumors, cancer or polyps in my colon, but as my last two colonoscopies have shown I have IBS duh, ascending, tranverse and descending colon spasm, especially descending, ok, tell me what I didn't already know. I've lost 6 more pounds since last time I saw him and he did a lot of blood work this time, said he didn't want to over look anything, I found out he's looking for the celiac/gluten intolerance. I'm so bummed. I've searched the board and I am trying to find a very specific, gluten free diet, as far as everything that is safe, name brands, etc. If there is anyone that can help me, I'd really appreciate it. I haven't heard the results yet, but I had read the symptoms of celiac disease and I have every symptom. Also where do you find gluten fee items, if I need them?? I am soooo frustrated now. I will know more aobut my laparoscopy Monday. Please anyone help, just so I can be ready to go grocery shopping. Also, if the test does come back negative, should I ask for a biopsy? Thanks Cheryl
