Boost nutritional drink has a fiber orientated supplement. I believe that all boost are gluten-free except chocolate malt.

Perrigo Labs makes a gluten-free "Metamucil" type. It is sold under store brands at Kroger, Sam's, Walmart, and some Targets. The bottle will have a logo near the expiration date that looks like a rectangle with rounded edges and a comma hanging off the right side.

Citrucel caplets, tablets, mix and sugar free mix are all gluten-free as well. Beverly

I LOVE Citrucel Clear Mix. It is gluten-free, says so right on the label, mixes with juice, and produces a wonderful effect. Try it!

Were you specifically looking for a chewable tablet?

We are - no chewables appear to be gluten-free. Let me know too if you all know of one....

My husband says that the fiber choice tablets are gluten free, but I have not called the company.

I've tried them all because I have constant D.... they all seem to work fairly well however Citrucil is a sort of fiber that does not ferment in your gut so there is no gas associated with it, there is with Metamucil. Also citrucil has a chocolate flavor that you mix with milk (if you can do lactose) and its really good.

For me it too a good week of monkeying with how much to take but I take 2 doses a day and I'm good.

I really like the effects of psyllium husks.

I make protein pancakes in the morning:

1 scoop protein powder

8 egg whites

1 tbsp ground flax seed

1/2 cup psyllium husks

Mind you, you have to ensure that you are drinking a lot of water! I started eating these every day and now I have 3+ nice bowel movements a day. It feels so good!

Where do you get psyllium husks that are not already flavored?

      Sounds like you are in the UK. With blood numbers that high, I thought docs in UK would give an official diagnosis without the biopsy. You should ask about that, so you can get support faster.  I'd try to find and print out anything that supports that in your country, get another appointment and take all of it with you. Even in the US now, some docs are doing this, my 19 year old step granddaughter got an official diagnosis here in US with just blood results a few months ago.

      Is soy sauce in Korea also made from wheat like it usually is in US? I'd be concerned that even if asking about gluten, they would not be aware of or think of some like that.

      That's a good idea. It can at least establish the potential for developing celiac disease and can help people decided between a celiac diagnosis and NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity). And it doesn't require a gluten challenge and can be had without a doctor's prescription.

      I have my endoscopy on Thursday, has anyone had the procedure done with a cough? I don't have a continuous cough, but every now and then throughout the day I have sort of coughing episodes. They are a lot better than they were but I called endoscopy and they said to speak to my gp and my gp got back to me and said I need to ask endoscopy if its ok if I have it done still.  Help!

      Thank you so much, everyone. For the moment my doctor just has me taking iron but hopefully we can reconnect soon. I'm going to look into genetic testing, too. Great advice all around and I appreciate it--and you can bet I'm going off the PPIs!
