Apparently, the new GI doc is not buying the previous diagnosis of celiac disease and feels the need to confirm it for himself/herself. I would look for another doctor. -

She has had GERD and bleeding ulcers previously and is having those issues now. She also has systemic sclerosis, so we know those things are issues with that. We will find her a new doctor back home too. -

I find myself eating unsweetened applesauce. Then having to take something for pain.😞. However, im wondering if I'm just creating a larger mess for myself if I should not be taking ibuprofen. I am open to suggestions and thank you so much !!
