I am trying to figure out what I got glutened from and I'm very confused about this product. I looked online and the FAQs say all Imodium products are gluten free except for Imodium complete. I can't figure out what that product is so I alled the company and they said that's what the Multi Symptom USED to be called. He said that the multi symptom does not contain gluten ingredients but they don't test and can't guarantee. This is so frustrating so I'm looking for any personal experience. I'm desperate to figure out what got me this time.

It is vary rare that a drug company will say something is actually gluten-free.  Usually you will get the  "does not contain gluten ingredients but they don't test and can't guarantee" line.  Generally things like that are considered safe.

I am looking for the same answer.  I find in a list that is printed "Gluten Free Drugs"  Imodium Complete is listed as Gluten Free but I found Imodium Multi-Symptom Relief instead of Complete.  I have IBS also and I would like to find the  answer to this so I don't have to purchase Gas-X, as well.  This covers all the symptoms of IBS.

      I agree with @trents, they should have run a total IgA. What was the normal range for the DGP IgA test? Different labs use different units thus have different normal ranges.

      Get your total IGA checked to make sure your celiac antibody test scores are trustworthy.

      I do eat 4 slices of wheat bread with almond butter. Yes it was a reference to my iron consumption.

      To give you a frame of reference for pretesting gluten consumption necessary to ensure valid antibody testing, here is the current recommendation for those who have been on a gluten free diet: The daily consumption of at least 10g of gluten (about the amount in 4-6 slices of wheat bread) for at least two weeks. Not sure why you mentioned eggs and chicken...
