Unfortunately the Department of Defense has guidelines that don't allow people with Celiac Disease to join the military.. However, since you were diagnosed while already in they probably won't send you home.   But... who knows depends on your commanding officer I guess.   Here is an article for you

      Burning Sensation in the small intestine

      No, I meant two years ago when you had your most recent upper GI scope.

      Can You Really Trust Gluten-Free Menus? What Every Celiac Needs to Know Before Eating Out

      Sorry, the question is if there is any insight as weather there would actually be gluten from the beer that would be in or on the chicken after cooking. We know alcohol evaporates off during cooking. My guess is the gluten would remain on the chicken skin, as gluten is not alcohol-soluble.
