Once in a while, and for me it is typically if I eat certain foods that give me issues, like chicken eggs. Before I was diagnosed the primary area I had pain was in my right side.

The usual thing to do is to re-check your diet and be sure it's 100% gluten-free. This article indicates that 90% of those on GF diets are still getting contamination:

Besides checking your diet (consider trialing the Fasano gluten-free Diet), you might want to get your celiac antibodies re-checked.  This can help determine if gluten is the culprit.  

I thought for sure Gluten was getting into my diet (I did trial the Fasano diet), but a repeat endoscopy revealed a healed small intestine.  However,  I was diagnosed with Autoimmune Gastritis.  You can develop more than one  autoimmune disorder.

Your pancreas and spleen are in the ULQ.  Some Celiacs have problems with their pancreas.  

And the descending colon starts over there, too.  I have had diverticulitis and that's where my pain started, ULQ.

Vitamin and mineral deficiencies can cause the intestinal tract to not work properly. 

Hope you feel better!

      But M&M's contain milk, and would not be at all like a Tootsie Roll.

      I appreciate you validating me because medical is an issue and it's not ok at all they they do this. Some days I just want to call the news media and just call out these doctors especially when they are supposed to be specialist Downplaying when gluten-free when they should know gluten-free is false negative. Now dealing with other issues and still crickets for disability because I show no signs of celiac BECAUSE IM GLUTENFREE! Actively dealing with sibo and skin issues.Depression is the key because thats all they know, im depressed because medical has caused it because of my celiac and related issues. I should have never ever been employed as a bus driver.After 3 years still healing and ZERO income desperately trying to get better but no careteam for celiac other than stay away frim wheat! Now im having care because my head is affected either ms or meningioma in go in tomorrow again for more scans.I know im slowly dying and im looking like a disability chaser

      M&M Peanuts. About the same calories and sugar while M&M Peanuts have fiber, potassium, iron and protein that Tootsie Rolls ("We are currently producing more than 50 million Tootsie Rolls each day.") don't. Click the links to compare nutritional values.  Both are made with sugar, not high fructose corn syrup.  I use them as a gluten free substitute for a peanut butter sandwich.  Try her on grass fed, pasture fed milk. While I get heartburn at night from commercial dairy milk, I do not from 'grassmilk'.

      I see it everyday on my feeds.  They go out and buy gluten-free processed products and wonder why they can't heal their guts.  I don't think they take it as a serious immune disease. They pick up things off the internet which is so far out in left field.  Some days I would just like to scream.  So much better when we had support groups and being able to teach them properly. I just had an EMA blood test because I haven't had one since my Doctor moved away.  Got test results today, doctor ordered a D3 vitamin test.  Now you know what  type of doctors we have.  Now I will have to pay for this test because she just tested my D3 end of December, and still have no idea about my EMA.
