You should try Pizza Piazza in Chapel Street as it is very close to Malvern area (10 minutes drive) or on the tram/train.

As far as I know Heinz Ketchup is okay - I know that Heinz tomato sauce is fine and that is pretty much the same - just check the ingredients.

Remember that all labels in Australia must state if there is an allergy causing substance such as wheat, milk, nuts etc.

Also if you see something which has Dextrose (from wheat), Caramel (from wheat) or Glucose Syrup (from wheat) these are OKAY as they contain no detectable gluten.

This is one of the best things about Australia (okay lots of things about it are great)...but it's sooo nice to know that gluten must be stated on a label.

In November I traveled for three weeks by car in Australia from Sydney to Brisbane and then over to the east coast of Tasmania. Overall I was astounded at how often I saw the words

      Thank you 😊 I will certainly have those tests done to be thorough although bright red color indicates lower down.  This information is very interesting,  Thank you so much 🙏🏻

      As Plumbago mentioned, bleeding in the upper end of the GI track tends not to show up as bright red in color because it gets acted upon by the digestion process and more thoroughly mixed in with food residues that are passing through the intestines.

      @Bronwyn W Working with your medical provider, you could do a complete blood count test. If you were bleeding say from an ulcer in the stomach (and let's hope not), your red blood cells could be low and your hemoglobin low as well. Your stools may show up as the proverbial "dark and tarry," indicative of a bleeding site further away from the anus. Basically, you may be anemic. Your heart may be beating extra fast as a way to compensate for the decreased number of blood cells, your oxygen saturation may be lower than normal on a pulse oximeter, and so on. But talk to your doctor.

      Thank you for this insight. I have had rectal bleeding after glutening and subsequent constipation (+ IBS-C) and always attributed it to internal hemorrhoids (diagnosed). What I wasn't aware of is the possibility of bleeding further up the digestive tract. Please can you elaborate on the causes and symptoms to watch for?

      Still unsure.....

      Be sure to be eating gluten daily until all of your celiac disease tests are completed (at least 2 slices worth of wheat bread per day for at least 6-8 weeks before any blood tests, and 2 weeks before an endoscopy).
