Hi Everyone!

Please wish me luck tomorrow - I have my colonoscopy. Depending on what the biopsy results are, depends on whether or not I need to be admitted to hospital for prednisone treatment....

Please send good luck vibes my way!

Thanks!

Karen

Hi, CanadianKaren: Hope all went well. From a fellow Canuk, Anne

Hi Guys.....

Well, it is over and done with, thank God.....

I really didn't feel too much during the procedure because he gave me Demerol and Valium, so I felt REAL GOOD!!!

The prep stuff was horrid, of course.... The last thing a person with chronic diarrhea needs to take is Citro-Mag and Kleen Prep!!!

He said afterwards that he removed several polyps and took about 16 biopsies from top to bottom, and that they have been sent to the lab for testing.... he said we should hear back by Monday.....

Keep your fingers crossed for me!

      The inactive ingredients list you provided includes pregelatinized starch, which can sometimes be derived from wheat, meaning it may contain gluten. It's best to call them to verify this. https://www.pepcid.com/our-products/max-strength-pepcid-ac-cool-mint

      Welcome to the forum, @Gary Libby! This might be helpful: https://www.celiac.com/forums/forum/27-gluten-free-recipes-cooking-tips/ Also, just "google" for the gluten free version of something you like and want to try. For instance, google "gluten free recipe for meatloaf" or "gluten free recipe for tuna casserole".  There are also gluten free cookbooks available. There are a bunch of them offered on Amazon. The most important thing is to get a good handle on what gluten is and where and how it is hidden in food products. Many things you already eat are naturally gluten free but many things you would never expect to find gluten in will have it. For examples of the latter, Campbell's tomato soup and most soy sauces. Many canned soups contain gluten because wheat flour is used as a thickener and a texturing agent. You must get in the habit of reading ingredient labels, especially the allergen section.

      Hi, is Pepsid safe for those with celiac? If not ( and I belive it is not gluten-free) what are other alternatives? I was not able to find anything but gluten-free tums in CVS. But I really need famotidine. Thank you
