I can help you out on the gummy worms!!!!! Do you have a walmart near you? There Great Value brand is only 1.00 and it states gluten free on the gummi worms. Watch out for some gummi worms/gummi bears that are not gluten free. One that comes to mind that I found out that is not gluten free comes from the company Brachs? They have a huge bag at sams club that I wanted to buy, but they are not gluten free. So, I stick with walmarts brand :)

Hope I helped you out a little.

I love gummy worms too! I could live on those things! I buy Walmart's Great Value brand because it states Gluten-Free right on the package. As for fast food, lots of places have gluten free menu items. A lot of places will post those items on their websites, but you risk cross contamination. In my opinion, it's not worth the risk to eat fast food.

At Burger King, we get a plain hamburger patty, fries (may or not be safe, depending on where you go), apple fries and a side salad with no dressing.

At Taco Del Mar, we get a Baja Bowl or corn tortilla tacos. All of the meat is safe except for the pork. I believe the fish is breaded. We don't like fish so I never asked about it. The chips and salsa are safe too.

At Taco Time, we get crisp tacos with beef, beans, rice, chips and pico de gallo. I believe the other hot sauce is not safe, but that might be soy and not gluten.

I have yet to see Gummy Worms that are not safe, but some might be cross contaminated. Skittles and Starburst are safe too.

Not Taco Bell. You couldn't pay me to eat there. They put soy in everything. Taco Del Mar and Taco Time are (I think) local chains. I'm in the Pacific Northwest.

There are soy sauces that do not contain wheat, such as San J Tamari Soy Sauce, and another brand (la Choy? have to read the label). But most do contain wheat.

Some of us avoid or don't use much soy at all because of individual reactions, or how soy can depress thyroid function.

      They may want to also eliminate other possible causes for your symptoms/issues and are doing additional tests.  Here is info about blood tests for celiac disease--if positive an endoscopy where biopsies of your intestinal villi are taken to confirm is the typical follow up.    
    • Scott Adams
      In the Europe the new protocol for making a celiac disease diagnosis in children is if their tTg-IgA (tissue transglutaminase IgA) levels are 10 times or above the positive level for celiac disease--and you are above that level. According to the latest research, if the blood test results are at certain high levels that range between 5-10 times the reference range for a positive celiac disease diagnosis, it may not be necessary to confirm the results using an endoscopy/biopsy: Blood Test Alone Can Diagnose Celiac Disease in Most Children and Adults TGA-IgA at or Above Five Times Normal Limit in Kids Indicates Celiac Disease in Nearly All Cases No More Biopsies to Diagnose Celiac Disease in Children! May I ask why you've had so many past tTg-IgA tests done, and many of them seem to have been done 3 times during short time intervals?

      @JettaGirl, "Coeliac" is the British spelling of "celiac". Same disease. 
    • JettaGirl
      This may sound ridiculous but is this supposed to say Celiacs? I looked up Coeliacs because you never know, there’s a lot of diseases related to a disease that they come up with similar names for. It’s probably meant to say Celiacs but I just wanted to confirm.

      I was told it was to see how much damage has been caused. But just told CT with contrast not any other name for it.
