      @trents You're right, thanks for pointing that out. On @somethinglikeolivia comment regarding potential ingesting or cross contamination; there is a product marketed in Australia as "GluteGuard" which is designed for just this scenario. It is not a defence for and is not recommended for use by full-blown celiac disease but, it helps those with GI. I'll be reading slower in future so I don't skim over the subject matter. Cheers.

      @Knitty_Kitty Noted with appreciation.

      @N00dnutt, as OP explained earlier, she had a gastroscopy done earlier while she had been eating plenty of gluten for months. It was negative despite strong positive antibody scores.

      The best way to determine positively is to undergo a Gastroscope. Your Endocrinologist will assess the condition of your "Villi". These tenticles are what extract the nutrient from what we ingest. The Protein in Gluten is like acid to these tenticles.

      It occurs to me that this might be a good application for gluten test kits, since the test kits seem to require samples in power form and pills can easily be rendered in that form. According to this article, and it seems to be current, there are three choices when it comes to gluten test kits: https://www.verywellhealth.com/gluten-detectors-and-test-kits-comparing-the-options-4126736 While it is not an inexpensive solution, at least it shouldn't be necessary to use very often once you establish a med either is safe or not.
