I've been thinking about the labeling issue. Unless they figure out some way to account for all derivative products in the wheat/rye/barley spectrum and group and label them as such it seems as if labeling is almost useless. We still have to hunt down sources as it is. I just don't see the government, under the influence of commodity agriculture, as being able to do something that would truly be on our best interest on this. Otherwise it would have been done seven years ago. I would love it if they proved me wrong.

      Struggling to get into a good pattern

      Thankfully those are normal. B12 was on the low end of the normal range when I first got diagnosed. When I last got it checked, it had come up a lot (455 last time checked).

      You can search this site for prescriptions medications, but will need to know the manufacturer/maker if there is more than one, especially if you use a generic version of the medication: To see the ingredients you will need to click on the correct version of the medication and maker in the results, then scroll down to "Ingredients and Appearance" and click it, and then look at "Inactive Ingredients," as any gluten ingredients would likely appear there, rather than in the Active Ingredients area. https://dailymed.nlm.nih.gov/dailymed/  I didn't notice any gluten ingredients in Kirkland Almond non-dairy beverage, however it does contain Locust Bean Gum. Some gums may cause IBS-type issues in some people with celiac disease or gluten sensitivity:

      For the past few months, I've been taking several supplements (a multi-vitamin, an iron supplement, a vitamin C supplement, and a magnesium supplement), all of which state that they are gluten free on the label.
