What Causes Villous Atrophy Besides Celiac Disease?
Scott Adams posted an article in Additional Concerns

The article does say: "Taco Bell does not specifically label any of its food gluten-free, and they don't recommend it for people with celiac disease." There is also a chance of cross-contamination.

Welcome to the forum @Sof, and thanks for sharing your story. In your case it seems like you've found your answer, so trying to eat gluten for weeks to get tested probably doesn't make sense. At the very least, it sounds like you are gluten sensitive, and there are not current tests for this condition, and the treatment is the same, a gluten-free diet.

Get Your Super Foods: Eating High Nutrition Without the Oxalate
Scott Adams commented on Monique Attinger's article in Spring 2016 Issue
The article says “However, whole oats are high in oxalate, and the oat bran has confusing test data.” See this site which confirms oats are high in oxalates: Open Original Shared Link -
it definitely sounds like you could have celiac disease and DH, based on the symptoms you’ve described. But the only real way to know is to get tested. Have you asked your doctor to give you a blood panel test for celiac disease? It would also be a good idea to see a dermatologist and get a biopsy on what sounds like the DH blisters. If you can’t afford tes...

OTC Medication
Scott Adams replied to Linda Greenbrier's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
I get Kirkland brand acetaminophen which doesn’t say gluten-free on it but lists all ingredients. Note that it does contain: ”Pregelatinized starch, sodium starch glycolate: derived from corn, potato, rice, or wheat but chemically processed so gluten remaining is unlikely.” -
DiGiorno Debuts Gluten-Free Frozen Pizza
Scott Adams commented on Scott Adams's article in Gluten-Free Foods & Beverages
I mostly agree with you, however, we did get a positive gluten test using a Nima device where one out of two crusts we tested showed not gluten-free, so there may be a manufacturing issue with their wheat starch provider: -
The average time to recovery for celiacs is about two years, but it seems odd to me that you got better, then worse again. I agree with @trents and you should double check your diet for hidden sources of gluten. In Europe there are more gluten-free products made using wheat starch, so if you include those perhaps exclude them. Here are some more ideas...

Intestine healing
Scott Adams replied to EdenLaShae's topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease
Probiotics are helpful, and I use this one because it contains Bifidobacterium Infantis, and lots of research has been done on this in connection with celiac disease: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08NSXBYVV?psc=1&ref=ppx_yo2_dt_b_product_details Double check your diet and make sure you are not getting any hidden gluten, and note that the average... -
Questions and concerns
Scott Adams replied to Makky's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
I don't think it would make any sense to get the endoscopy 4 weeks from now if you've already been gluten-free for a while. If you can't push it up sooner than you may want to cancel it, but it could still provide useful information on the condition of your gut, if you are concerned about that. Getting it sooner would be a better option, and you're already... -
Can COVID-19 Pandemic Increase Diabetes and Celiac Disease?
Scott Adams commented on Scott Adams's article in Latest Research
You're free to make your own choice about this, but be sure to also weigh in the risks of getting covid-19 with your current chronic health issues, as the negative health consequences, up to and including death, are very well known and studied now, and are far greater than any risk of side effects with any of the vaccines.- 6 comments

Do these symptoms fit?
Scott Adams replied to alittle's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
Hi @Dianasolvei, welcome to the forum! If I were pre-diabetic I would go on a paleo diet. Everything I've read on this points to too many carbs & sugar. Being gluten-free if you are gluten sensitive of celiac could also help improve your blood sugar. -

Sweet Baby Ray's Bbq Sauce
Scott Adams replied to cmbajb's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Sweet Baby Ray's does make the "gluten-free" claim on many of their sauces on their web site, but it looks to be a work in progress, so hopefully any issues will be resolved soon: https://www.sweetbabyrays.com/FAQ
