after the biopsy and endoscopy on tuesday, i went gluten free. I am so happy I don't have to punish my body any more with gluten. I bought some Jarrow's b12 vegan, gluten free, soy free lozenges, 1,000 mcg. Hopefully I will be able to absorb these. Something interesting happened when I went for the endoscopy earlier this week. I wasn't supposed to...

Hello Everyone! This is my first post here. I've suspected that I may be having gluten related issues for some time. I had blood work done to test for Celiac yesterday, and I'll be having an endoscopy/biopsy done in three more days. I noticed this thread focused on left side pain and had to respond. I'm 33, a female, and have been healthy my whole life...
