Unfortunately, with Celiac if I get exposed I get severe gastroenteritis pain and diarrhea for a couple of weeks. We avoid going out to eat and mainly eat at home. For me, Celiac is not the issue.

I went gluten-free in February after my second relapse while trying to taper off Budesonide (I was diagnosed with Collagenous Colitis last November). It was tough at first and I seriously mourned being unable to eat my homemade sourdough bread, but like you I've found many excellent gluten-free substitutes. We have an excellent small bakery near our house that offers all kinds of gluten-free treats, and I have found an outstanding recipe for gluten-free bread from King Arthur Flours using their gluten-free bread flour. It does contain deglutenized wheat starch which gives it a much more typical taste than most gf breads, but may not be suitable for those with wheat allergies. And, I feel much better being gluten-free so will very likely continue to avoid or at least minimize gluten intake. Will be starting the taper to 3 mg of Budesonide next week and fingers are crossed that I don't relapse this time!
