Gluten-free diet: What has worked? Your tips

Not only do I have possible celiac disease, but I've been told by 2 doctors to eat a low fiber diet (due to endometriosis on my intestines). One doctor even told me to cook my veggies and fruits. I have found people seem to understand about celiac disease and being gluten free, they don't seem to realize that gluten sensitivity (which is me) also must be gluten free. They think being sensitive means limiting gluten, not avoiding it. Sorry, but that is wrong thinking! Gluten sensitive still must avoid gluten. And women especially don't understand why I can't eat salads if the restaurant has nothing gluten free to offer. I guess they think I just don't like salads, when in reality my intestines can't handle the raw veggies or fruits, and the extra fiber.
Does anyone else have this problem?

@airey2 Having two problems, gluten sensitivity and endometriosis must make eating out very difficult. Not being able to eat salads is due to your osteoporosis, not gluten, correct? I never realized that about endometriosis. I am lactose intolerant and that alone creates plenty of problems when eating in restaurants.
