Just to be sure....try no gluten for 1 month as it takes this long to get out of your system. My #1 enemy was gluten and I never knew this. My GI dr did a celiac genetic blood test and I was shocked it came back positive. Gluten makes me bleed and blocked up the worst! This surgery is forever and I wished I’d known all this before having mine.  Gluten is highly inflammatory and it takes 30 days to get it all out of your system.  This surgery won’t fix your disease and you’ll still have issues on/off after sadly. Wish I had known this too.  All my best to you and wishing you good health ongoing

Oh wow, so you had Celiac's and UC? I was tested for Celiac's back when I was diagnosed and it was negative, so I never really worried about gluten after that. I suppose it couldn't hurt to give it a try for a month. Thank you.
