Hello,

I was wondering are all soda's like Coke, Pepsi, etc. safe to drink while
on a gluten free diet. I went to my physician this week for several new
ailments and I was wondering if anyone ever suffered from the following. I
am very anemic, which I know if very common in individuals who have celiac
sprue; however, I was told I now have a heart murmur, brought on by the
anemia. Is this common? I also have experienced bleeding and they are going
to perform a (forgot name of procedure) It is a scope they insert through
your rectum to look at your colon. I am terrified. Has anyone had this
procedure? Does it hurt terribly? My Physician said it will last only about
15 minutes, but I am still very nervous. Any information would be greatly
appreciated.
