Travel to Estonia and Latvia

The PA I saw indicates that 1 or 2 tabs a day would be ok (he sounded very unsure of himself). He also told me I had to resume a normal gluten diet for the 2 weeks prior to the test and if not the results could be inconclusive...

I am scheduled for an endoscopy on 12/22/22. So far in my research I have been unable to find information regarding how long does the physical recovery take? I am planning flying to Texas on 12/24 and would like to have some idea of what to expect. I think I have been following a gluten-free regime and then, WHAM, I get uncontrollable diarrhea that...
