Hey I glossed over this before. I'm not going to flame you
Just for future reference, there are some gluten free whey isolates out there. NOW makes one I know. You do have to be careful though as some manufactures will say gluten free just because they don't directly include it in the recipe. That doesn't mean there can't be gluten hiding out somewhere in one of the components, such as the coloring. But if you contact manufactures and ask directly you should be able to find a suitable product if you need to.
Something else for if you do turn out to have celiac...and this is going to be ironic, but glutamine would be a good thing for you to take. Rebuilding and maintaining the health of the gut is one of the things glutamine IS very good for.
Here's a nice page with a bunch of resources at the bottom:

And have you ever tried this, just for info?
