Somewhere around half of celiac sufferers say they suffer pain from even the purest certified gluten-free oats.
But you could use quinoa!

I met a celiac person's wife the other day and she told me that if you stirred regular pasta in the cooking water with the same spoon as his GF pasta, he would violently hurl almost immediately.
I'd say you'd pretty much have to buy your oats from the farmer and thresh them yourself. There is so much cross contamination and if you're anything as sensitive as this guy, I'd pretty much only eat vegetables.
Quinoa is pretty good and its flavor is immeasurably improved by lightly toasting in a cast iron pan first.
