This can be life threatening when it messes with my insulin/food balance. So my doctor has prescribed for years two anti nausea drugs. I don't, thank goodness, have to use them often. This time, my doctor apparently, when...- fda

@sillyyak52, Count another one in the same boat! My family has always been in denial. They said my tummy aches were a ploy to miss school.

My parents passed from health problems associated with uncontrolled Celiac Disease (Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm and Glioblastoma brain tumor). My sister still has her head buried in the sand. I agree with @Rogol72, try the consequences of untreated celiac disease shock treatment. Sometimes people are just scared of having to change their comfortable lifestyle. -

Have you been checked for tTg 6 antibodies? P. S. Can you share your B vitamin test results? -
