You might want to email the site and ask. One other thing you could do is get the fecal antibody tests done first and wait on the gene testing which is more expensive. Also you recently said you got your first credit card, now that the hospital is forgiving your bill maybe you could use the card for the tests, that way you would be able to pay it off a bit at a time.

Certainly a doctor could order the test for you, I've read some posts where that has happened. How the billing works out for that one, I am not sure. I do know that they will not charge insurance companies, one must pay up front and then file with the insurance company. You'd have to check with them to be sure how it would work out for billing.

You have such a cooperative doctor, yours might be willing to order the test then bill the company. He seems to be trying to help you any way he can. I'd talk to your doctor, then if that doesn't work, email Enterolab.

      Someone recently recommended Superfoods for looking up recipes free of allergens or intolerances.  It's a web site but there's also an app.

      Open Food Facts is a free food database: https://world.openfoodfacts.org/discover  There's an app to access it which is also free (with no in app commercials).   You can use it to look up information about foods such as ingredients, Nova score (to help avoid ultra processed foods), environmental impact and nutritional scores, allergy related information and more.  It can scan a product's barcodes and bring up relevant information about that product.  The project relies on volunteers to share information about products.  We can add information on our favorite gluten free products to share with each other.  It has several gluten free items in the database already:  https://world.openfoodfacts.org/cgi/search.pl?search_terms=gluten+free&search_simple=1&action=process  I think it could make a great tool for people with celiac.

      You could try white willow bark, but make sure it's in a safe dosage range.  Herbs aren't regulated the way prescriptions are.  White willow bark works a lot like aspirin but is often milder on the stomach.  I used to use Nature's Way white willow bark.  I was told it was corn free at that time.  Double check with the manufacturer to make sure it's free of any of any allergens you're concerned with.

      Be sure to bring this up with your doctor, as there is always the possibility that you've got other issues besides celiac disease.

      Thank you - I am fighting the good fight. I feel like when I see improvement then I go back downhill again.  What I do know is if I can’t get past this fatigue and loss of appetite I’m heading for problems.
