I would hazard a guess that you'll get your results tomorrow. My test results took exactly 3 weeks to the day...and I didn't get them until late in the day East Coast time.

When I did mine, they said up to six weeks before results and mine came in sooner. It was worth the wait as it revealed that I had the gene, we wondered where my granddaughter had gotten the celiac disease, it was me. Darn. She has been gluten-free for ten years now, and I am gluten-free for five years now (intolerant/sensitive). Barbara

      Correct. I’m doing both in the same go though. Thanks for clarifying before I confused someone. I’m doing a colonoscopy for something else and then they added the endoscopy after the test.

      It is a biopsy but it's not a colonoscopy, it's an endoscopy.

      Well I’m going on the gluten farewell tour so they are about to find out lol. I keep saying biopsy but yeah it’s a scope and stuff. I’m a dummy but luckily my doctor is not.

      The biopsy for celiac disease is done of the small bowel lining and in conjunction with an "upper GI" scoping called an endoscopy. A colonoscopy scopes the lower end of the intestines and can't reach up high enough to get to the small bowel. The endoscopy goes through the mouth, through the stomach and into the duodenum, which is at the upper end of the intestinal track. So, while they are scoping the duodenum, they take biopsies of the mucosal lining of that area to send off for microscopic analysis by a lab. If the damage to the mucosa is substantial, the doc doing the scoping can often see it during the scoping.
