I am going to see an MD for a dx in a few weeks. I am told to stay on my gluten free diet until I see him.

Can someone provide an accurate list of lab tests by name do I can discuss these when I see him.

I have read look the sections and haven't come across a specific list.

Thanks for helping me out.

This is a web page and fact sheet from the Chicago Celiac Center that explains the testing.

If you are gluten free, the testing will likely be negative.........

Oh, wow I read the original post wrong. Yes, you cannot be tested for celiac if you've been on the gluten-free diet for too long. The antibodies go away. You need to eat a full gluten diet for a couple months to be sure you get a positive result.

      It took me 2-3 years to feel like my gut recovered, and then I still had gluten ataxia issues for well over a decade.  This study indicates that a majority of celiacs don't recover until 5 years after diagnosis and starting a gluten-free diet: Mucosal recovery and mortality in adults with celiac disease after treatment with a gluten-free diet However, it's also possible that what the study really shows is the difficulty in maintaining a 100% gluten-free diet. I suspect that if you looked closely at the diets of those who did not recover within 2 years might be that their diets were not 100% gluten-free. Perhaps they ate out more often, or didn't understand all of the hidden ingredients where gluten can hide. Either way, it shows how difficult recovery from celiac disease can be for most people. According to this study: This article explores other causes of flattened villi:

      Good idea, but make sure she does not require lactose free cheese,it is common in celiac patients.

      I was diagnosed with dermatitis herpetiformis and ultimately celiac disease in September 2024.  I am trying to navigate the world with celiac, unsuccessfully, still having dermatitis herpetiformis outbreaks.  Grocery shopping is difficult, shopping for toiletries is nearly impossible. Dining out is also a challenge. Can anyone recommend iPhone apps that will make these easier?  Thanks so much!

      Welcome to the forum, @pmarklesparkle! Thanks for sharing your diagnostic journey as it may be helpful to others who are getting mixed results during the diagnostic phase. Kudos to the gastro NP who dug deeper and ordered the endoscopy/biopsy. You may also wish to investigate a low iodine diet to get a handle on your continued outbreaks of dermatitis herpetiformis.
