Just an update. I’ve seen the doctor this week who has asked me to do a 💩 sample to check for crohns and colitis. I asked about referral for an endoscopy and my doctor seems reluctant. Not sure if I should push further for this or just cut out gluten and assume it’s an intolerance rather than coeliac?
