  1. Update: It seems I jumped the gun on interpreting my bloodwork. It just updated today and my TTG was >250 (reference <12) Thanks everyone who attempted to help, I have officially been diagnosed and time to start the gluten-free lifestyle!

I am not on any medications except birth control. My younger sister has a gluten sensitivity (she has been gluten free for 12 years now) but her bloodwork came back negative as...
  8. Hi all, I had a colonoscopy and endoscopy for GI symptoms, my report came back stating: Diagnosis A. DUODENAL BIOPSIES SHOWING PARTIAL VILLOUS ATROPHY WITH INCREASE IN MUCOSAL AND EPITHELIAL LYMPHOCYTES SUGGESTIVE OF CELIAC DISEASE.
