Thanks so much. Yes I’ve decided to eat gluten free again and my stomach pain has improved so much as well as my bowel movements. I’m making sure to eat a mostly Whole Foods plant based diet and supplementing vitamin d3, along with a multivitamin. Thanks for the reply.

Biopsies can miss it. That’s why the first 2 gi doctors asked me to stay off gluten. The second one said something like it’s impossible to test the entirety of the small intestine. I don’t know what else to do besides just waiting it out. I’ll back in the states in July & once I’m back in the states I’ll follow up with a different GI - due to the move...

Ok I’m understanding now! Good grief it was misleading! So the only thing that is indicative of celiac disease would be the first test, deaminated gliadin abs IgA, that increased from 19 to 30 while on gluten? And of course my genetic markers.

I’ll have to try to screenshot my labs or look them up again to give you the results. Sorry about the confusion. I’ll get this updated to make it more clear soon. Eating wheat was over 6 months because all this happened during covid and I was a covid RN at the time so they kept putting off my biopsy and my labs which is why there is a 6 month dif...

Hello: I was d/x with Celiac disease awhile ago. I had a negative biopsy, but the MD d/x me anyways based on symptoms, and labs. Fast forward and the MD retired and I moved onto a new GI MD in the same practice. She stated that she didn't believe I had celiac due to negative biopsy. We redid labs and an upper endoscopy. Again endoscopy negative. She...
