  1. Hello. My symptoms started in April and I've had numerous blood tests and an MRI back in June and nothing has flagged up as abnormal. I also tested negative on the ttg blood test twice, ruling out coeliac disease. However I am still unconvinced, particularly as my grandmother had coeliac and so I went gluten free in late Septmeber. Whilst I have seen some...
  2. I have been tested for coeliac (ttg blood test) and twice it has come back negative and so my GI has said that I don't have coeliac disease and have IBS. However I am still suspicious as my grandmother was a coeliac and I am exhibiting many of the symptoms and so I'm not sure why the GI was so quick to dismiss it.

  6. Coeliac blood test came back negative so literally I don't know where to go from here
  7. I forgot to add that I have also had an intermittent dry mouth and coated tongue.
  8. I have been having a number of very strange symptoms for the past 7 weeks. It started with upper abdominal pains and discomfort that radiate to the back and sides. I then developed a light-headedness and frequent headaches. I have been having problems concentrating along with brain fog. However sometimes the head symptoms ease but then come back a few days...
