Hi, not yet, should get the result this week.. but i am 2 weeks into the gluten contamination elimination diet (see useful links from cyclinglady), it was quite painful the first days, but getting used to it.. will keep you posted

One more question, when do the antibodies develop? If I accidentally get glutened, do they develop immediately or do they develop only if I am exposed for longer time? How long does it take for them to normalize? Thanks, Peter

Cycling lady, thanks, I will try the diet for sure! I do have gallstones which (likely) explain my back pain. I got a little bit worried after I talked to the doc who was not sure about the biopsy and had to consult with another doc... I should have an answer in 2 weeks, in the meantime I will start with the diet right away... big thanks to you and others...

Hi, Belated thanks for your tips. I went through another series of examinations and as a result my.doc (i changed the doc as he was apparently negligent and not caeingring) is not sure about the celiac disease, she suspects ulcerative colitis (i will have biopsy results in two.weeks) and gall.bladder stones. Next, i will have to gluten myself for 6 weeks...

Hi, I was diagnosed with celiac disease in May of this year and have been on gluten free diet since then. Although antibodies very positive, their values were rather low. Biopsy confirmed Marsh 3a, the diagnosis was celiac disease. 4 months into the diet, the antibodies were negative and my symptoms are still present. I'm still losing weight, have...

Hi, I was diagnosed with celiac disease 2 months ago (after a year of suffering) and have been on gluten free diet since then. My symptoms, however, do not seem to disappear. My worst symptoms are severe back pain (mainly right side, i cant recongize if that is muscle or bone related), it is like stabbing and spasms. I also have pain in the mid backbone...
