Yep. 

There are lots of biopsy confirmed celiacs without DQ2 & DQ8, despite what the websites say.

As far as I know 03:01 is DQ7.

It is linked to celiac in the med research for a long time, mostly investigated with DQ2&8 but has more recently come under scrutiny as an independent risk for celiac disease. The study linked above showed more than 4% of confirmed celiacs do not have DQ2 or 8. 

Study also showed that 38% of those without in their study of more than 5,000 carried DQ7.

 If you have those genes and a positive biopsy  (intestinal? skin?) you could absolutely be a celiac. (What kind of biopsy?)

Yes it is quite possible. I am one of those oddballs myself with a double DQ9. Have you had the celiac panel blood tests done yet? If not stay on gluten until that is done.

What is IgA and IgG?  Is this in reference to the TTG, EMA and DGP celiac antibodies tests?  Those all were negative?   Some 10% of celiacs are seronegative.  

Are you doubting your celiac disease diagnosis?  Because gene testing is often used to help eliminate celiac disease.   You had a positive biopsy.  While other things can cause villi damage, celiac disease is the most common culprit.

I'm a double DQ7 and was diagnosed with Celiac due to villi damage.  Blood panel was negative. All my health problems went away after going gluten free.  That was 3 years ago.  I'm also curious what other diseases can cause villi damage.

Here are other things that can cause villi atrophy damage (University of Chicago):

      Celiac flare years after diagnosis

      @Aretaeus Cappadocia thank you for your reply and the link, that is very helpful to get a visual of just how small of an amount can cause a reaction. I know I am not consuming gluten or coming into contact with gluten from any other source. I will stop touching/tossing bread outside!

      Thankyou I did find out the Infectious disease is the route to go rather than dermatologist. I did reach out to two major hospitals and currently waiting on approval for one of them in Infectious Diseases to call me. I also did have implants ( I didn't know and sense not properly in my medical. Neither did surgeon)in 2006 and there was a leak 2023 during...

      This Common Blood Pressure Drug Can Mimic Celiac Disease Symptoms

      Dang. I had a moment of hope that I could change my BP med and get off the gluten-free diet. Nope. More seriously, I hadn't seen this articles about this phenomenon before. This is one of the possible answers for people who post here about having celiac symptoms (including biopsy) but normal IgA levels, especially if they are saying that diet isn't helping...

      Zaalouk moroccan eggplant salad

      oops. I didn't see that before posting or I would have at least referenced it. The two recipes are pretty similar, but I think the newer one is a little simpler/faster. Next time though I will search more before posting.

I know I am not consuming gluten or coming into contact with gluten from any other source. I will stop touching/tossing bread outside! My diet has not changed, and I do not have reactions to the things I am currently eating, which are few in number. My auto immune reaction just seems so severe. The abdominal pain is extreme. It takes a lot out of me. I guess I will be this way for the rest of my life if I ever happen to come into contact with gluten? I appreciate the help.

I also did have implants ( I didn't know and sense not properly in my medical. Neither did surgeon)in 2006 and there was a leak 2023 during the same time I was dealing with covid, digestive issues, eyes and skin.Considering I " should  be fine" not consuming gluten/wheat, taking vitamins for sibo and STILL feeling terrible.It has to be parasites. I also take individual eye drops prescribed, could there be an issue there? Anyways my pcp thinks I need therapy because again they don't acknowledge my digestive issues because in my records it shows im fine, hintz the reason I had to go back to bay area hospital:(  I thought skin issues maybe sibo related but I feel and have seen and seriously trying not to think about it because it's disgusting.

      The following two lists are very helpful for anyone who is gluten sensitive and needs to avoid gluten when shopping. It's very important to learn to read labels and understand sources of hidden gluten, and to know some general information about product labelling--for example in the USA if wheat is a possible allergen it must be declared on a product's ingredient label like this: Allergens: Wheat.
