Do you mean chilis?  As in a hot pepper?  It might be an intolerance or allergy.  I can not eat them. ☹️

I have to eat them in extreme moderation, I love the flavor but they irritate my stomach and my intestines. It seems random with how it effects me, most of the times it seems to cause a constrictive and inflammatory effect on my bowels. But I have had a few types and blends that caused D instead of the normal C issues. Funny, I love red pepper but have to have it in just pinches. I love jalapenos and grew up eating cups of salsa etc. (mothers side was hispanic and I live in Texas). Now days I have to water it down and only use a tiny bit -_-.  I miss the heat and spice of things but now most times I just do a chew and spit with the spicy stuff then proceed to eat the non spicy food with the burn still in my mouth for that satisfaction.

Chilies can really irritate the gut, if you curious as to if it is the heat or the nightshade  or caspium family causing your issues try using a different source for spice. Pepper corns like black, white, green and sachuwan are not from the nightshade family nor actual peppers. Wasabi is another option for non pepper related heat. Try these in a elimination diet for find your issues. -_- for awhile I had a allergy to bell peppers after my diagnosis, yeah paprika in that also, thank god that went away.

      They may want to also eliminate other possible causes for your symptoms/issues and are doing additional tests.  Here is info about blood tests for celiac disease--if positive an endoscopy where biopsies of your intestinal villi are taken to confirm is the typical follow up.

      In the Europe the new protocol for making a celiac disease diagnosis in children is if their tTg-IgA (tissue transglutaminase IgA) levels are 10 times or above the positive level for celiac disease--and you are above that level. According to the latest research, if the blood test results are at certain high levels that range between 5-10 times the reference range for a positive celiac disease diagnosis, it may not be necessary to confirm the results using an endoscopy/biopsy: Blood Test Alone Can Diagnose Celiac Disease in Most Children and Adults TGA-IgA at or Above Five Times Normal Limit in Kids Indicates Celiac Disease in Nearly All Cases No More Biopsies to Diagnose Celiac Disease in Children! May I ask why you've had so many past tTg-IgA tests done, and many of them seem to have been done 3 times during short time intervals?

      @JettaGirl, "Coeliac" is the British spelling of "celiac". Same disease.

      This may sound ridiculous but is this supposed to say Celiacs? I looked up Coeliacs because you never know, there’s a lot of diseases related to a disease that they come up with similar names for. It’s probably meant to say Celiacs but I just wanted to confirm.

      I was told it was to see how much damage has been caused. But just told CT with contrast not any other name for it.
