could i have celiac disease?

male

weight 47 kg

height 5'8

age 20

reasons why i think i might have celiac-

-underweight and dont gain weight no matter how much eat.

-gluten consist a very huge part of my daily diet.

-my father had psoriasis (got cured through photon therapy and have not came back from 3 years)  which is a autoimmune disease similar to celiac and my mother though not psoriasis but also gets skin related infections/disease quite often.

-i have acne on my face,few dark colored kinda dried looking small acne on shoulders and back.

-almost everyone in my maternal family is skinny and im sure that none of them have went through celiac diagnosis or even know what celiac is and my maternal grandfather is known to be the skinniest in all my family even when he was young,and atm he is 92.....i've heard people with celiac who eat gluten dont live this much....

one more thing,i went through thyroid test and the test report was ok.

so...what do you people think?

If you suspect celiac you need to get tested, there is a blood test which they normally follow up with a endoscope and biopsy to check for villi damage. You have to be eating gluten daily for the test so do not start the gluten free diet yet. Read up more here.

      No, I meant two years ago when you had your most recent upper GI scope.

      Hello everyone, I am a young adult living with both Celiac disease and achalasia. I am looking for some inspiration to start raising awareness for people with Celiac disease on instagram. Please reach out to me if you have any tips and ideas on what is important to share to the world.
