Good morning!

Seeing my primary care doctor this morning and going over my full Celiac panel. Any questions I should be prepared to ask? Any numbers or values I should be wary of? I also had an endoscopy earlier this week and I'm waiting to hear back from my GI doc.

Just wait and see. Only thing is I would be weary of is if they ordered the right tests and if your TTG is "weak positive" they'll not realize that there is no such thing as a weak positive TTG. It's either positive or not. If it's positive you pretty likely have Celiac and should be confirmed with an EGD (sounds like you had that too).

If you already had the EGD you're in a good spot because very few celiacs show up as negative on the EGD as long as you were eating gluten regularly for a couple of months before.

      Anyone diagnosed with Refractory Coeliac Disease can participate (they do not need to be in the UK but would need to be able to speak and understand English as the intervention is facilitated in English language)

      By MelissaClinPsyD · Posted

      Hi everyone, I hope this is the right place to post this, I am new to the forum though hopeful my research is relevant to someone reading this.
