I’m guessing it would take a long time. Being I had a blood test the tissue transgluten very high result I’m just wondering if I need anymore test. 
 

if I should just go gluten free a while and see how I feel. I done it for a few days it hard so many things have gluten in it.

 

any advice sound be great

This can very a lot depending on the country, or state within a country, the health plan you have, etc. It seems like in Europe it can take a few months, where most people in the USA have to wait a few weeks, but sometimes longer.

In your case the easiest way to find out how long it would take would be to contact your doctor and ask. Please let us know what you find out.

Ask your doctor, but you may be able to go gluten-free now, and then go back on gluten and eat 2 slices of wheat bread daily for at least 2 weeks before your endoscopy.

      It looks like their most recent clinical trial just finished up on 5-22-2025.

      Kan-101

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      KAN‑101 is still very much in development and being actively studied. It has not been dropped—rather, it is advancing through Phases 1 and 2, moving toward what could become the first disease‑modifying treatment for celiac disease. https://anokion.com/press_releases/anokion-announces-positive-symptom-data-from-its-phase-2-trial-evaluating-kan-101-for-the-treatment-of-celiac-disease/

      Still unsure.....

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      Thiamine interacts with all the other B vitamins.  Thiamine and B 6 make a very important enzyme together. With more thiamine and other vitamins available from the supplements your body is absorbing the ones you need more of.  The body can control which vitamins to absorb or not.  You're absorbing more and it's being transported through the blood.   It's common to have both a Thiamine and a Pyridoxine deficiency.  Keep taking the B Complex. This is why it's best to stop taking supplements for six to eight weeks before testing vitamin levels.

      Yes I took a supplement that had B6 in it, low dosage though. I've stopped taking that. B1 doesn't affect other B vitamin levels?
