You might want to email the site and ask. One other thing you could do is get the fecal antibody tests done first and wait on the gene testing which is more expensive. Also you recently said you got your first credit card, now that the hospital is forgiving your bill maybe you could use the card for the tests, that way you would be able to pay it off a bit at a time.

Certainly a doctor could order the test for you, I've read some posts where that has happened. How the billing works out for that one, I am not sure. I do know that they will not charge insurance companies, one must pay up front and then file with the insurance company. You'd have to check with them to be sure how it would work out for billing.

You have such a cooperative doctor, yours might be willing to order the test then bill the company. He seems to be trying to help you any way he can. I'd talk to your doctor, then if that doesn't work, email Enterolab.

      Hello, I was very stick,  with flu like symptoms, but my virus panel came back negative and we couldn’t figure out what’s going on. The doctor then added a celiac panel.  Has anyone ever had such a dramatic change?  What are the odds this is true celiac I am going to have an endoscopy, but it’s expensive and I just feel like why can’t the labs be enough?

      Eating out in general is full of risks, but this article may help:

      This kind of question is always difficult to give a definitive answer to because of so many variables. One such variable is the sensitivity of the individual celiac to small amounts of gluten cross contamination. An amount that causes a reaction in one celiac many not in another, or at least not be discernable which, of course, does not exactly equate to being "safe".

      I don't live in the US, but based on this thread, I wouldn't risk it:   https://www.reddit.com/r/glutenfree/comments/1n2ehw8/cracker_barrel/   This app is helpful: https://www.findmeglutenfree.com/

      I see that Cracker Barrel restaurants have a gluten free menu (not all locations, but one confirmed that they do). I was wondering if it is safe for my 5 year old son with celiac disease?
