Blood Testing For Celiac

I thought I heard there were five different blood tests for celiac, but I could only find four. Any help is appreciated.

The reason I ask is because I may get my blood tests done today, and I want to understand what's going on.

      This isn't the first potential celiac disease treatment in the pipeline that failed. There have been others...

      First of all, being able to return to foods that you have developed a sensitivity to in connection with celiac disease is not a given. You may or may not be able to do this with time. But the ability to do so seems to be connected with the healing of the villous lining of the small bowel which often takes 2-3 years in adults after attaining to consistently truly gluten free diet. But you will just have to test the waters. Experimentation with those foods is the only way. Realize also there are thresholds of tolerance. You may be able to consume those foods without issue but not as often and in lesser amounts than in your pre celiac days. So, start small and go slow.

      Diagnosed gluten allergy but not Celiac

      Welcome to the forum, @Waterdance! Constipation and diarrhea are classic celiac symptoms and hemorrhoids is usually the outworking of either or both of those two problems. But I'm curious about your statement, "I probably don't fit the diagnostic criteria for a diagnosis of Celiac Disease." Perhaps your understanding of what that encompasses is outdated and deficient, as is also true of many physicians. Actually, now there are over 200 symptoms and medical conditions that have come to be associated with celiac disease and the list keeps growing.  And you use the term "gluten intolerance". What does that mean to you? Actually, gluten intolerance is a catch all...

      Hello everyone.  For those of you that I’ve had a sensitivity develop to eggs and dairy (one or both) I am wondering for those who were able to go back to eating these things how did you discover that it was all right? I have a sensitivity to both, but I really miss eggs and I really miss dairy but I’m afraid to try them again so I’m wondering what others have done. Thank you
