Celiac Or Gluten Intolerance?

[LuvMoosic4life]

This has probably been answered, but it crossed my mind:

If a person does not have celiac, through the gene tests/ect... but they have a gluten sensitivity or intolerance, is it possiible for the body to be producing antibodies againts gluten, even if they do no thave the gene for celiac, or celiacs at all??

I was just curious b/c I want to get the gene test. At this point I"ve been gluten-free for a while so the antibody test wouldnt do much for me. If I dont have the gene, but have a huge response to the gluten-free diet, could it be possible that my body is reacting against gluten as an autoimmune response? or is it just that it is hard for me to break down and I dont have to worry about an autoimmune reaction???

I'm just starting to realize how hard this gluten-free thing is. EVen though I feel amazing, it depresses me knowing that I may have celiac (but Idont know) and that I may have to follow a super strict diet the rest of my life. WHich is fine, until the social aspect comes in. I"m a musician and my goal is to travel the world, I'm just thinking how hard it will be going to differant countries/states/places ect knowing I may not be able to even have a crumb of gluten. I"m a person who has a reaction to larger amounts of gluten. SOmetimes small amounts bother me, but say actually eating a piece of bread or some regular pasta is what makes me feel like crap, not neccesarily a small crumb....but then I'm not really sure b/c I still dont feel 100% gluten-free yet...FRUSTRATING! i will work out evetually...just cant wait to see what the doc says....
