What Blood Tests To Ask For...

When I went to get my blood tested for Celiac's about a month ago, they only took 1 vial and the results were negative. I have no idea which antibody they tested for, all they said was that it was negative.

Is 1 vial enough to cover all the antibody bases associated with Celiac's? Could someone tell me exactly what to ask for to do a 'complete' Celiac panel?

Bear with me, I completely don't understand all the different antibodies and such that they look for.

Any help is greatly appreciated! :)

      This article has some detailed information on how to be 100% gluten-free, so it may be helpful (be sure to also read the comments section.):

      Wheat flour is fortified with vitamins in the U.S. as a part of USDA policy. Gluten free facsimile products are not fortified. There is no government mandate for such. When you remove wheat flour by going gluten free, you may be removing a significant source of vitamins.

      Okay.  That doesn't answer the question, but thanks anyway.
