My doctors going to do some blood work today to check for celiacs & other food allergies. Do I need to fast or anything before? Any other advise before going? I have not discussed celiacs with my doctor yet, I just called & asked if he could do some blood work to check for celiacs or other food allergies.

No need to fast before the Celiac Panel. Good luck today! :)

This is just my family doctor that is doing the blood work. Are there any questions I should ask or anything to bring up before the blood work?

      Burning Sensation in the small intestine

      Yes, @trents is right, ascorbic acid can be irritating. Do you take it with food? Do you take other supplements or vitamins? Do you eat processed meats? Is your diet high in carbohydrates?

      Be careful with C supplementation. It's ascorbic "acid". Too much can cause stomach and gut irritation.
