I was raised in fayette county but I live in wv now. I understand about people not getting it, but remember you are not the only one. I think it is harder living in a biscuit/fried food region. Everything is served on, with, or coated in gluten. There is a support group for people like us in Huntsville and another one in Birmingham. Google gluten free support group and whichever city you visit more. Also, there are a lot of us on facebook. You are not alone :)

      I hadn't been eating gluten free before having the antibody test done. I started eating gluten free after having the test done because the gastro PA told me to eat gluten-free for 6 months. I'm now 3 months in.

      GI DX celiac despite neg serology and no biopsy

      By trents · Posted

      I tend to agree with RMJ. Your doc took the reasonable and practical approach to diagnosis. All things considered, it was the right way to go. However, if you have first degree relatives that show signs of possible celiac disease, urge them to get formally tested before they start the gluten free diet.

      It sounds like you have a very reasonable GI doctor, who diagnosed you based on family history and symptoms after eating gluten. I would consider you lucky! The other option would be to make yourself very sick by doing weeks of a gluten challenge prior to an endoscopy.
