Any one out there have any blood tests that would be recommended to ask for from your Dr?

I have been gluten free for 3 months now after my diagnosis and it seems like I am still out of whack, Just wondering if there are any tests that could be suggested, such as thyroid, testosterone( which really seems to be deficient lateley) or any others such as potassium, magnesium, vitamin deficiencies etc. Would be grateful!

I would ask for all of the above, also Vitamin D, B12 especially, iron/ferritin, folale. So many of us are deficient in these things from malabsorption and end up with anemia, osteoporosis, hypothyroidism, etc.

Sorry, lost my manners, welcome to the board. All questions welcomed :)

      Thank you both. I haven't had access to the test results but will get them and post here.

      The ulcers are prepyloric ulcers. Not sure if that makes any difference.

      Duodenal ulcers are not uncommon either and often result from H.Pylori infections. https://www.healthdirect.gov.au/duodenal-ulcer

      I had what was termed "lesions," and normally ulcers are in the stomach, rather than the small intestines. I'm not sure why they would want you to have her continue to eat gluten, since she had a positive blood test, but as her doctor said, if she is uncomfortable and having symptoms why not have her go gluten-free at this point? If her symptoms improve, it would be another indicator that she has celiac disease and/or gluten sensitivity. 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.):
