Possibility of neuro endocrine tumor having anything to do with celiac or gluten intolerance (or for that matter, manyfood intolerances)?

Is it a stomach or GI tumor?

It is possible, as the tumor is sometimes a result of damage to DNA after birth. http://www.cancer.org/Cancer/GastrointestinalCarcinoidTumor/DetailedGuide/gastrointestinal-carcinoid-tumors-risk-factors

Yes, these are linked to Celiac, especially untreated for 20+ years. It seems to originate as a result of the damage to the cells of the small intestine lining.

      That's how I took it but I was confused because in your previous post you said of your biopsy, "and mine very much showed damage".  In the celiac antibody panel that was ordered, was there a test for total IGA included, aka, "Immunoglobulin A (IgA)"? This one checks for IGA deficiency. IGA deficiency can result in false negatives for the IGA celiac antibody tests such as the TTG-IGA and the DGP-IGA.

      The biopsy results were what said indicative of "weak or partially treated celiac disease".

      Exactly what component was indicative of "weak celiac disease"? Is that a reference to the endoscopy results or the whole picture of the results of the blood test combined with the endoscopy results? Villous blunting is the hallmark of celiac disease.

      Of course, what you breathe in eventually winds up in the gut because it gets trapped in the mucous lining of the airway and throat.
