ARCHIVED Negative Dna Test... Now What Do I Do?
nutralady2001 replied to splash's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
Go with your gut ( lol) instinct. I've known for the last 12 months I've been gluten intolerant(did the challenge) but was always "Am I or aren't I" celiac some days it was just too hard I'd see people roll their eyes if I said I was gluten-intolerant . Bits of gluten snuck in here and there, eg I was taking iron tablets for my deficiency not realizing they... -

ARCHIVED How Many Have Self Diagnosed Celiacs?
nutralady2001 replied to a topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease
I was self-diagnosed for nearly 12 months until I had to have an endoscopy/colonoscopy for other reasons. Here is part of what I wrote elsewhere in the forum I come from a family riddled with auto-immune disease, although no-one has been diagnosed with Coeliac Disease.

ARCHIVED Question About Testing And Diagnosis
nutralady2001 replied to nutralady2001's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
Thanks....yes after sleeping on it so to speak have come to the conclusion it's silly to have a blood test done and go back on gluten thereby doing further damage if I didn't have it it wouldn't even be on the report ..............I'll change my siggie line. I am nearly 60 so it looks like there has been years of damage starting when I was 12 -
