    Hey, sorry! The doctor caught me completely by surprise. I was just going in for a colonoscopy to screen for cancer (it runs in my family) and I didn't know he did a ttg iga test at that point.

    Hi there! So I went to a gastro at 41 because Colon Cancer runs in my family. I did blood work before going in to do it on Monday. First thing the dr says to me before the colonoscopy is "you have celiac!" ...I said "excuse me?" He told me about my blood test results. I faught him and said it can't possibly be. He said well we will take a biopsy...
