Hello again everyone here is the latest update. I called the gastrologist earlier today and his office called me back and I explained to them that I got my results back from my biopsy which showed that I did not have any signs of celiac and proceeded to ask them if it's not celiac then what else could be causing the atrophy in my duodenum, rapid weight loss...
