    Thanks for your input Scott, I appreciate it. Being gluten free so far has helped so I am going to stick with it and hope for continued improvement. I remember reading about "latent celiac," where only EMA is positive, in a book someone recommended here. Wondering if that and/or early celiac (like you and trents said) is the answer.

    Hi trents, thanks for the response. The 2nd opinion doctor said that if my CRP is still elevated at that time, he would advise me to look at Crohns/UC or another autoimmune issue.

    Hi all, I've been experiencing some new chronic GI issues for about 2 years now and was leaning towards celiac being the answer, but now feeling very lost after a confusing diagnosis process. My symptoms have included things like severe bloating, diarrhea, mucus, abnormal colored stool, worsened depression/anxiety, etc. I had a very borderline...
