Yes gene HLADQ2 was positive 

TTG blood test and total IGA tested on many occasions which have always remained normal, upper GI pain under my ribs since 2022. I had an endoscopy in 2023 which showed moderate gastritis. no biopsy’s were taken unfortunately. genetic test was positive for HLADQ2. extreme bloating after eating gluten, it’ll feel like I’ve got bricks in my stomach so uncomfortably full. the pain is like a dull ache under the upper left almost like a stitch feeling after a long walk. I am just wanting some advice has anyone here experienced gastritis with a gluten issue before? thank you  

HLADQ2 gene positive, negative on the antibody test but gastritis seen on endoscopy, small intestine apparently looks normal, any advice? I know you can’t use the gene test alone for a diagnosis but that being positive along with the gastritis I truly believe it’s celiac any opinions?
