  1. I just had the celiac panel done on March 4, and got the results back March 12 (today). However, my allergist said he had "rushed" the results, so it might have taken even longer in some places.
  2. I just got my blood test back (over the phone so I don't have exact numbers). My allergist says the test is negative, but my Igt is high. He recommends an intestinal biopsy, which I've already got scheduled as well as a colonoscopy. Does anybody know what Igt is, and what it means to be high? I saw a gastrointestinal doctor, and he put me on prilosec...
  3. I haven't started the gluten-free diet, because I want to see how the blood tests work out. If I am still eating gluten, do I need to eat more before I get testing? I've read some post that say four slices of wheat bread every day for two weeks? That seems like a lot...

If the gluten test/diet doesn't work out, then keep...
  6. So are mental fog, OCD behavior, and forgetfulness possible symptoms? I have those same things, and I'm going to get tested in March. Does anybody else have these type of mental symptoms and have had a gluten free diet work for them? Good luck!!!
  7. I am 20 years old, and I am wondering whether I should be tested for gluten intolerance. Three and a half years ago, I moved to a new school and was very stressed. I lost a lot of weight and have not been able to gain any of it back, except when I was put on birth control. No matter how much I eat, I still cannot gain. Recently, I have been having a lot...
