On the contrary, many celiacs spend decades feeling unhealthy even though they are on 100% gluten-free diets, and many are even on grain-free and other very restrictive diets. Some feel like they are going crazy and cannot even venture outside or do any travel without bringing their own food. This "alarming" headline is for those celiacs who are not recovering...

Can others relate?
Scott Adams replied to christen1122's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
It is interesting that you have had severe neck and back issues. One thing that I need to update in my own story is that I had severe neck pain for over 5 years after my diagnosis. I always blamed it on my desk job, and working to much on a computer. Since my work patterns haven't changed much since the time of my diagnosis, but the neck issues finally went... -

Tough road...

This company has one, but I'm not sure if they ship where you are: https://www.imaware.health/ -
This list is old, but there are some resources listed in Oklahoma. Please contact them and let me know if any are no longer valid: You also might want to contact Celiac.org, as they are a national support group. You could start your own group as well, and you could ask them how to do this.

If your doctor won't run the CD tests for you there are inexpensive mail order test kits widely available as well. Certainly your symptoms sound consistent with gluten sensitivity or CD, but to be sure you'd need to be tested. -
Lisinopril is very widely used as a first step blood pressure control drug. I've not heard of any correlation with it as a cause of celiac disease or gluten sensitivity. Given that so many people use the drug, I would be surprised if there is such a correlation, but it's not impossible.

Are you saying that you were diagnosed with celiac disease but your doctor did not tell you to go gluten-free afterwards? That would amount to malpractice. There is no excuse, yet after 25 years of running this site we still hear stories like this...sad!

The only medication I've seen possibly linked to celiac disease is Benicar, and it's unclear if there is a real link, although there are lawyers suing the maker for this: https://www.celiac.com/tags/benicar/

First, if you have access to health...

One Blood Test Can Now Diagnose Celiac Disease without Biopsy
Scott Adams commented on Scott Adams's article in Diagnosis, Testing & Treatment
This is a small percent of people. What this article means is that the vast majority of people will not need a biopsy, and it is no longer the "gold standard" of diagnosis. The gold standard is now blood screening, and only in a small number of cases should a biopsy be considered. Gastroenterologists will be bummed. 😄- 35 comments

@Bouchra hopefully the 3rd time is the charm! Actually it's pretty awful that this is still happening given the vast amount of information that anyone can find with a simple search about celiac disease. You should only need to be diagnosed once, and then should go gluten-free for life right after, no if's, and's, or but's! There is no such thing as "celiac...

In case you are interested we've done many research summaries and articles on diabetes and celiac disease: https://www.celiac.com/celiac-disease/celiac-disease-amp-related-diseases-and-disorders/diabetes-and-celiac-disease/
