To biopsy or not?
Scott Adams replied to kathysb918's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
The DGP tests are very accurate, and do indicate celiac disease, so it makes sense for your doctor to follow it up with an endoscope and biopsy. Were you eating gluten daily in the weeks leading up to these blood tests? If not the scores would likely have been higher. If you need a formal diagnosis to help keep you on a gluten-free diet for life... -
Velveeta and Twenty Other Surprisingly Gluten-Free Foods
Scott Adams commented on Jefferson Adams's article in Additional Concerns
If Velveeta contained "traces of gluten" they would disclose it on their label, but they do not: Open Original Shared Link We double checked and they the product is gluten-free by ingredient, and there is no allergen warning for "wheat." -
Symptoms & False negative result
Scott Adams replied to sarab's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
Be sure that you've been eating gluten daily for at least 4-6 weeks before your blood tests. -
Good luck with everything and I hope you've found a solution! Keep in mind that most celiacs and those with gluten-sensitivity don't have obvious symptoms, and many have zero symptoms, so just eating some gluten and having no reaction won't rule them out...but I do hope that you don't have either issue!

Did you get any blood tests done? Normally you would have a blood screening before doing the endoscopy. If so, please share the results. If not, you should ask your doctor to do this before you go gluten-free.
-
I would follow your doctor's advice and repeat the blood test after 6 weeks of eating gluten. If the results are positive I would consider myself, at the very least, gluten sensitive, and go on a gluten-free diet. Due to your unusual circumstances your doctor may ask you to do another biopsy if you have positive blood tests. It's your call whether you would...

For a gluten challenge I believe they recommend at least 6 weeks of eating ~1 slice worth of wheat bread a day before the blood tests. Certainly doing this would be a good idea if you would not otherwise be able to maintain a gluten-free diet for life, or if you had any doubts about whether or not you should be gluten-free.

They should be taking at least 4 specimens when doing a biopsy: So the scenarios you've presented are indeed possible.

I can't tell from your post if your diarrhea issues have gone away. If not, be sure that your diet is 100% gluten-free, and that you don't have additional food intolerance issues (some could be temporary), like cow's milk, other grains, soy, etc. The average time to healing is about 2 years, but this depends a lot on how badly your gut damage was, and...
