Hello, I don't know if you check this at all, but I came across your posts while I was looking for answer. I have been experiencing the EXACT same symptoms that you listed. I know it has been several years, but I'm also a 22 y/o male and doctors have been giving me the run around as well. I noticed that your posts just stopped; I was wondering if you ever found out any answers.

Just got my blood work back. the doctor only tested c-reactive protein, sed rate and endomysial ab. All came back negative. Should I just start the diet and see if my symptoms get better? I don't know what to do? -

ARCHIVED Is Bloodwork Suppose To Take This Long?
lookingforanswers17 posted a topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
I have been anxiously waiting the results of my bloodwork for celiacs that was done over a week ago. The doctor said they have gotten partial results back but are still waiting on the rest of the results before they tell me what the bloodwork says? Is it normal for the bloodwork to take this long? Usually I get bloodwork back in a day or two but its been... -

ARCHIVED Just Got Bloodwork (is This The Right Tests?)
lookingforanswers17 posted a topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
I just went to the doctor today and he suspected celiacs. He ordered bloodwork but the test are somewhat different than what I've seen on here? Will these test show celiacs? Sed rate (this one is always normal for me so I don't know why he is testing it again) also, C-Reactive Protein and Endomysial Ab? Is this one for celiacs? Should he... -
I am going to the doctor this week to request testing for celiac disease. Hopefully this will the beginning of my road to recovery and feeling better. I'm excited about the testing but scared in a way that it will come back negative and I'll be left with no answers again as to why I am so sick. It's been over a year since all my symptoms started. Hopefully...

Are stool tests reliable. I did not specifically get tested for celiacs but they did test for many things with a stool test. the only thing that came back abnormal was a reaction with gliadin. I believe the scale was from 0-20 with 20 being high. I scored a 41. The test was done through metametrix. just wondering if this is in anyway an indicator of celiacs...

I'm new to all this and had a question. I just had routine bloodwork done which all came back normal. Would celiacs show up in routine bloodwork or do I have to specifically request blood work for it?

I have suffered from what i believe to be symptoms of celiacs for over a year. back pain, abdominal pain, bladder pain and a host of other symptoms. the doctors have basically given up and just blown me off. They said I have ibs and now they have me on anxiety medicine which hasn't helped. I am anxious but only because all of the other health issues i have...
