    Hi, I have also noticed small shaped, oval, tiny things that resemble jalapenos seeds or rice crispies. I have been noticing them 10 years back. I even had my stool examined but they couldn't find any parasite or ova, so the doctor gave me a trial of antiparasite medication but after that I just kept seeing the in my stool. One day I tried to squeeze one...

    Gina don't give up, I know how it feels not to know what one has but you have to keep on trying. It took me half my life in order to know what I had. I started to beleive that I was even hypochondriac or something, Doctors really thought I was a freak, their faces expressed that. You seem to have high levels of fat in your stool, seek for the causes of such...

    Well I just read it affects primary the upper small intestine, does it mean the rest of the small intestine isn't damaged? Just take a look at this celiac disease article: The diangostic criteria developed by the European Society for Pediatric Gastroenterology and nutrition requires only clinical improvement with the diet................ keep reading here...

    Hi everyone, As some of you know I recently tested positive for celiac disease by blood workup. I want to undergo a biopsy of the Dermatitis Herpetiformis for celiac disease instead of duodenal biopsy. However, I have this observation to point out. Let's say I decide to go for duodenal biopsy (gut biopsy) and it turns out to be negative, can I really...

    By the way I apologize for my English, I'm a Mexican with northern European roots (Asturias Spain and Basque which most of them come from celitc origins), maybe the prevalence is hidden in Hispanics since Hispanics have a lot of celltic heritage from the northen part of Spain. My mother is a strawberry bonde, blue eyes and fair skin and so is my father

    MD2B, follow your instincts you might be right. You will rely on them once you become a Doctor. I'm sure you will order your patients a lot of test that might come negative and positive, but you know the steps and protocols demand you to follow those guidelines. Go ahead and test yourself you might be right. I, as a patient, prefer to spend money to find...

    Dan, I don't know whether you might have celiac disease or not. There is a normal range for gliadin antibodies and if your results are higher than that, then you should get an IgA antibody and antiendomysium AB. This goes like this: if you are found to have normal IgA blood antibodies levels, and then, the antiendomysial antobody comes negative your might...

    Hello everybody, I want to tell you how thing are going right now with me. I already stopped eating food that contains gluten and I'm feeling better everyday. I didn't get an endoscopy and a biopsy since I can't afford them right now. I resigned from my job and I have no health insurance, pretty sad but I'm planning to get a biopsy once I get another job...

    Thank you so much for your answers. I just called the lab where my lab tests were done, I wanted to know how they are interpretated and an immunologist, from the lab, told me that my results strongly suggest celiac disease. I am quite relieved to know what I have now however the biopsy is pending for confirmation. In fact there are more things to add to my...

Well my story goes like this: I remember having abdominal pain and bloating when I was a kid, I remember telling my mother and father about this but they never...
