Thank you! I think they will want to do an endoscopy, particularly if the cyst they found is inside my stomach and not on the outside. If they do, hopefully they'll check in there. I won't have to keep having gluten, will I? I'd sooner not, and just live with knowing the gluten affects me...diagnosis or no diagnosis Ya know, just because all that...

I have heard that about that particular test. I'm keen to get the genetic tests for celiacs and gluten sensitivity done, but wonder if I should since they were neg. I think the answer to that is a definite 'Nope!' Accidental gluten attacks are awful, much less experiencing that 3 week challenge ever again....or for even longer! ...

Ah, so my lack of it over the weeks/months beforehand could potentially have skewed the results then. Bugger That's so true. I've been going gluten-free since after my CT scan...well, sort of unsuccessfully, as every so often I accidentally wind up having gluten. So I'm extra vigilant with lists of ingredients in food I buy, if it's pre-packaged...

Hi. To start, I just want to apologize in advance that this got as long as it did. I just wanted to give as much information as I could as a 'history'. For any/all who read it, thank you So, even as a child I have had stomach issues. I would get bad diarrhea having certain kinds of bread, and I always had a sensitive stomach when I had my sandwiches...
