There were no other findings except those listed. They said (based on the tests they did do) that he did not have celiac. I knew they told him he did not have it but tonight was the first time I actually saw the report and the tests they ran. I questioned them too. I really hope we can get him in to my doctor soon. I started a gluten free diet in May...

My son-in-law has been sick for several months...he actually started getting tested around the same time as me... last back in Sept. or Oct. He was tested for celiac in November of last year by the same GI group that I went to who said IBS...Intestinal B--- S---. Sorry, but it just means there is something there but they don't know what it is. My GI...

His FB page has a pic of him (January 21 I believe) in a chef's uniform in a kitchen...looks to stocked to be a home kitchen. ???

Well I did just make screen prints of that entire conversation, his home page info, and the main part of his main page (the top). Copied it onto a Word document.

Thanks to both of you for your responses... I don't have 24 hours to pre-med before the test but I do want it to show up as clear as possible if there are issues. I'll talk with them so they can be ready just in case. I don't know what else to do at this point. I have to know...everyone here probably knows how I'm feeling. And I agree...at this point...

Hi again...it's me. I got the results of my biopsy today and they didn't show anything. I didn't expect them to actually since I've been gluten free for almost 8 months now. Is the Anti-endomysial antibody (EMA-IgA) and the ELISA the same test? My GI sent me for more tests today, one was the anti-endomysial antibody test. The phlebotomist had to calls...

Atually, I went gluten free in May. In August I got sick again...partly from H-pylori. I did cheat once after vacation because I felt so bad and I didn't know why and nothing sounded good to eat except something really bad...a patty melt from Steak-n-Shake. So other than that one time (to the very best of my knowledge) I have been gluten free for over...

Thanks Korwyn, Your post is very helpful. While I use lots of dishwashing soap and very hot water, I do use the same dish rag and towels to wash/dry. We don't have regular flour in the house but my husband does eat cookies (Oreos, etc.) and other snacks and cakes. I never really thought about this. Also, I might give my husband a quick kiss after...

Yes, over three months gluten free. I'd been doing my own research including here on celiac.com and I knew something was wrong with my stomach. I've always had anxiety/nervous stomach issues so one doctor (though a very good doctor...just not educated with celiac...but he will be when I go for my annual physical) would always want to treat the symptoms...

Hello, I posted this a couple days ago but I think I posted in the wrong category. I've been reading from this site and forum for several months but never posted here before. Please see my post below. In addition, I didn't mention that on Thanksgiving Day, after preparing dinner but before even serving it, I began having horrible stomach cramps and...
