    ttp://celiacdisease.about.com/b/2010/03/11/new-gene-study-gives-clues-to-how-celiac-disease-starts.htm Here is another study that says they have linked 26 other genes not related to HLA!! This is exciting news!! It's about half way down the article.

    Open Original Shared Link I couldn't find the one i originally read, but this one says the same thing basically. There are new genes and in the other article, I will keep looking, said that they won't test here for a long long time. I also saw somewhere there are links to Crohn's, so maybe they share a gene too. Who knows. It will be years before anyone...

    I saw the new Gastro today and he was very empathetic. Finally someone who would listen. Unfortunately he wants me to do another biopsy to get a conclusive diagnosis...even though we all know a biopsy does not always come out positive either. However I am willing to do this once more and then if there is nothing, he is at least willing to consider a diagnosis...

    Well I don't know whether to be excited or nervous because I have another consult with a different gastro doc, who is going to give me a second opinion. He doesn't like to do that, but I think he is curious as to how someone can test pos. for ttg while on gluten and negative while off gluten, but not carry either DNA gene that links me to Celiac. I tried...

    Wow, that sounds like a pain in the butt. It's kind of funny..my kids prefer the corn pasta to the whole wheat, and my 6 year old said to me today, I don't want to eat bread either, so I think I will be changing everyone's diet. My 9 year old gets gas and stomach aches all the time too, like I used to when I was a little girl. It will do everyone good....

    After a little digging and researching last night, I came across an article from the University of Maryland. Apparently they have isolated more genes that cause Celiac disease, but our Doctors aren't testing for these, because they are used to the HLA-DQ2 and HLA-DQ8. Due to my mother having a rare genetic disorder, and my sister having 3 rare genetic diseases...

    Wow, this is all very helpful. I didn't know we could get deductions for the food, but that doesn't really matter to me. I will do what I have to do, because it helps. I return to see the gastro doc in March, so it will be interesting to see what he says from there. My family doc told me that if my DNA was negative there was NO chance I could have it...

    Hi there...I am new to this so bear with me. I am having a very hard time, getting a diagnosis and it't driving me crazy. As of July last year I complained of stomach pain, diarrhea, some vomiting bad gas pains, etc, so my doctor suggested she test me for Celiac. I tested positive for the ttg(mildly), then one of the other antibodies came back positive...
