  1. I had been off gluten for 5 months when I visited the new doctor, he immediately wanted me to resume eating gluten for one month and then have the endoscopy. Well after reading a few posts here on the forum, I see that most doctors want you to eat gluten for 3 months and THEN get tested. So now I'm wondering if the endscopy I had this past monday was a...
  2. Hello everyone, I had my endoscopy done this past monday, and of course won't have results for a while. But I do have a couple questions you all might be able to answer in the meantime. First, can the doctor see any evidence with the endscopic exam that would indicate celiac, or is it strictly seen only thru the biopsy? Second, the endoscopy showed an...
  3. The results were: HLA-DQB1 Molecular analysis, allele 1 0501 HLA-DQB1 Molecular analysis, allele 2 0502 And the exact wording from the results: Interpretation Of HLA-DQ Testing: Although you do not possess the main HLA-DQB1 genes predisposing to celiac sprue (HLA-DQB1*0201 or HLA-DQB1*0302), HLA gene analysis reveals that you have two copies of a...
  4. I got real sick last August, I was having D up to 12 times per day. After all the testing my results "suggested" I "might" have microscopic colitis. Celiac blood tests were negative. I went on and tested thru enterolab and my results said that I DO NOT possess the main HLA-DQB1 celiac gene, however I do possess two copies of a gene that predisposes me...
  5. My doctor insists that I do the biopsy, he told me that bloodwork is not accurate enough to properly diagnose celiac.
  6. Just curious, how many of you had negative bloodwork for celiac done, but then went on to test postive with the biopsy?
  7. I had testing done thru enterolab, the gene testing revealed I have double gluten intolerance genes, but do not possess the celiac gene. Does that mean that their is no way possible to have celiac? I informed my doctor of the testing, but he still wants to go ahead with the endoscopy.
  8. I should probably add that I was still eating gluten when the blood tests were done.
  9. Hello everyone, I have quite a few questions as I'm trying to put this puzzle together. Here goes...one fine day last August I became very sick all of sudden. I was having D up to 12 times a day, I went to a GI doctor and they did all the usual testing including a colonoscopy with biopsy. The doctor said "it could be microscopic colitis" based on the biopsy...
  10. Hello everyone, I'm brand new to the board, I just now signed up. My name is Lori, I am married with 3 grown kids. I was diagnosed this past August with Microscopic Colitis, it can mimic Celiacs so they did test me for that as well. Fortunately I don't have celiac, but I still had to give up gluten as part of the treatment. I'm just curious if anyone...
