    Thanks Sara!! I thought about adopting the gluten free diet even if my results are negative. I HAVE to do something! My symptoms are getting worse everyday. I have had chroinc D for almost a year now. And we are leaving for vacation in 3 weeks and I am so scared to death of being trapped in a car on the road for 10 + hours. I really appreciate...

    Hello all! As some of you probably already know I have yet to be formally diagnosed. I had a Celiac Panel drawn up 2 weeks ago tomorrow and I am still waiting on the results I am soooooo tired of waiting!! I wanna know if I have celiac disease or not!

    Hi Steven! I am new here and have not be formally diagnosed yet. I had a Celiac Panel drawn up almost 2 weeks ago and I am STILL waiting on the results! So as you have probably figured out I have not adopted the gluten free diet as of yet. I am still having symptoms that I am convinced are from celiac disease so if I get a negative I will be shocked...

    Wow!! Scott City huh? I go through there everytime I go to Cape!! Small world! I am very worried about getting the diagnosis simply for the reason Poplar Bluff only has 1 health food store and I am merely assuming that they carry gluten free foods. I have been paying attention when I grocery shop (at wal-mart) to the amounts of gluten free foods available...

    Hello everyone!! I am new to these boards but was wondering if there was anyone on here from the South East Missouri area? I have not yet formally been diagnosed but I am hoping to hear from my Dr any day now with my Celiac Panel test results! I'd love to hear from anyone in my area or close to my area!! Take care and have a GREAT night!!...

    Hi there! I am new here also but have done A LOT of research on this very topic!! I think that if you get a positive blood test they are something like 90% accurate. But you have to keep eating gluten so it is in your system before you have your blood drawn! I think that it is the negatives that are inaccurate. False negatives are common with Celiac...

    Thanks so much for your replies! I did not mean to insinuate that a colonoscopy would diagnose me with celiac disease, my Dr just told me that if the Celiac panel came back negative then I would be in need of a colooscopy! to find out why I have had D for so long! I am still eating gluten altho I am afraid to. But just incase I have to have the biopsy...

    Good afternoon everyone! I have a question....... I had a Celiac Panel drawn up on the 11th (still waiting for the results) my question is do you have to have a biopsy even after a positive blood test? Or is it at your Dr's discretion? All I know is my Dr told me that if my Celiac Panel came back negative then I would need a colonoscopy ...
