All right! I'm glad I asked this beforehand. Well, my doctor wants to wait for my blood test results before trying a surgeon I think. I'm not quite sure. He said he wanted to send me to a surgeon but never gave me a referral. I'm not sure I have the willpower to go gluten-free anyway. My family isn't really supportive of this kind of stuff... So unless...

I think I might have celiac's. I've gone about up to five days before without gluten... it helped my gut problems a lot. I just got blood taken for a celiac test, but my doctor says he wants to refer me to a surgeon to check my intestines. Do I need to continue consuming gluten until then?! Can I eliminate gluten from my diet from now? Or do I have...

hey guys, [this part is a rant, move on to the next paragraph for my question] I have a fear of doctors. It's not a phobia, it's more of an extreme dislike for doctors because I've never met any who have helped, really.

I hate the idea of trying this, getting my hopes up and then realizing that it's something else... but so far, most of my symptoms (and my reaction to yogurt today, seem to match a sick celiac's profile quite well. And I definitely do not want to eat wheat again

Hi Ravenwoodglass! I see. No I do not need a diagnosis to stay off of it anymore. I had tried in the past and failed, but I seem to be doing well this time because I have decided to reintroduce fish/meat in my diet and that is really helping. Thank you so much for reading and replying to my post! I really appreciate it.

Hi everyone, I have suspected a gluten allergy for quite some time now, but I have not been to a doctor yet for a diagnosis, and I am not sure whether I could still get diagnosed through blood tests since I have already given up gluten. I will list all of my symptoms and then specify which ones I am not experiencing anymore, though it's only been about...
