    I questioned the doctor several times about my diet and how I don't eat that much gluten. She felt like what I described was enough. I have a GI in mind if this doesn't give me the answers I need. I will check out the page you mentioned, thanks so much!

    I've lurked on this board for a long time, figured I should say hello. I was tested for celiac and other things 7 or so years ago (just the blood test) and it was negative back then. This board is where I found out about Bile Acid Malapsorption so I got the meds for that and went on from there. Then, in 2016, I just started feeling terrible, joint pain...

    Thanks so much for your help everyone! I'm dreading giving up dairy more than gluten, to be honest. I did some research last night and found some information on something entirely different that might be going on with me - bile salts D - and some people say that calcium supplements help tremendously with that. So, that's something easy I can try, and there...

    I've been two weeks gluten free (aside from a couple of 'learning mistakes' along the way). Even though my (limited) tests for celiac came back negative, I was really hoping to find a way to help my bowel problems, mainly frequent D, I decided to give this a try, thinking it may be gluten sensitivity. The first 5 days or so I found what I thought was...

    These are all the test that were run. I'm not going to push the issue, at least for now. Four days ago I started doing my best with my limited experience to avoid gluten. Since then I've had only one short bout of cramps daily, and normal BM's the last two days! I'm amazed, but I realize it's way to early to know for sure if it is gluten or something...

    I'm looking at the results and I don't see all the recommended tests. There is a whole list of things but what I think pertains to celiac are as follows: I'm typing exactly what my paper says. IgA (latest ref rng 68-378) 188 Tissue Transglut Ab (latest ref rng 0-19) 13 I started feeling bad again yesterday...

    Thanks. I notice it when I'm trying to focus on something and when I move to focus on something else, my eyes seem to dart, less fluidly than I remember, kind of like I've had too much caffeine or something. So, I don't think it's a seizure, but I'll keep that in mind.

    Thanks so much for responding. My results will be in sometime this week. My doctor didn't mention anything about the biopsy, she just said if my test is positive for celiac, I can choose to consult with a nutritionist. so I was confused as to whether or not to get it. Thank you for clearing that up. In that case, if my blood test is negative, I will...

    BTT I guess I should clarify my question somewhat, if the blood test is positive for celiac disease, how necessary is the biopsy?

    After several years of progressing symptoms, I decided to see my doctor. She ordered tests for Chron's disease and celiac disease,among other things, and the results should be in next week. So, my question is, if my blood test is positive, will I need to also have the biopsy done? And another one, I'm sure this has been answered elsewhere, sorry for...
