    When should I start the gluten-free? I've already had the blood work. Do you still have to be eating gluten IF they do suggest a scope?

    Thanks for your response! I had my doctor appointment this morning. My doctor seemed very apprehensive about testing me for Celiac. He basically said it's a pain in the butt to diagnose. I get that, but I'm sick! and i'm tired of being sick. So I insisted that we do it anyway. He asked me if my family had any problem with Thyroid problems. I never thought...

    So this might seem like a stupid question, but what is the difference between Celiac and Gluten intolerance? What do you do to deal with Gluten intolerance? I'm really anxious to get to the doctors tomorrow. I don't want to put myself on a gluten-free diet if it's not necessary as it seems like a HUGE change.. and it's also expensive, but i'd like to do...
