    Researchers believe they have finally answered a basic question about the cause of celiac disease -- where in the body does the wheat protein gluten enter one's system? A study published in the July issue of Gastroenterology identifies the CXCR3 receptor in the intestine as a gluten gateway. When people with celiac disease eat gluten, the protein triggers...

    Apparently it is pretty common. "Q: I feel hungry all the time. Is that normal? Yes, it is very common. Your body is making up for the time it wasn't fully absorbing foods. Hunger levels tend to normalize within the first months after eliminating gluten and beginning a well balanced diet of gluten-free foods." From: Open Original Shared Link

    See this article for why the biopsy is NOT as accurate as doctors hope they are. Take this and discuss this with your doctor.

    Stool testing cannot diagnose Celiac Disease. Celiac Disease is currently diagnosed by bloodwork/biopsy. Stool testing can indicate gluten sensitivity. So can a diet challenge like the one you have done, that has provided you with answers on how your daughter responds to the diet (positively!)

    Are you looking to order it yourself or order it through your doctor?

    With positive bloodwork and a positive biopsy - that is the gold standard for a Celiac diagnosis. Try finding a local Celiac support group - they can put you in touch with other local families with Celiac. Hang in there!

    Open Original Shared Link info about testing that you can take with you to your doctor for genetic testing.
  22. happygirl
    You can have genetic testing for Celiac, ordered by your doctor, through an in-network lab for your insurance, so that you don't have to pay out of pocket.

    What blood tests did your doctor run for Celiac?
