Yes, my GI said based on the blood tests he ran, no Celiac (and this was after a gluten challenge that ran from January to April). I don't know if this helps but..

Hi everyone! So I met with my GI yesterday. He said aside from the slight erosion he saw (which now I have to take Prilosec every day for that) and a small nodule (Pancreatic heterotopia which he said is congenital and nothing to worry about) that there is no evidence of Celiac.
