Hello, I am new to the forum. I am in the process of getting diagnosed. Tenative diagnosis is celiac. I had symptoms and had an endoscopy and colonoscopy. I had microvilli atrophy (pathcy) with lymphocyte accumilation and evidence of maladsorption. Negative for the antibody test, but had been on a gluten free diet for a month prior per doc's instructions...
