Hello, I went to see a new GI doctor today. He looked over my results from the previous tests and did not seem alarmed by the two midly positive dgp igg results. He is going to run his own labs but said that he also does the genetic testing. His theory is if you dont have the genes, you don't have celiac. Thus no need for a biopsy. I don't think I've...

At her check up 2 weeks ago I asked my daughter's dr to do the lab for Celiac. I explained my results and that I am still waiting for my apt to get the endoscopy done but would like to get testing started for the kids just in case.

I have been seeing the doctor for some of the issues and realized that I had a lab order for a Celiac Panel but never had...
