To get a proper diagnosis it has to be a gastroscopy and you need to eat gluten to get a proper result. It is up to you but i would think about it and get some more advice as if it is ceoliac you would need to have check ups. I hope you get the help you need.

Hi mortis I am the same had symptoms for many years but gps did nothing I have finally been to see the hospital consultant and am now back on gluten waiting for my gastroscopy in a few weeks do not give up it is worth it in the end. Going back onto gluten has been horrific but at the end I will get a proper diagnosis and help.

Thank you I have just contacted my GP so am waiting a response ,thanks for the tip.

Hi all I am waiting diagnosis but have a nasty sinus infection I have had them since my late teens,I seem to be reacting badly to the amoxicillin bad stomach pains and diarrhoea too,so I will persevere as long as I can with them. But it seems to be a worse reaction than before I was told to go gluten free.

Hi to you both I too am from UK,this site has been fantastic, I am going through diagnosis at the moment hospital appointment in September, but I am either Coeliac or gluten sensitive,I am finding it hard at the moment and feeling quite ill most of the time. Plus my work are not very understanding as I do have unpleasant symptoms which stop me from working...

Hi I agree Morrison's are great, I contacted them to ask them to consider gluten free bbq food they got back to me the same day and are definitely going to look into the possibility of their own brand . It is great to be listened to.

I can relate to all of this so much I am awaiting diagnosis,but due to lon g wait for a first appointment at the hospital I have gone gluten free by gp advice and will then have to go back to gluten after my appointment whilst I wait for a gastroscopy appointment. I have been mis diagnosed originally, but found gluten free diet has started to make a big difference...

Hi thanks for the advice I will definitely get some vitamins and probiotics. Not sure about the broth yet.thanks again for your advice,I just checked again this week and no appointments available as yet so going to be a lo g process.

Hi thank you so much for your support,it is good to find somewhere you can be totally honest about symptoms and feelings where it's not an unwanted subject. I wish I could speed up appointment ,but I do understand why not so doing the best I can with how I am at the moment,and will deal with gluten diet when it happens and just hope if I am very bad again...

Hi thank you for this , but as there are no appointments available for the clinic to see the gastroenterologist my gp has decided that it is best if I stay off of gluten until I have a date for the clinic, which could be quite a wait once I have the date I will start gluten again as my gp has advised I did question this as I have read up about intelorence...

I have only been gluten free for a short while and am still learning I am just having my first glutened experience after my husband cooked dinner ,and did not realise he had added a stock which had gluten in it ,and I assumed he had used the gluten-free free stock . I started with bloating and cramps which led to the dreaded D,I also had nausea a vomiting...

Hi you are not alone I am still waiting my full diagnosis but am gluten free for a month now it is very hard, and I am still struggling with it all, especially when you have family who eat a ' normal ' diet. I crave bread and some meals terribly some days,and feel very down ,but keep going I have been assured by a Coeliac friend that this is normal and it...

Hi all I am so happy to have found this site,I am waiting for a full diagnosis ,I have had problems for a lot of years but never once did I think I could be gluten intolerant or ceoliac. I was told many years ago by a GP that I had IBS ( no testing done) and would just have to deal with the symptoms.So I went away and did just that, not always very well...
