Guest guest Posted June 10, 2010 Report Share Posted June 10, 2010 I agree with the dietary trial but if you do this before testing the tests will most likely be negative even if you have celiac. So do the tests first, then try the diet. Sherry > > Many of us in this group have a gluten allergy which sometimes shows up as celiac disease.

At the moment I am on 32.5 mg of HC. Will this skew the result? This test is for celiac disease which is an auto-immune disease (the test therefore looks for anti-bodies) and not for gluten allergy. > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
