Private blood tests

[leahcim]

Hey all, just curious is there any good at home or private tests? are the little home test kits good enough to use? (link below)

sorry if this has been asked before but i have no luck with GP's so im pretty much on my own

It might mean your GP taking you seriously. I tested positive on one of those nearly a year ago. Family history of CD and mild occasional digestive symptoms for a year or two. I only started to wonder after being unable to give blood due to a low blood iron reading. Kept a record of gluten containing food for a week, then tested myself. Almost immediate improvement after cutting out gluten, and my blood iron back to normal three months later.

I must get round to telling my GP.
