Is this to check your antibodies have normalised?

It generally can take several months to a year for your antibodies to fall within normal ranges. It's better to presume you will fail and get a shirty letter from your gastroenterologist telling you you're being non-compliant. Ask for the numbers so you can check that your antibody levels are going down, but don't be disappointed of you are still positive - it takes time for your body to heal.
