Hi Make sure if you are having a test that you have not been eating Gluten free or it will not work. Also often the test is not good enough any way. Worth trying first but some people test negative but still feel they are Coeliac, My endo wrote a very good paper in BMJ in November on this, You should be able to access it on on line. If not send me a Pm ( click on pretend picture)as I can send it to you.

Have a look at this previous blog from a lady on here who is coeliac, she has been taking advise from a professor at one of the top London hosp's and is doing great on his advise. She has also linked you to her 3 previous blogs so its a lot of reading but well worth it with some great comments from others.
