My son was diagnosed at 7 months old that was 1983 and i have developed it and was diagnosed 2017 i am glad i had the education bring up my son on a gluten free diet so i knew what to do for my self you have to get in to the habit of reading labels and cooking as much as you can so you know its gluten free.
I wish doctors tested people for CD early in life. In the US, they seldom test for it, as if they don't know anything about it. It's really a disgrace.
I am Coeliac with Dermatitis Herpetiformis. I was diagnosed from a biopsy from a DH lesion. It took many years to reach that point. The link between CD and DH was only discovered many years later. Over the first two years on a gluten free diet my weight when from 50 kgs to 85 kgs. Then my Dr said I had to lose weight. Seriously? I am now 72kg and 76 years and keep very well.
Here in Australia it is possible to have a gene test for Coeliac disease (not covered by Medicare rebate however) if people have been eating GF for a while and are unwilling to do a 6 week gluten challenge before blood test or Endoscopy.
I am 56 and literally just been diagnosed, after years of suffering, hopefully i have suffering so no one else has to go through what i have went through, my dr has the endoscopy results and his secretary told me no further treatment needed, i have a lot of health issues and thankfully the hospital gave me my diagnosis in black and white , i had to do a little research for the big medical words and now i have ve done that , i can stop being paranoid and second guessing myself and take my dr through the proper procedure for treating me how they have, thank you Universe for all . Keep lifted .
I have all the symptoms of ceoliac, especially chronic abdominal pain brain fog lethargy due to malnutrition when foods go through without any nutient absorption, so when my Gp advised going back to gluten for six weeks, i was horrified!! Then i asked what would happen if the test is positive ? He replied, then go on a gluten-free diet!!!! Havent done the test just went straight onto gluten-free diet, without six weeks of agony and malnutition 😊
The only difference between you and me is the monetary and physical cost of my official diagnosis. We are both at the same point now. I applaud you for looking at it logically and taking the necessary steps to effectively treat it asap.
I don’t get bloated or diarrhea. However, I have extreme chronic fatigue and brain fog. I live in the poverty range and use the food bank. Therefore there’s no way I can eat gluten-free. $10 for a loaf of bread and the slices are the size of the palm of my hand, plus every condiment under the sun is full of wheat. How are you supposed to eat gluten free when you have less than $100 a month for groceries?
Hi! Eat rice, potatoes and vegetables and moong dal for protein. Add a drizzle of olive oil. Avoid anything ultra processed. I eat so many carrots and potatoes because of this problem. I sprinkle sea salt and olive oil for flavour.
It is one of few conditions in which the patient can actually test (with the strict GF diet) and effectively treat themselves. When the medical profession finally uses the diet as a test is when more people will be diagnosed in a timely manner. This is what happens when a country with national health care assumes everyone has insurance. What would you suggest to someone who cannot afford the test. Suffer the symptoms until you can get "officially diagnosed"? I think not.
Yes, it is related! Celiac disease can cause neuropathy, and also damage a part of the brain … the cerebellum. When this happens your gait will change and you’ll have a problem walking. It can also cause arthritis. Most people and even some doctors think it targets just the digestive system.

@@noglu106 not entirely, CD requires you to pay much stricter attention to cross-contamination as well as not eating gluten copntaining food. This could be things like cutting gluten-free bread on a cutting board that has also been used for bread with gluten, or frying gluten-free food in a fryer that has also been used to fry food with gluten. All these things can make you feel very poorly as well for most people depending on the severity of the celiac. Although, even if you don't feel noticebily poorly, it still causes internal damage of the villi and cause malabsorbsion of nutrients.
@@wrenfan the point i was trying to make is, CD causes long term irreversible effects, a gluten intolerance causes short term effects that could be severe, but they are reversible and wont damage the body in the long term
@@rayatateo8094 No way, I was diagnosed with CD in 2005 with damaged villi and after going strict GF healed up completely and had absolutely no permanent damage at all. Too much emphasis on diagnosing and too little on the treatment.
My celiac was negative for bloods but the IGA is low apparently which this does not help how much gluten is actually still in - Ive had it for 5 years now id say and on gluten free diet......I am use to it but they did not get it until after two biopsies I lost more and more weight and continued with issues for my gut and after being wrongly diagnosed with "IBS' and then possible crohns and then go to celiac now my IGA is at 0.68 though so ye low and my vit d is at 20 (Very low)
I know this is a year old, but can the testing be done without me having to eat gluten? When I eat gluten I throw up and my abdomen becomes swollen and severely bloated and I also end up with a 7 to 10 day bowel issue where is feels like I have a bowling ball in my intestines trying to push it's way out and that also comes with a lot of bleeding.
Shoutout to my fellow undiagnosed sufferers in the comments who have doctors refusing to do the biopsy because "you can just avoid eating gluten" or some other BS. "Why do you want to know if you have Celiac?" "Either you have it or a gluten intolerance, and the treatment is the same: just don't eat it." "The blood test was negative so I see no reason to pursue a biopsy."...."It doesn't matter if you haven't had it in years-" Excuse me while I flip tables. 🙃
Those doctors who suggest just avoiding it make the most sense of all. You have symptoms that could be undiagnosed Celiac and trying the diet first to see if anything changes is logical.
I apologize in advance. This response went off the rails and I was seemingly feeling some kind of way, which wasn't my original intent. It's also not directed at you. I'm salty at the doctors who ran me in circles for 15 years while I declined to the point of disability. TL;DR medical terminology present in a patients record (or lack there of) impacts not only the outcome of care for the patient, but also how much is billed to them. Avoiding the trigger for symptom management is logical. That's not my problem - I haven't purposely had gluten in well over a decade. The issue is, I want to have the diagnosis in my chart due to the co-morbidities that come with having an autoimmune condition such as Celiac. The terminology on a patients chart upon initial exam is every doctors first impression. If it says "Celiac" there instead of "gluten intolerance" when a doctor is considering symptoms of x, y, or z, it can be a game changer. Unfortunately we live in a world of mind games and gaslighting with healthcare professionals. There are few things as upsetting as being sick for so long, and yet, the doctor tells you there's nothing wrong. The major red flags on your lab tests weren't set off. Yet. Additionally, in the US it's expensive to be sick. The management of a chronic illness is billed to insurance in a different way than other visits - it varies by plan, but most in the US cover chronic conditions by law. That's assuming one HAS insurance. It's also very strange to me how reluctant doctors are to just..do the testing. There was no reluctance to throw me at a Rheumatologist, ENT, Radiologist, or even a Neurologist for various things. I've lost count of all the in office procedures performed on me, plus a surgery, and yet...no the celiac test is too much. AHH so sorry for my ranting
I have a endoscopy on Wednesday but I stopped eating gluten for months now they told me to it was causing to much pain is it even worth getting the test at this point if it will make the test inaccurate
I've been suffering for months with something like this. I'm too terrified of needles and suffer with social anxiety. 😞 Feels like I'm stuck in a vicious loop.
@@noglu106 I have all the symptoms but I just can't bring myself to see a GP. For me the whole experience is terrifying. I avoid dairy and gluten products which costs a small fortune.

I've put off contacting a GP because off my phobia and anxiety but now it looks like I have no choice.
My GP said he won't test for total IgA, he's only ordered the TTG test for me. Shouldn't be do them both at same time? I'm not sure why he's reluctant to order the total IgA as well. I'm not sure he understands the testing. In the NHS what would it say on blood form? Would it say Total IgA or Total immunoglobulins? If my GP doesn't help me get an accurate test I was thinking of trying a home test kit or going private but not sure if the home test kits are good
The good thing is you still have the upper hand by cutting gluten out. I tested but if I couldn't I would still listen to my body and cut out gluten. I tested for gliadin antibodies because I believe I have gluten induced ataxia. How are you doing?
I live in Hungary and my little brother was diagnosed with celiacs 4 years ago. He was only 4 years old so after the blood test the doctors said they don’t need a biopsy to confirm the diagnosis. His IgA level is way less now but it is still not low enough. Is it possible he was misdiagnosed? And if yes what could it be? He never eats gluten, not even the tiniest amount.
@@wrenfanthe only reason the doctor sent him for a test was that he did not eat any form of meat and they didn't have any other ideas. But none of the typical symptoms like bloating, stomach pain. After two years he started eating some meat, still not the favourite

It is important to remain on a normal, gluten-containing diet prior to testing for celiac disease. Do not change to the gluten-free diet before being tested for celiac disease.
I was diagnosed with celiac from my biopsy, but my blood test are all negative. I don’t feel any better even after eating gluten free for months and I don’t feel any worse after being gluten-free for months and re-introducing gluten. Is it possible I have something that looks like celiac, but isn’t
You either have IgA deficiency and they didn't do an total serum IgA level test, which in Europe is extremely unlikely and then a following IgG test. But if all were negative but you do have small intestinal atrophy than your probably looking at something of other gastrointestinal issue. You have to be 3 months of strict non gluten diet (and I mean strict) before it starts working if that is not the case that's why otherwise go back to your GP you were probably misdiagnosed
@@bigtimeLL thanks for the reply. Have you been diagnosed with the disease? For what i know, even little amount of gluten can damage the body of a celiac person. Greetings

How do doctors distinguish IBS/SIBO apart from coeliac diseases practically?
