[QUOTE="DCUKMod, post: 2048752, member: 345386"] [USER=506014]@SlothySarah[/USER] - The test for coeliac isn't done very often and is often instructed by a consultant, so I'm a little curious why they might have done that. Had you gon e to your Doc with digestive issues? I've been tested for coeliac too, but at the time I had already been on a low carb diet for a few years, so my only gluten would have been the through additives in sauces, or the like. I didn't carb-up for the test, but I had discussed it with the Endo before the test was done, and he was more concerned I was tested in my usual state than that I eat abnormally (for me), just to comply with test conditions. I "passed" the test, but he recommended strict GF anyway. It's important you have your investigations, but I wouldn't defer taking steps to improve your diagnosed conditions in the meantime. If you do need to have further investigations for coeliac, then plans can be agreed with your HCPs to ensure you get tothe bottom of things. [/QUOTE]
