<<Disclaimer: Verify this information before applying it to your situation.>> My doctors still do not believe that I have CD. I am overweight, have a long history of serious malnutrition despite a healthy diet, and IGA deficiency, but because of severe symptoms and adrenal insufficiency, I have opted not to do the challenge necessary to get a biopsy. When I eat gluten, the coating strips off of my tongue within an hour, leaving little sores, but it is not an allergy. One of the upper GI problems that have been unexplained to me by the gastrointerologists is this rapid intestinal transit problem when I have an upper GI test. The barium drink flows through so quickly, they cannot get a picture. The gastrointerologists have no explanation and offer no advice as to why this is happening. I would imagine that it is a sign of some celiacs, that the villi are so flat that it does not stop the food long enough to absorb it. Does any one out there, especially a doctor, have any clue as to the cause and medical result that rapid transit can cause in digestion? I know not all celiacs have this disorder, but is it a result of CD and unhealed villi, or is there another explanation? How many others out there have been diagnosed with this problem? Carol in NJ
