I am curious about the "medical maintenance" a person with celiac should
have.
Someone wrote recently ...."at a recent GI checkup, the results of the
standard celiac blood tests (antirectculin, antiendomysial, etc.) came back
negative."
Should people with celiac be checking back with their GI on a regular basis
for this bloodtest?
I often get stomach upset (usually the glute toots, my sister and I call
them!) - I think that it is due to xanthum gum or guar gum, but am still
trying to isolate ingredients to determine the cause.... but I would like to
be able to check back with my doctor to get a read on how my body is
**really** doing on the gluten free diet...
My regular doctor when I was in for a physical said that the bloodtest
wouldn't tell me anything and that if I wanted to pursue stomach stuff to
contact my GI....
????
I wouldn't mind hearing what others do on a routine basis...
Thank you.
