I was recently diagnosed with CD from a biopsy obtained during an endoscopic procedure. My mother has more of the symptoms than I did and she is now under the care of a gastroenterologist who has her scheduled for a colonoscopy. He claims he will be able to obtain a biopsy to test for celiac by this procedure. I have found an old message from Dr. Joseph Murray that says it is not possible to get a proper biopsy using the colonoscope. Has this changed, or is the endoscope still the only method?
