Hello Everyone!
Thank you so much for your many supportive replies to my question
regarding a biopsy being the gold standard test for CD. I apologize for
taking so long to summarize.
Some important points brought to my attention:
- majority believed that there are definitely different levels of
intolerance to gluten as well as levels of CD severity.
- keep in mind that tests for CD as well as the Dr.s performing are
subject to error in reading and taking the test(s).
- for more info try a web site that addresses celiac testing:

Thank you again to everyone who responded - it really warmed my heart!
By the way, is anyone on the listserv from Winchester or Charlottesville
and interested in getting in touch?
