Thanks for all your knowledge and sharing of experiences. It has been most
helpful. However I have a question. 13 months ago after being ill I was told
that I was a "borderline" celiac. No mention of a biopsy but after research, I
went GF. One year later, I was retested. All tests came back negative. My
doctor called the lab and spoke to "the boss" and was told that you do not
have to be gluten-challenged that you either do or do not have the antibodies,
they don't go away. So the test should be the same no matter when it is taken.
Now I know from having Hashimoto's that the antibodies are always there.
Can anyone answer this? It's quite hard to be told you have this and then it's
just gone (even though I know it's for life). Thanks for any help!
Joyce, PA
