Hi
I am an identical twin, and was diagnosed with Celiac about 2 years ago.
Soon after my diagnosis, my twin sister was tested as well (doctor's
recommendation), and was found not to be a Celiac.

My question is if this is a common thing, since as I understand, identical
twins have a very close genetic makeup. Therefore, how is this possible?

Thanks in advance,
Keren in NY
