Way back in May 2004 I started having trouble with my stomach. I had some 
tests done by my regular physician and nothing came up.  My chiropractor 
mentioned that I may have a gluten intolerance.  I got some info. and tried 
not to eat gluten and felt better. I had a Food Antibody Assessment IgE and 
IgG done at Great Smokies Dianostic lav and nothing showed up for wheat, rye 
or gluten.  My chiropracter called them and they admitted that the gluten 
sensitivity test was being updated. So I continued to not eat gluten as much 
as possible.
In Oct. of 2005 while being diagnosed with Chronic Fatigue and Lyme disease, 
another doctor had me have a Gluten Sensitivity Test done by Enterolab 
(stool test).
My fecal Antigliadin IgA was above normal by 5 units.
Fecal Antitissue Transglutaminase IgA was normal as well as Microscopic 
fecal Fat Score.
HLA-DQ Gene Moleculasr analysis was HLA-DQB1*0201,0301. The report said that 
I have a dietary gluten sensitivity and that I have a genotype containing 
the main gene that predisposes to gluten sensitivity and celiac sprue.
On to Sept. 2006.  I went to my allergist and he did some testing for food 
allergies as well. They did a MCS IgE Specific/total and got no reaction to 
gluten, slight for soybeans and moderate for cows milk.
Can anyone explain what is going on?  I have been putting off a biopsy 
because I have a strong feeling that it will be negative and I don't want to 
go through it.

I would appreciate any feedback?

Thanks,
Jeri
