<<Disclaimer: Verify this information before applying it to your situation.>> I am working with a family in which the mother, a son and a daughter have many symptoms of celiac disease. The mother's family tree includes many individuals with digestive problems. The son, who is 11 y old, had the serological tests for CD (done through a local hospital) which came back negative. Although these results at first seem to be good news, the family really wants to have their problems solved and now are once again at a loss. I know there has been discussion about the reliability of the serological tests and I was wondering if anyone has compiled an analysis. Or, is it really possible to have CD without the antibodies? Thank you for any information you can offer. Sincerely, Kathy Harden
