If a Celiac test shows positive for Celiac, you most likely have it. An autoimmune disease that starts in your small intestine and destroys the lining leaving unable to digest food. It than effects all body parts because you are not getting nourishment. Most doctors are ignorant because they are not trained in the disease. It causes problems with the function of your gastrointestinal system, constipation, diarrhea, bloating, cramps, pancreas, gall bladder, stomach, gerd and a foggy brain. I have arteriosclerosis, had a shunt in thigh, osteoporosis, even after 40 years of weightlifting, peripheral neuropathy and all kinds of digestive problems. Find a Dr who knows it, even if you have to travel. I went to 6 gastroenterologists who only did colonoscopies and said I was all right. I have been suffering to the point of disability for 10 years. Finally another doctor said let’s have a blood test for Celiac. I also have the gene. It is genetic. You have to go to a gluten free diet. There is no meds for it. I am one of 30% who still has the symptoms. It is a painful, and dysfunctional disease. The doctors cannot see it in the colon. The hard constipation has caused a very painful anal fissure and I cannot get an appointment with a colorectal doctor. I am being tortured inside.
