Did you have any GI symptoms at all of Celiac? I am surprised you had no lab tests in the past to rule this out? I hope now you have good MD's to support you with both diagnoses.

That was the problem, I had no GI symptoms at all. It's called silent celiacs and apparently quite common. I was shocked to get this diagnosis, as I ate pasta and bread practically every day. My symptoms were unexplained weight loss, severe osteoporosis, multiple fractures and then neuropathy in both feet. I finally found a doctor who was able to connect all the dots, thank God!
