I am new to all of this, what is this Celiac test or is there one? I thought I had every test known to mankind? Do you mean I've left one out? I thought Celiac disease was just a definition of IBS!

whose symptoms mimic IBS. BE careful though, it's possible to get a flase negative on this. Have your Doc be sure with the testing. try celiac.com for more information.

...false negative.  When the test comes up negative for celiac, but you actually do have it. From what I understand, the test is a little tricky, but the website she recommended should explain how the doctor should do the test for accurate results.
