I'm not sure if your allergist is testing you for a wheat allergy or for celiac disease - apparently they're not the same thing - but if he's thinking celiac maybe this article will be useful: web page

If you do have either a wheat allergy or celiac it would be good to know - in fact, with celiac it's essential you know - so I think you really need to do the diagnostic tests. If your allergist is thinking celiac, maybe you could talk to your GI guy about checking your villi - it sounds like that's a pretty clear-cut diagnostic test.

One thing I've discovered about any serious or chronic illness is that figuring out what's wrong and getting it taken care of always seems to take longer than we think it will. Just remember that every step you take is one step closer to figuring out what's wrong and how to deal with it.

HTH. Take care.
