Angela,

She wouldn't necessarily have checked for Celiac. Also, you might have tested negative for Celiac then (when was the endoscopy) and you might test positive now. Endoscopies are considered the gold standard test for Celiac...but they're not 100% accurate. This is what's so frustrating for a lot of folks--and this is why many people simply go off gluten after negative test results, find they feel better, and are self-diagnosed.

If you decide to go off gluten and you feel better, you have your answer regardless of the tests.

Good luck, and keep us posted!
