I have always read that it is genetic...       09/17/04 11:27 AM Edit Reply Quote Heather Reged: 12/09/02 Posts: 7799 Loc: Seattle, WA but it is also very, very commonly undiagnosed for decades, so you might well have family members who have it but don't know it. I'm also not sure how many generations can carry the gene recessively, so you may have had family members with celiac a ways back and it's just now showing up for you. If you suspect you do have celiac, I'd definitely go ahead and get tested. - Heather -------------------- Heather is the Administrator of the IBS Message Boards.
