My question is about the article Kandee wrote in the latest newsletter about gluten intolerance/celiac. Kandee, in it you say not to stop after the EDG for flattened villi and to ask for blood tests for celiac. I have had both the blood tests and the EDG - my blood tests came back positive for gliadin antibodies but since my EDG didn't show anything, my GI doc told me there was nothing wrong with me. (I have actually been to two GI docs who told me my positive blood test "didn't mean anything"!!) You say celiac is an autoimmune disease, and my rheumatologist has diagnosed me with Undifferentiated Connective Tissue Disease, because I don't fit neatly into any of the autoimmune disease categories (blood tests come back normal sometimes, off sometimes). When I was in last week, he did make mention of the celiac blood test that was positive, but when I told him what the GI doc said, he moved on. I guess I am just wondering what your take on this is 
Do you think I should try going to yet another GI doc? I have been following Heather's IBS diet guidelines since 2001 and have not had any great improvement, although her tips have helped. But it seems like my stomach hurts no matter what I eat
