Remember, celiac is NOT the same as gluten intolerance       04/02/05 10:39 AM Edit Reply Quote Linz Reged: 09/01/03 Posts: 8242 Loc: England Celiac is an IBD where gluten triggers inflammation, gluten intolerance can be just a food intolerance. The best way to check for gluten intolerance when you've all the tests for celiac (and the microscopic thingy Mike mentioned) is to do an exclusion diet. Cut it out COMPLETELY (that is very important) for at least a month, monitor your symptoms and then eat it again and monitor your symptoms. If you ARE gluten intolerant, cutting it out will make you feel better (even if it's just persistent bloating or headaches that goes away, not all your symptoms) and if you're not it won't help your symptoms. Remember that you have to keep everything else that affects your IBS the same as much as possible to not complicate the results. An exclusion diet is pretty foolproof and any alternative doctor worth his fees will always do one as well as a skin/blood test for intolerances as the tests aren't always reliable. Do NOT eat GF if you don't need to. If you DO need to, then that's cool and it's definitely possible but it does make your life harder and more expensive, as well as cutting out alot of foods that are very helpful in controlling IBS.
