Yes it's odd. My coeliac's test came back negative but then I've been wheat free and, by default, almost gluten free, since October. I cut it out because it was suggested that wheat was triggering my migraines. (used to have one every 3 weeks, and have now only had one "mild" one since Oct!)

After I had the test I read up on it and realised that it would come back negative 'cause you have to be eating lots of wheat/gluten for the test to be valid. I don't think my doctor realised that.

I'm sure I'm not actually as I know I can have a little bite of bread or cake and get away with it and it's only if I "overload" that I get D or migraines. My friend does have it and gets an instant reactions if she has just the very tiniest bit.
