Well, if you've been avoiding gluten prior to taking the test, you won't have gluten antibodies in your blood, and you can get a false negative. But if you've been eating gluten regularly for 6-8 weeks before the test, and the test is negative, that should show that you are not gluten intolerant.

Now, whether or not you could still have actual allergy/intolerance problems with wheat, due to components other than gluten, I don't know....
