I am certainly no expert on this but I thought the typical thing would be to do the blood test first and if it turns out negative then the risk isn't big that you have any gluten problems. I thought the only way to know for sure was looking at the bowel villi in the small intestine. I have only had the blood tests done for gluten intolerance myself and they came back negative for me. But it still seems the docs thought that was enough to rule out any gluten problems.

I still think you have nothing to lose from trying a gluten free diet. Anyway, I thought celiac and gluten intolerance were not the exact same thing, I thought celiac was a more serious type of gluten intolerance, but like I said I am no expert.
