Need a little feedback. I am new to this board and finding information very helpful.

I had an anti-endomysial test done in July 07, negative.
I had a biopsy done anyway, Nov 07, negative.
I had food allergy tests, Jan 08, negative.

I am intolerant of gluten and possibly dairy by way of elimination dieting since the beginning of this year. There has been cheating and experimenting with organic food so I am not completely gluten-free.

Would it be worth having other blood tests at this point? Need I still be on gluten for those?
Or just go gluten-free and consider instead something from the Enterolab or some other place?

Blood test can be inaccurate whether someone is on gluten or off. They are not conclusive.

I would say to go totally free of gluten. No cheating. Concentrate on the gluten and dairy for some time and see how you feel. Several months down the road, add the dairy back and test the waters.

I have no experience with Enterolabs, so I don't recommend. Others here have been quite please with them.

Thanks. That pretty much confirms what I have been thinking.

As far as I know Enterolab can't tell you anything that you won't find out simply by trying to be gluten free. That is, they don't diagnose celiac, they can just tell you that you might feel better gluten free, which is what you would find out by trying the diet anyway. I suppose the gene test might be interesting.
