Did they run the blood tests?
endoscopies and biopsies can easily miss gut damage, too. The blood tests are calibrated to only show positive at a very high level, supposeddly to correlate with gut damage.
Some patients have had the video capsule endoscopy, and they found villi damage at the wrong end of the small intestine, not at the upper end....
But the celiac antibodies are ttg-2,
DH antibodies are ttg-3,
gluten ataxxxia antibodies are ttg-6.
If they only look for celiac, they are only gonna find celiac(not-celiac).
