I agree with Pabb...testing for gluten isn't conclusive, as a rule. They really have not created a test for gluten intolerance as of yet. They can test for celiac disease, but not gluten intolerance. Go gluten free for a few months and see if you feel better. Totally gluten free, not just gluten light. Ataxia often times can be caused by gluten intolerance..I have ataxia because of gluten. If I get glutened, even mildly, my balance issues return with a vengenence.
