The proof is in the eating (or in this case,
not eating

). Whether you
are or
aren't celiac (or anything else for that matter), if avoiding/eliminating something from your diet improves how you feel, isn't that what really matters?
I test negative for every diabetes test they throw at me, but avoiding/eliminating sugar improves my symptoms. It took me a while to figure that out because all the tests
were negative. There are other foods I've learned to avoid because of the way I feel afterward as well, whether PN related or not. It really doesn't matter to me
what any
tests say (I was always good at passing tests anyway

), as long as eliminating those things doesn't negatively impact my health.
Try going gluten free for a few months. If you don't notice any improvement, no harm done. If you feel better, then COOL!
