Hello,
My husband's family has celiac disease and both he and my daughter have celiac disease. My husband's sister thought that she had celiac disease but after getting tested it ended up that she had an ulcer that mimicked the symptoms...all she had to do was to take care of the ulcer. She doesn't need to eat gluten free.

I would definitely get tested but you have to be eating gluten for a few weeks before the test.

BTW our pediatrician also told me that our daughter didn't have CD. I just stood firm and told him that I wanted to blood test--period. It is a genetic disease.

Best to you,
