[quote=Anonymous]Only eating gluten for a week may not be long enough for your body to produce the antibodies or for the damage to be evident. Especially if you have been gluten free for awhile. Usually they say you need a minimum of two gluten servings a day for 6-8 weeks for the endoscopy to be accurate. Even that has been challenged as insufficient. Also Celiac isn't just about gluten in wheat - you also react to barley, rye etc... so if you haven't been avoiding those all along then you should be fine. If you have truly been gluten free (and not wheat free) then this endoscopy won't tell you much. Did you test positive on the blood work for Celiac while still eating gluten? [/quote]
