A member asked:
If i am already on a gluten-free diet, is it possible to be tested for gluten sensitivity?

Yes: Even if a person is on a gluten-free diet, he should still have celiac disease antibodies in his blood if he has gluten allergy. The blood test can still be done.

Might not show: Depending on the test that is being run, it might not show. Some tests require there to be gluten in the diet in order to tell that the body can't probably handle the gluten protein.
