A member asked:
If my test for celiac was false negative does it mean i have it but been gluten free for 6 months when i took the test?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Maybe: Testing for celiac disease should always be performed before a patient start gluten free diet. That can be a cause of a false negative test.
