A member asked:

If a mother has celiac should the daughter be tested?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

No: Only if the daughter has symptoms. There is only a slight familial tendency and it is clearly not a single-gene disease. Remember the symptoms can be subtle -- belly pain, "indigestion", even "spastic colon".
