What is this test?

Detect gluten sensitivity and coeliac disease with this simple blood test. Coeliac disease is an autoimmune disorder triggered by the ingestion of gluten. The blood test is commonly used to screen individuals suspected of having coeliac disease or who may be at risk due to symptoms or family history.

Understand your Symptoms

Coeliac disease symptoms vary from mild to severe and can fluctuate over time. Mild cases may not have noticeable symptoms, often detected incidentally through other testing. However, the common symptoms include:

  • Indigestion
  • Abdominal pain
  • Bloating
  • Constipation
  • Flatulence
  • Vomiting

It can also cause other symptoms, such as unexplained weight loss, fatigue, and itchy skin, rash. Coeliac can cause malabsorption and malnutrition. Common deficiencies include iron, vitamin B12, and folate.

It's important to discuss your symptoms, medical history, and any concerns with a healthcare professional who can determine if a coeliac blood test is appropriate for you. The blood test is the initial step in diagnosing coeliac disease, but a confirmed diagnosis typically requires further evaluation, such as an intestinal biopsy.
