How to Buy a Home Celiac Test

Celiac disease, with its accompanying bloating, nausea, abdominal pain and other issues, can be difficult to live with. If you are experiencing these symptoms and want to determine if you have the disease but don't want to spend money on a potentially-expensive laboratory test, you can test yourself. You'll have to spend money, but it won't cost as much as a lab test. You will need to draw a small amount of blood from your finger for the home test, so be prepared for a slightly uncomfortable prick.
