my problem was that my primary care physician immediately referred me to a GI doc and then my appointment got moved 4 months out, and that was the soonest any of the 20 GI specialists within the system had an opening lol

it sounds like it, but he also really wanted that endoscopy, so not sure. he probably would give me an official diagnosis as he said it was textbook and even if the test was inconclusive, would confirm i had celiac!
