Please remember that your GP is only following the guidelines that he/she has been taught. A hundred years of tradition has to be broken to accept that gluten can cause more than just coeliac disease. Changes in the medical field justifiably comes slowly. A high level of evidence is required to change the medical guidelines. So there will always be a tension between new syndromes and old treatments.
The good news is that in my experience, more and more GPs and paediatricians are accepting the Gluten Syndrome concept.
