What could it be?!

I've already had a doctor's appointment and felt fobbed off.

I've convinced myself it could be celiac or liver related. If anyone is celiac or has similar symptoms can you comment please?

My symptoms are:
Unexplained weight gain
Bloated stomach
Tired more than I think I should be
Trapped wind
A rash /itchy areas
Easy bruised specifically on thighs

I’m pcos and have weight gain that I can’t shift no matter what I do or if I do calorie deficit etc
Bloated stomach, absolutely knackered.

I do wanna also say I’m b12 deficient and will be on tablets forever now.

I’ve just switched my gp and she’s told me finally after 10 years what pcos drivers I have so I know what to work on, told me the correct dosage for my b12 medication for it to work and because of acid reflux, my b12, inability to lose weight and some other personal things with my tummy area she’s arranged a blood test for coeliac.

All of my current issues play hand in hand with each other so I’ve just started some supplements, waiting for bloods and drinking more water and more steps hoping to finally see change after having my daughter 2.5 years ago. X

Symptoms of coeliac are different in everyone. My family have all tested negative on the blood test but positive on biopsy

My sister has coeliac disease and one of the main symptom for her was unexplained weight loss and she also has T1 diabetes but is very controlled and it messed with her levels a lot.

You are legally allowed to request a reassessment but coeliac can only be diagnosed with your bloods containing enough information for them to basically look inside you and look at a specific part that shows you have it (I won’t go into detail as I don’t want to make you squirm!) it took them 2 years to diagnose my sister!
