Early Day Motion
Diagnosis Of Coeliac Disease
11th July 2010
Early Day Motion that this House recognises that people with coeliac disease have an autoimmune disease for which the only treatment is a lifelong adherence to a gluten-free diet; acknowledges that one in 100 people have the condition but that only 12 to 15 per cent. of these people are diagnosed; urges the medical profession to improve diagnosis rates to reduce the time from onset of symptoms to diagnosis; and supports Coeliac UK and its campaign to help the half a million undiagnosed get a diagnosis of their condition which will significantly improve their quality of life and save the NHS money.
