aa with another autoimmune disease

dear deanna16:When my blood levels were all dropping rapidly but no answers why, the docs did all kinds of genetic testing on me; out of the blue my doc tells me I tested grossly abnormal for celiac disease, another autoimmune disease.
I was shocked since I was asymptomatic; no gi problems. I've been wondering if this set me up to also getting AA. Literature states if celiac is untreated for years, can negatively effect other organs, systems, etc. So that's my theory of getting AA, but docs just state very interesting.
