More accurate diagnosis is apparently part of the thing with coeliac disease as well, according to my gastroenterologist. In the 18th century, coeliac disease was something you only noticed in people who there was really obviously something wrong with - they hadn't grown up properly due to not having been able to absorb half their nutrition. Now we have incredibly sophisticated medical science, they can detect mild forms of the same condition in people like me who'd never even noticed any unambiguous symptoms.
Losing high-fat dairy sounds like an absolute bummer. I can cope with the loss of bread and pasta, because I never used to eat that much of either in any case and also there are GF versions available; but I get near-religious about cheese above practically all other foods, and if I had to stop eating that I'd be really upset. (Fortunately for me, coeliacs are at risk of calcium deficiency, so in fact the dietitian told me it's more important than ever that I continue to pig out on cheese. :-) So, er, yeah. Sympathy in return :-/
