I'll add to this that it is often (not always) possible to detect the presence of Coeliac Disease through a blood test. That should be the first step before going the colonoscopy route.
On the other hand, if a diet helps, and provocations after, say, a month (but without your knowledge) make things go downhill fast, you can be sure enough. Welcome to the wonderful life where you get to check yoghurt for trace amounts of wheat products, and pizza is a holy grail (one of my closest friends is coeliac, for people in Amsterdam area, Woodstone in Haarlem makes good gluten-free pizza).
