Mandy Moore, the "This is Us" actress, took to Instagram on Saturday to reveal that she visited a doctor for her Upper Endoscopy, to find out her real condition with celiac disease. She documented her doctor's visit through a video of herself in the hospital. On the caption, she wrote, "Just had an upper endoscopy to officially see whether or not I have celiac. On my way to the diagnosis."
According to a report from Entertainment Tonight, the actress recent upper endoscopy was not the first time for her. The 33-year old star reportedly had her stitches last month after having a run-in to her shower door handle.
Perhaps, this will be the second time for Moore to undergo a physical recovery.
Autoimmune disorder
In a report obtained by People, celiac disease is a kind of autoimmune disorder which largely affects a person's ability to digest foods rich in gluten. It was also added that when a person with celiac happens to eat gluten; the body will trigger its own immune response which would cause internal damage.
Celiac is a kind of disease which doctors found no cure to it. Accordingly, a person with such disease should strictly follow a gluten-free diet as it is the only treatment for the kind of disorder. Back in July, Moore first revealed on Instagram that she had been diagnosed with such disorder. Since then, she had been asking her fans about some tips that would help a person with a celiac problem.
