I realize there is a problem of underdiagnosis, however there have been double blind-test studies where people who claim they get better on gluten-free diets without a diagnose did feel better if they thought they were eating gluten-free while in fact eating gluten. That being said, I was only diagnosed myself because of hereditary markers later confirmed by examination, rather than any obvious surface-level symptoms.
