Did I Get The Right Tests Done?

Hello I have just joined the forum and have been reading for hours and learning soooo much. I just want to check that I had the proper tests before I get to far along on a gluten-free diet.

 

Antinuclear Ab (ANA)  1:80 range <1:40

 

ANA ifa pattern Homogeneous

 

Gliadin Deamidated AB IgG          37.1H    range <=20 neg, 20.0-30 weak positive, >30 positive

 

Gliadin Deamidated AB IgA          56.7H    range <=20 neg, 20.0-30 weak positive, >30 positive

 

Transglutaminase AB IgA, EIA     >100.0H   range <=20 neg, 20.0-30 weak positive, >30 positive

 

Endomysial IGA Antibody             Positive    range negative

 

ENDO TITER                                 1:10*       no range is given

 

I was not a big gluten consumer prior to testing although the las few years after doing the SCD diet for 2 years I would consume gluten occasionally ( I maintained a low carb diet) with a more frequent consumption 4 - 6 months prior to these tests after deciding. I do have Hashimoto's thyroiditis. 

 

Thanks Diane

You had the best tests done, and they are all positive - you don't see that often. Welcome to the club. ;)

I agree, you are very positive, especially since you were not consuming much gluten leading up to the tests.  I would be extra vigilant to make sure you are not consuming hidden gluten in other foods though too.

      Mine is definitely triggered by inflammation and stress! I do also have arthritis in my spine, but the pain is more in my pelvic area. Im sure i have other food intolerances or other autoimmune isues but the more I focus on it and see doctor after doctor, it just gets worse.  Best thing is get of Gluten! (I also avoid lactose). Try to limit stress and anything that causes inflammation in your body.

      Good morning,   I got an email about replies to this post. Some of my doctors had blamed a slipped disc for the pain I had and that contributes, but after meeting with a gastroenterologist AGAIN and trying some lifestyle modifications, I found out I have IBS and can't tolerate corn or excessive fructose to any degree. Cutting out corn AFTER having cut out all gluten containing products was a real pain but I feel much better now!

      So, I contacted Scott Adams, the author of that article and also the creator/admin of this website, and pointed out to him the need to clarify the information in the paragraph in question. He has now updated the paragraph and it is clear that the DGP-IGA does serve the purpose of circumventing the false negatives that IGA deficiencies can generate in the tTG-IGA antibody test.

      Has anyone experimenced enlarged lymph nodes with celiac? Both in the neck and groin area. Imaging of both areas have said that lymph nodes are reactive in nature. However, they have been present for months and just wondering how long this may take to go down. Been gluten-free for about two months. Blood counts are normal.
