Mine went to a lab and were back within a week.

My ressults came in negative but when I asked for the numbers, the only number I was given was 254. What number is this and can I go by just this number?

I do have an endo scheduled on the 18th and I plan on talking to the doctor more then, it's a pain getting him on the phone.

Every lab uses a different measuring scale for celiacs, so the number itself doesn't mean anything unless accompanied by the lab's definition of what is normal. You would be best to ask for a hard copy of your blood results from your doctor. You can then take it with you to your endo appointment.

He's doing the endo so I'll just get it then, he should have my file I would think?

Sorry, I misunderstood. I thought another doctor was handling your endo, but if it is the same one he definitely will have your blood work on file.

      Isolated DPG-Iga

      By trents · Posted

      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.

      Lymph nodes

      By Soleihey · Posted

      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.

      Hmm interesting I just assumed that any “IGA” tests including the DPG iga would be negative in a person who is IGA deficient but maybe that is not the case for the DPG test.

      If you were just diagnosed I can say that if you go 100% gluten-free should should see dramatic improvement of your symptoms over the next few months, but the hard part is to stay gluten-free. This article has some detailed information on how to be 100% gluten-free, so it may be helpful (be sure to also read the comments section.):
