High Gliadin Iga

I need someon's best guess on my son as I wait several weeks for the GI appt.

13.5 years old - grew 3.5 inches this past year and gained 10 lb. (He is 5ft. 7.5 inches and weighs 122, thin but he always has been.)

Gliadin IgA positive 66 (<20 being negative )

Gliadin IgG negative <20

Tissue Transglutaminase negative <20

Endomysial Antibody negative

Seems like (from my quick internet research) the tissue test and the Endomysial test is what they want as positive in order to proceed with a biopsy. Therefore, I am guessing he has no active celiac trouble.

I plan to get him HLA tested, but until then...what is your best guess? Also, why would they check the IgA and IgG if the results don't matter?

Thanks much.

Judee

      Yes, wheat is common in most soy sauces now because it speeds up the fermenting process.

      For 16 years I have relied on the website glutenfreedrugs.com to determine if a pharmaceutical is gluten-free. The website has been down for at least a week. Does anyone have any information about this outage, the status of the website founder and maintainer pharmacist Steven A. Plogsted or a phone number? I did not get a response for my email to glutenfreedrugs@gmail.com in October of 2022. Steven did respond to my emails in 2012. Thanks.

      Sounds like you are in the UK. With blood numbers that high, I thought docs in UK would give an official diagnosis without the biopsy. You should ask about that, so you can get support faster.  I'd try to find and print out anything that supports that in your country, get another appointment and take all of it with you. Even in the US now, some docs are doing this, my 19 year old step granddaughter got an official diagnosis here in US with just blood results a few months ago.

      Is soy sauce in Korea also made from wheat like it usually is in US? I'd be concerned that even if asking about gluten, they would not be aware of or think of some like that.
