It's a shame that we can't contact him and let him know to be tested.

He looks like a candidate for celiac sprue to me.

Why do you think that? You do know that he just had major heart problems a few months ago and has lost weight on purpose improve his health?

heart problems.

I can't say he's in the best of health but he has lost a bunch of weight ON PURPOSE and he did have serious heart trouble. I don't think celiac is a consideration.

Can you imagine being in public office, having to eat at all those state dinners all over the world, and being celiac? The risks would be enormous. You would have to have a special chef travel with you at all times or risk being in some foreign hospital regularly.

I think it would be easier. They plan these things so well and everything would be alerted and taken care of. They also don't just serve the President anything when over seas. What if someone tried to harm him!

People would be more aware of the food he gets to make sure it doesn't contain anything he couldn't have. I think it would be easier because you would have so many people who are cautious. He probably would get the best tasting gluten-free stuff to.

      Welcome to the forum, @SuzanneL! Which tTG was that? tTG-IGA? tTG-IGG? Were there other celiac antibody tests run from that blood draw? Was total IGA measured? By some chance were you already cutting back on gluten by the time the blood draw was taken or just not eating much? For the celiac antibody tests to be accurate a person needs to be eating about 10g of gluten daily which is about 4-6 pieces of bread.

      I've recently received a weak positive tTG, 6. For about six years, I've been sick almost everyday. I was told it was just my IBS. I have constant nausea. Sometimes after I eat, I have sharp, upper pain in my abdomen. I sometimes feel or vomit (bile) after eating. The doctor wanted me to try a stronger anti acid before doing an endoscopy. I'm just curious if these symptoms are pointing towards Celiac Disease?

      I'm sorry to hear about what you're going through. It must be really frustrating and uncomfortable. Have you talked to your healthcare provider about these sudden sweating episodes? It might be helpful to discuss this with them to rule out any other underlying issues or to see if there are specific strategies or treatments that can help manage this symptom. Additionally, staying hydrated and wearing breathable clothing may provide some relief.
