- SMK7 replied to SMK7's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms17High IGA antigliadin, everything else normal, what does this mean?
Yes, I made an effort to eat extra gluten at least 3 weeks before the endoscopy. I probably ate a some amount in the weeks before that. I had diarrhea, which resolved once I cut back after the endoscopy. So I think it would make sense to go mostly gluten free? -
- ShariW commented on Scott Adams's article in Gluten-Free Foods & Beverages1Is Costco Rotisserie Chicken Gluten-Free? A Must-Read for Celiac and Gluten-Sensitive Shoppers (+Video)
I have been OK with Costco rotisserie chicken. Not OK with rotisserie chicken from some other stores in my area like Fresh Market and Food Lion. I am very sensitive to cross-contamination.- 1

Yay for the normal biopsy! Thanks for the follow up. Were you eating gluten prior to the endoscopy? -

I think that with the elevated antibodies found in past tests, and a negative biopsy, you are firmly in the NCGS camp. If symptoms go away on a gluten-free diet it would be confirmation that you should likely stay on the diet. -

Just to follow up on this, a year later I had endoscopy, the result was mild chronic gastritis, the initial endoscopy looked normal and the biopsy was normal.

Please explain more about the tests you took. What type of blood test was it? Which company offered the test? Also, there is no hair test for celiac disease--what was that test? Also, for your GP to test you for celiac disease you must keep eating gluten daily, and lots of it. Here is more info about how to do a gluten challenge for a celiac disease blood panel, or for an endoscopy: and this recent study recommends 4-6 slices of wheat bread per day:
