Help With Test Results

My test results were: GLIADIN (DEAMIDATED) AB (IGA)      49         range<20

                                       TISSUE TRANSGLUTAMINASE AB, IGA    10     range<4

Biopsy results were: Villous tip blunting and intraepithelial lymphocytosis and lymphoplasmacytic infiltrate suspicious with celiac sprue. Under clinical info it says: A. R/O sprue   B.  N/G

Doc said to go on gluten free diet, but I'm the type that needs to know for sure.

Can anyone help me? Maybe further testing will be more conclusive?

Thank you so much for your reply:) I am feeling alone in all this. I have stopped gluten, but was wondering if it was really necessary.

Yes. You are positive on 3 out of 3 tests. It doesn't get much more positive than that.  :( Welcome to the board.

 

There is a lot of info around here so look through the threads. Ask questions or just vent. the people around here are very helpful and encouraging. And hang in there... the first few weeks are often the hardest, mentally and physically.

I started feeling better very quickly, within a few days, but I have read it is different for everyone. I already knew a lot about nutrition, and healthy eating. My diet has always been simple, whole foods with simple processing if any so it was easy for me to get the gluten out of my cabinets and fridge. That could of been a reason for my rapid improvement. 

I hate eating out, for so many years it was all I could do because of my work. That is all to say, I have not had a hard time changing this one thing. I don't know yet how sensitive I will be to accidentally contacting unrecognized gluten. 

I can say the benefit of only one thing, decreased pain and digestive problems, is by itself reward enough to make any effort worth the gain. That isn't the only benefit though. I think I'm like the blindfolded person asked to describe the nature of an elephant by holding it's tail. I have a sense of something large but as yet can only hold to a thin rope.

Hang on tight, ride that elephant  :D it's gonna be great!

      Nausea

      I have trouble with nausea. It often starts when I’m anxious about something (home repairs, sick dog) but continues long after the home is repaired or the dog is healthy again. When it happens I eat less and lose weight. My gastroenterologist suggested ginger or peppermint tea. I don’t know if that will work or not because I haven't had the problem since she...

      Nicotine Gum For Gluten Symptoms.. Am I Crazy?

      Of course my son is on a 100% gluten free diet. I wish his symptoms were not debilitating as there are right now. He cannot work, even when a miniscule of cross contamination occurs. It's not just GI distress, but intense fatigue, brain fog, depression, anxiety, insomnia, etc. It's literally neurological inflammation. Not to be taken lightly here. We...

      Nicotine Gum For Gluten Symptoms.. Am I Crazy?

      Have you tried AN-PEP enzymes, for example, GlutenX (who is a sponsor here)? A lot of research has shown that it can break down small amounts of gluten in the stomach, before it reaches the intestines. It might be a better approach than risking nicotine addiction, and the questionable research around this. I also hope that he’s trying to be 100% Gluten-F...

      Nausea

      Hi all I was diagnosed Coeliac a few years ago and follow a gluten free diet. The list of foods that I can eat without a problem grows shorter on a weekly basis. [I also have diabetes and asthma also]. BUT the reason I am posting this is because I seem to struggle with nausea quite a lot, which is really quite debilitating, and I was wondering...

      Hello  I'm not sure what to think . Seems no matter what I do I get sick. I had some yogurt with only 2 grams of sugar and is labeled gluten free ...the strawberry version seemed to really set me off My jaw is burning as well as my stomach and my feet.  Horrible pain..plus acid reflux and nausea... sensitivity to touch pain. ..yikes !! I don't know if it's from the lactose in the yogurt or if I'm getting an ulcer  This condition can make you question yourself quite a bit.  Then if you are not sure the anxiety comes 😞 Does any of these symptoms sound familiar to anyone? The neuropathy is quite intense.  What do you eat or drink after this happens  Open to suggestions  Thank you
