Ok i have been dealing with this crazy breakouts for about 1year and half. None of that doctors can figure out whats causeing md to break out. I have figured out that im dealing with dermatitis herpetiformis, i have stop eatting stuff with gluten and the itching and the burning and the blistering has gone down. Im still having smaller out breaks but i was having break outs all over my body. Its really hard going gluten free. I need help tring to find a doctor or type of docter to contact to get diagnosis or if theres some kind of test ive been diagnosed. With 5 different diseases and i took meds and no luck. Also i saw that some people also dont eat or drink milk products when they r on a gluten free diet. Is that important not to eat or drink milk products? Im so frusterated. Im itchy all the time and my face is horridle looking sometimes because the blisters turn in to scabs and than im scared to go into public because of the stares. I have been gluten free for about two weeks and it has helped alot but if i mess up and eat something with gluten my skin goes crazy. Help please

You need to read this entire thread all the way through & read the links contained in it also. That will tell you what you are asking & about the tests & about why the tests won't work for you now because you are already gluten free.

      That means the normal range (i.e. not celiac disease) would be a result less than 14.99.  Your result is WAY above that. Some gastroenterologists would diagnose that as celiac disease even without a confirming biopsy because it is more than ten times the top of the normal range.

      Hi everyone. Back in 2022 I had blood work drawn for iga ext gliadin. Since then I’ve developed worse stomach issues and all other health issues. My doctor just said cut out gluten. He did no further testing. Please see my test results attached. I just need some direction cause I feel so ill and the stomach pain is becoming worse. Can this test show indications for other gastrointestinal diseases?

      Thank you. These were the results TTG ABS NUMERICAL: > 250.0 U/mL [< 14.99]  Really don’t understand the results!

      Clearly from what you've said the info on Dailymed is much more up to date than the other site, which hasn't been updated since 2017. The fact that some companies might be repackaging drugs does not mean the info on the ingredients is not correct.

      To evaluate the TTG antibody result we’d need to know the normal range for that lab.  Labs don’t all use the same units.  However, based on any normal ranges that I’ve seen and the listed result being greater than a number rather than a specific number, I’d say yes, that is high! Higher than the range where the test can give a quantitative result. You got good advice not to change your diet yet.  If you went gluten free your intestines would start to heal, confusing any further testing,
