Component Standard Range Your Value TISSUE TRANSGLUTAMINASE IgG <=0.90 Index 0.10 Tissue transglutaminase IgA <=0.90 Index 0.19

This is what it said.... i feel lost ...I know that this rash has got to be linked to gluten. Its the only thing that explains everything thats going on, But , the levels are so low almost non existent. Im so confused I just want to feel better =(

If your rash is dermatitis herpetiformis (DH) then you may end up with false negatives.  Those with dh have a notoriously high false negative rate for the blood tests and endoscopic biopsy.  Often a biopsy beside the rash is needed.

 

Were you eating gluten in the 2-3 months before the test was done?

 yes, it had only been about a week that I stopped. And that was food, I did not go threw my hair products etc. But, honestly I guess im not that much of a bread, pasta eater. but, I know its in all sorts of things. I will contact my dermatologist. thanks for the info.

i encourage you to read our DH section. There are some great postings on how exactly to biopsy a DH rash. Lots of Derms mess up!

      Trying to read my lab results

      Hi Scott, yes I have had symptoms for years and this is the second GI I have seen and he could not believe I have never been tested. He called later today and I am scheduled for an endoscopy. Is there a way to tell how severe my potential celiac is from the results above? What are the chances I will have the biopsy and come back negative and we have to keep...

      Constant low back, abdominal and pelvic pain!

      I agree christina, there is definitely many contributing factors! I have the pain today, my pelvis, hips and thighs ache! No idea why. But i have been sitting at work for 3 days so im thinking its my back. This disease is very mysterious (and frustrating) but not always to blame for every pain.

      Why?

      "her stool study showed she had extreme reactions to everything achievement on it long course of microbials to treat that." The wording of this part of the sentence does not make any sense at all. I don't mean to insult you, but is English your first language? This part of the sentence sounds like it was generated by translation software.

      Why?

      What kind of stool test was done? Can you be more specific?

      Why?

      Perhaps I should also have said that in addition to showing a very high response to gluten, her stool study showed that she had extreme reactions to everything achievement on it long course of microbials to treat that.

Is there a way to tell how severe my potential celiac is from the results above? What are the chances I will have the biopsy and come back negative and we have to keep searching for a cause?
