Hi everyone,I'm very new to this. I'm being tested for celiac disease. Doctor said I definitely have a gluten allergy. So I got my test results from the doctors office today, still wait on lab quest results. I just don't under any of them, so if anyone could help that would be great.

test. Results. Range

tsh. 2.65. .50-6.00

Vb12. 311. 230-1050

Wbc. 13.9. High. 3.1-9.2

Rbc. 4.65. 3.1-9.2

Hgb. 14.9 gr. 11.5-16.1

Hct. 43.6% 34.5-47.8

Mcv. 93.8 cu miCr 82.6-95.8

Mch. 32.0 pico gr 27.9-32.9

Mchc. 34.1% 32.6-35.4

Rdw. 13.2% 11.4-14.6

Plt. 319. 140-350

MpV. 8.1. 7.0-10.6

Seg. 56% 45-75

Lymph. 39% 20-45

Mono. 0% 0-10

Band. 5% 0-5

The only thing I see is my Wbc count is high.

No celiac results here. A high WBC can indicate an infection, but we are not doctors here. I am sure your doctor will investigate further. Your thyroid could be off or normal. It is not a complete thyroid panel. Let us know your celiac results. Hopefully, they took a complete panel or a diagnosis can be missed.

I wish you well!

There isn't any such thing as a "gluten allergy".  You may test positive for a wheat allergy but you would most likely already know if that was true as the symptoms of an actual allergic reaction happen from immediately after ingestion to about 2 hours after.

 

That said, nothing in the bloodwork you posted is allergy testing.

Ok when I eat gluten, I very sick, first my stomach starts to hurt, i get bloated then the next I feel like I have the flu, my joints and muscle hurts so bad I can hardly move. I'm exhausted, I have a headache that will not go away, painful gas. Then the diarrhea starts. I'm like this for 4-5 days. It feels like I'm being slowly poisoned to death.

Sorry that you are not feeling well!

Celiac disease is an autoimmune disorder (like Lupus, Etc.) that is triggered by consuming gluten. It causes damage to the intestines and can produce up to 300 symptoms. Here is a link to the University of Chicago's celiac website that does a good job of covering all the basics:

Open Original Shared Link

Post the results of your celiac tests when you get them, along with the ranges (different labs have different ranges) and we will try to help you out. Keep eating gluten until all testing is complete (you might need an endoscopy next).

Hang in there!

      Blood Test for Celiac wheat type matters?

      Wheatwacked, are you speaking of the use of potassium bromide and and azodicarbonamide as dough modifiers being controlling factor for what? Do you refer to celiac reactions to gluten or thyroid disease, kidney disease, GI cancers?

      Blood Test for Celiac wheat type matters?

      In Europe they have banned several dough modifiers potassium bromide and and azodicarbonamide. Both linked to cancers. Studies have linked potassium bromide to kidney, thyroid, and gastrointestinal cancers. A ban on it in goes into effect in California in 2027. I suspect this, more than a specific strain of wheat to be controlling factor. Sourdough...

      need help understanding testing result for Naked Nutrition Creatine please

      They don’t give a sample size (serving size is different from sample size) so it is hard to tell just what the result means. However, the way the result is presented does look like it is below the limit of what their test can measure, so that is good.

      Excess iodine supplements can cause significant health issues, primarily disrupting thyroid function. My daughter has issues with even small amounts of dietary iodine. While iodine is essential for thyroid hormone production, consistently consuming amounts far above the tolerable upper limit (1,100 mcg/day for adults) from high-dose supplements can trigger both hyperthyroidism or hypothyroidism, worsen autoimmune thyroid diseases like Hashimoto's, and lead to goiter. Other side effects include gastrointestinal distress. The risk is highest for individuals with pre-existing thyroid conditions, and while dietary iodine rarely reaches toxic levels, unsupervised high-dose supplementation is dangerous and should only be undertaken with medical guidance to avoid serious complications. It's best to check with your doctor before supplementing iodine.

      In Europe they have banned several dough modifiers potassium bromide and and azodicarbonamide.  Both linked to cancers.  Studies have linked potassium bromide to kidney, thyroid, and gastrointestinal cancers.  A ban on it in goes into effect in California in 2027. I suspect this, more than a specific strain of wheat to be controlling factor.  Sourdough natural fermentation conditions the dough without chemicals. Iodine was used in the US as a dough modifier until the 1970s. Since then iodine intake in the US dropped 50%.  Iodine is essential for thyroid hormones.  Thyroid hormone use for hypothyroidism has doubled in the United States from 1997 to 2016.   Clinical Thyroidology® for the Public In the UK, incidently, prescriptions for the thyroid hormone levothyroxine have increased by more than 12 million in a decade.  The Royal Pharmaceutical Society's official journal Standard thyroid tests will not show insufficient iodine intake.  Iodine 24 Hour Urine Test measures iodine excretion over a full day to evaluate iodine status and thyroid health. 75 year old male.  I tried adding seaweed into my diet and did get improvement in healing, muscle tone, skin; but in was not enough and I could not sustain it in my diet at the level intake I needed.  So I supplement 600 mcg Liquid Iodine (RDA 150 to 1000 mcg) per day.  It has turbocharged my recovery from 63 years of undiagnosed celiac disease.  Improvement in healing a non-healing sebaceous cyst. brain fog, vision, hair, skin, nails. Some with dermatitis herpetiformis celiac disease experience exacerbation of the rash with iodine. The Wolff-Chaikoff Effect Crying Wolf?
