What do my test results mean? Any Ideas?

Can anyone interpret these numbers? I got a genetic test from EnteroLab & this is what was sent back. I know they said I have one gene plus an additional gluten intolerance gene. My mom has severe celiacs. Plus I was off gluten when I did this test. But i'm curious about the numbers. I'v tried to understand them but there's so many combinations with different meanings. Things are saying diabetes (my dad has type 1), autoimmune, celiacs....

HLA-DQB1 Molecular analysis, Allele 1*      03:02   

HLA-DQB1 Molecular analysis, Allele 2*      02:02   

Serologic equivalent: HLA-DQ   3,2  (Subtype 8,2)

Welcome, @edithann3 :)

Please see this conversation here regarding enterolab. Enterolab is not very reliable when it comes to their testing. 

Since your mom has celiac, have you been to your doctor for celiac screening to see if you have the gene?  I would really stick to your medical team when it comes to disease.

If you are off gluten, no celiac test will be accurate.  You need to eat gluten for 8-12 weeks prior to blood tests, and I believe 2 weeks prior to an endoscope.

That said, doesn't enterolab offer any type of explanation of test results?  I haven't a clue what those numbers mean. Besides, it seems like a ripoff that the lab would not have any guidelines for interpretation, unless they say somewhere on their website that you have to have a doctor interpret.

      I was taking medicine for sibo but it was not agreeing with my stomach at all.Was on gabapentin but it amps me up.I was taking in morning because it wasn't allowing me to sleep.This has always been an issue with medicine and me.Even going to dentist, the good shot that numbs you once, I can't take because it makes my heart beat fast and I  get the shakes.I have to take the crappy stuff and get injected always more than 4 times always.Its infuriating

      I showed one doctor I went to once because completely clueless of celiac disease and yes that one was connected to a well known hospital and she said oh thats just a bunch of people that think they are celiac coming together. I said um no they have doctors and knowledge behind what is being written. So bay area is Downplaying this site! SADLY

      If you successfully digest gluten with enzyme supplements so it won’t give you side effects, your challenge won’t be worthwhile because the digested fragments of gluten also won’t stimulate antibody production or cause intestinal damage.

      Thanks for the resource! I will check it out!

      You can search this site for prescriptions medications, but will need to know the manufacturer/maker if there is more than one, especially if you use a generic version of the medication: To see the ingredients you will need to click on the correct version of the medication and maker in the results, then scroll down to "Ingredients and Appearance" and click it, and then look at "Inactive Ingredients," as any gluten ingredients would likely appear there, rather than in the Active Ingredients area. https://dailymed.nlm.nih.gov/dailymed/
