Could someone please help explain my test results. 23 y/o female with no clue what I am dealing with. Diagnosed with Ulcerative Colitis (recently hospitalized for 8 days :( ) and recieved call to come in to see nutritionists. Really all I was told was cut out gluten immediately. Any help is appreciated. Attached is a screen shot of my tests.

Welcome!  I am sorry that you have been so ill.  

The first set of tests are positive for celiac disease.  Normally, the next step is to confirm via biopsy/endoscopy to access for villi damage.  Are you under a Gastroentrologist's care?  I ask because the second test Reticulin is very very old and no longer used to test for celiac disease.  I hope you did not have to pay for that test.  Here is some information about it:

It looks like a NP ordered these tests.  You should really have a medical doctor look at your results.  Often, many do not go forward with the endoscopy because of financial reasons or they are just too ill.  Is this your case?

      Refractory Coeliac Disease research to reduce anxiety

      By MelissaClinPsyD · Posted

      There is no minimum time since diagnosis of refractory coeliac disease to be eligible for this research. The research is a feasibility study for people with refractory coeliac disease since there is currently no psychologically based intervention tailored for refractory coeliac. The aim of this research is to provide therapeutic support that is not routinely offered at gastroenterology clinics thus encourages people to maintain wellbeing in consideration of having symptoms despite a gluten free diet. Hope you gain further clarity and some relief following your endoscopy!

      Is there a minimum time since diagnosis of refractory celiac disease?  I really hope I’m not eligible for your study, but looking for it is one reason my gastroenterologist suggested an endoscopy. I’m having it later this month, due to still having GI symptoms on a strict gluten free diet.

      Anyone diagnosed with Refractory Coeliac Disease can participate (they do not need to be in the UK but would need to be able to speak and understand English as the intervention is facilitated in English language)
