My daughters 2nd test results

Hiya, my daughter has just had a month on gluten and had her 2nd test results, so would love to get your advice on whether you think she actually has celiacs.  Her doctor said she is convinced she does, so we have now been referred to a paediatrician to get a biopsy.  So if any of you clever people wouldn't mind having a look at her results and saying what you think would be great as I'm finding it all very confusing  (these results were given over the phone, so hopefully they are enough info):

Gliadin peptide - 17.2

tTG IgA AB - 15.4

 IGA - 0.7

Endomysial antidoies - positive.

 

Thanks, Melissa

Ranges can vary between labs, so to be safe, I'm going to say that because the EMA is positive, it's a positive.  You just need one on the panel to go forward with a GI consult.

I agree! MAKE SURE TO KEEP YOUR DAUGHTER ON GLUTEN UNTIL THE ENDOSCOPY IS DONE!

      Thank you for the links to the articles.  Interesting reading. I'll be telling my brother in law because he has a lot of pain

      Oats naturally contain a protein called avenin, which is similar to the gluten proteins found in wheat, barley, and rye. While avenin is generally considered safe for most people with celiac disease, some individuals, around 5-10% of celiacs, may also have sensitivity to avenin, leading to symptoms similar to gluten exposure. You may fall into this category, and eliminating them is the best way to figure this out. Some people substitute gluten-free quinoa flakes for oats if they want a hot cereal substitute. If you are interested in summaries of scientific publications on the topic of oats and celiac disease, we have an entire category dedicated to it which is here: https://www.celiac.com/celiac-disease/oats-and-celiac-disease-are-they-gluten-free/
