Hi, I am hoping someone can help me, I had blood work done but for the life of my I cannot understand the results:

Deamidated Gliadin peptide Ab IgG = <^0.5   (Units U/mL)

“Reference” is <12.00

----Note on Test: IgG antibody to deamidated gliadin has approximately 85% sensitivity and 95% specificity for celiac disease. Deamidated gliadin IgG has particular utility in the detection of celiac disease in children younger than 2 years old and

those with IgA deficiency. Tested by a multiplex flow immunoassay (BioPlex) method.

 

Tissue Transglutaminase Ab IgA = <^0.5 (Units U/mL)

“Reference” is <12.00

-----Note on Test: IgA antibody to tissue transglutaminase has approximately 95% sensitivity and specificity for celiac disease. False negative results may occur with a gluten-restricted diet or IgA deficiency. The BioPlex method includes an internal control to confirm IgA is sufficent, thus avoiding false negatives due to IgA deficiency. Tested by a multiplex flow immunoassay (BioPlex) method

 

 

Thank you so much for any help at all!

Jackie, we need a little more information please. Were those the only 2 tests done on you?

The 2 tests you posted are negative but that is not the full celiac panel.

Yes, they told me these were the only tests.

Which ones should I need above these? They consider this the " Celiac Disease Testing " where i got the tests done. 

Any help would be great, my doctor is not very helpful.

my results were: 

Anti-Tissue Transglutaminase IgA Ab <2 CU

What does that mean?

      Celiac disease symptoms

      If you have hemorrhoids 1x weekly I don't see how you have time to heal from one episode before you experience another one, unless each one is a very minor event. Have you consulted a physician about your hemorrhoid issue? It's not normal to be having an episode every week unless it is really one episode that is not completely healing between weekly...

      No I haven't had one since 2021. I rarely have more than 1 per week.

      Sorry, I see that now as I reread your original post. You say you have hemorrhoids "only once a week" now. When I develop hemorrhoids, which is once every few years now, it generally takes 3-4 days for healing to take place. So, it doesn't seem like you could have much relief time between episodes if you have them weekly. Have you had a lower GI scoping done...

      Celiac disease symptoms

      Everyday I eat a medium to large apple in the morning and a large banana at night. I eat a cup of oatmeal in the evening. The ezekiel wheat bread I eat has a good amount of fiber. I haven't dealt with constipation for at least a year. Most of the time my feces are soft.

      It's not uncommon to experience some bleeding with hemorrhoids but I doubt enough to materially effect your iron levels. About your constipation. Are you getting enough fiber in your diet? 25-30 grams per day is the adult recommendation. Eggs and chicken have zero fiber. One medium apple or one average banana will have about 3 g. of fiber.

Are you getting enough fiber in your diet? 25-30 grams per day is the adult recommendation. Eggs and chicken have zero fiber. One medium apple or one average banana will have about 3 g. of fiber. A serving of oatmeal will have 3-4 g. Just to give you an idea. It's harder than you think to get 25-30 g of fiber. You have to plan for it and work at it. Getting plenty of hydration is important as well.
