Did the GI order this genetic test?  

Yes

The odds are that you do not have celiac disease.  You could be one of the rare cases of alternative genes (less than three percent), like Raven.    Your DGP IGA was elevated.  Did he do a repeat celiac panel?  You could have Crohn's.  I thought for sure my niece had celiac disease.  She went to four GI over a three year period.  She did not have the predominant genes, negative celiac disease panel.  A pill camera caught her Crohn's located beyond the reach of both scopes.  

Keep adovcating!

Yeah, it would be pretty rare. No, he did not do a repeat celiac panel. He did do some tests for inflammation markers and they came back negative. Will see what the colonoscopy and endoscopy says. I see allergy testing in my future, however.  Does anyone know what the HLA markers under the 2 celiacs negative ones mean? Does that mean I'm carrying those or is it just lab coding?

Since I never had a genetic test, I have not really researched it.  I think it they are sub-variants. Definitely not lab coding.

I went and spoke to a geneticist I know from work... im homozygous for the one its found in people who have narcolepsy.  I've inherited the gene marker from both parents= homozygous.  The DQ1 I believe it was is the location on the genes. Its also present in persons with MS, diabetes type1, and another type of auto immune disease.  I'm pretty sure I've not got narcolepsy but good to know. I've seen some stuff about that gene and NCGS. Wondering why that marker was even looked for? Going to assume if they see any of those that they notify...

      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?

      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...

      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?
