Welcome, what does it say after "see note" ? I only see results for a couple of the tests. Maybe the rest aren't in yet?

I agree, information seems to be missing.  I assume that TNP means “test not performed”.  So, no EMA IgA or TTG IgG probably because your Immunoglobulin IgA is most likely normal (ranges are normally provided and this lab likes to save costs.   Not sure of the range for the TTG IgA, so I would hate to guess.  It might be negative.  Ask the lab for complete results or your doctor.  

If you still suspect celiac disease, note that some celiacs are seronegative and some (like me) never test positive to either the EMA or TTG.  In my case, I need the DGP test.  You could ask for that or go to a biopsy of the small intestine.  Consult with a GI.

      @Martha Mitchell, your reaction to the lens implant with gluten sounds like it could be an allergic reaction rather than a celiac reaction. It is possible for a celiac to be also allergic to gluten as it is a protein component in wheat, barley and rye.

      Scott I also have different symptoms than most people. It affects me bad. Stomach ache, headache, nauseous, heart racing, whole body shaking, can't walk then my throat starts to close. It attacks my nervous system. The only thing that saves me is a 1/2 of Xanax...it calms down my nervous system

      Scott Adams. I was dealing with a DR that didn't care about me being celiac. I repeatedly told him that I was celiac and is everything gluten-free. He put an acrylic lens from j&j. I called the company to ask about gluten and was told yes that the acrylic they use has gluten....then they back tracked immediately and stopped talking to me. The Dr didn't care that I was having issues. It took me 6 months and a lot of sickness to get it removed.... which can only happen within 6 months. The Dr that took it out said that it was fused and that's why I lost vision. If they would have removed it right away everything would be fine. He put in a silicone one that was gluten-free and I've had no issues at all in the other eye. Do not do acrylic!

      Welcome @Martha Mitchell, I too would like to know more about your prior lenses, and especially about the potential of gluten in lenses. In theory this should not harm most celiacs, as the autoimmune reaction normally begins in the gut, however, in those who are super sensitive or have dermatitis herpetiformis it may be a potential issue.
