Cyrex results, igg?

I've suspected for a while something is screwing with my body. I've had some geographic tongue that started about a year ago. On and off unexplained fatigue, etc. Went through a gambit of testing over the years but nothing came up.

Recently had the Cyrex array 3 done. Results were all normal except elevated IGG for wheat and wheat germ Agglutinin. I've read conflicting things on IGG, but mostly that it doesn't mean anything. Could it just be because I ingested wheat before the testing was done? Might eliminating wheat still be worth it?

Wheat IgG 1.92 0.3-1.5
Wheat IgA 0.52 0.1-1.2
Wheat Germ Agglutinin IgG 2.20 0.4-1.3
Wheat Germ Agglutinin IgA 0.27 0.2-1.1
Native & Deamidated Gliadin 33 IgG 0.42 0.2-1.2
Native & Deamidated Gliadin 33 IgA 0.31 0.1-1.1
Alpha Gliadin 17-mer IgG 0.29 0.1-1.5

Gamma Gliadin 15-mer IgG 0.62 0.5-1.5
Gamma Gliadin 15-mer IgA 0.37 0.1-1.0
Omega Gliadin 17-mer IgG <0.30 0.3-1.2
Omega Gliadin 17-mer IgA 0.14 0.1-1.2
Glutenin 21-mer IgG 0.96 0.1-1.5
Glutenin 21-mer IgA 0.22 0.1-1.3
Gluteomorphin + Prodynorphin IgG 0.33 0.3-1.2
Gluteomorphin + Prodynorphin IgA 0.11 0.1-1.2

I've lost some of my sense of taste due most likely to zinc deficiency from not eating beef for a couple of years. Zinc supplement doesn't seem to help, but eating .5 to 1 lb of beef per day definitely does help. I noticed a positive change within days of eating beef. I don't know if your diet includes beef, but if it doesn't there's a reason for you.

If your concerned on wheat/gluten, see about getting a actual celiac blood test done, you have to be eating wheat for the test to be accurate. After that you will need the follow up endoscope and biopsy. Open Original Shared Link

Thought cyrex is very similar to a celiac testing panel?

Mostly I was just curious if IGG test results are worth anything as an indicator. I've read they can just indicate that you're actually tolerate or have recent eaten the foods (I was prior to the test).

I don't think they currently do medically approved Celiac testing ( last I heard).

      Welcome, @JudyLou, Your rash sounds very similar to the one I experienced.  Mine was due to a deficiency in Niacin B3, although I had deficiencies in other nutrients as well.  Celiac disease causes malabsorption of all the essential nutrients, but eating a poor diet, taking certain medications, or drinking alcohol can result in deficiency diseases outside of Celiac, too.  Symptoms can wax and wane depending on dietary intake.  I knew an alcoholic who had the "boots" of Pellagra, which would get worse when he was drinking more heavily, and improve when he was drinking less.   Niacin deficiency is called Pellagra.  Symptoms consist of dermatitis, diarrhea, dementia, and death (the four D's).  A scaly rash on the feet and hands and arms are called the "boots" and "gloves" of Pellagra.  Darkened skin around the neck exposed to the sun is Casal's necklace.  Poor farmers with niacin deficient diets were called "red necks" because of this.    Does your rash get worse if you're in the sun?  Mine did.  Any skin exposed to the sun got blistered and scaly.  Arms, legs, neck, head.  Do you have dry, ashy skin on your feet?  The itchiness was not only from the rash, but neuropathy.   My doctors were clueless.  They didn't put all my symptoms together into the three D's.  But I did.  I'd learned about Pellagra at university.  But there weren't supposed to be deficiency diseases anymore in the developed world.  Doubtful it could be that simple, I started supplementing with Niacin and other essential nutrients.  I got better.   One of Niacinamide functions is to help stop mast cells from releasing histamine.  Your allergist gave you doxepin, an antihistamine which stops mast cells from releasing histamine.   Since you do have a Celiac gene, staying on the gluten free diet can prevent Celiac disease from being triggered again.   Interesting Reading: These case studies have pictures...

      This doctor is obviously under educated about Celiac Disease. Deficiencies that can cause oral thrush (Candidiasis) mouth ulcers: Thiamine B1 B12 Folate Zinc Vitamin C B2 B6 Iron Malabsorption Syndrome is often co-morbid with Celiac Disease causing multiple deficiencies of the essential vitamins and minerals.  Low or deficient  Vitamin D is almost always found in undiagnosed Celiac Disease. "Over 900 genes have been reported as regulated by vitamin D"  Possible Role of Vitamin D in Celiac Disease Onset  "The overall prevalence rate of vitamin D deficiency was 41.6%, with the highest rate seen in blacks (82.1%), followed by Hispanics (69.2%)."    Prevalence and correlates of vitamin D deficiency in US adults

      I saw the thing for testing for gluten when at public places.I absolutely love but I wonder if they would come up with a bracelet or necklace that can detect gluten in the air.I would LOVE that, i know i get debilitating migraine from smelling gluten wheat what have you, all I know is when I go into places like Chevron- gluten Subway, migraine, Costco that food smell of nasty gluten- migraine and same with Walmart subway.I absolutely HATE im that sensitive, my body reacts.Sadly medical hasn't taken core issue of celiac being an issue considering glutenfree ever since 1994 and in their eyes not because they didn't diagnose me. I am and wish I wasn't. If there was a detector of gluten in the air it would make a world of difference.

      Oops! @Staticgypsy, I’ll get the book! Thank you!

      Thank you so much for your help, @trents and @Staticgypsy! I so appreciate your thoughts. My diet is high in foods with oxalates and I don’t notice any issues there. If eliminating gluten from my diet had changed anything I’d be happy to just keep on the gluten-free diet, but with eating gluten several times with no rash, and having a rash when I was many years into gluten-free eating (and was much more careful at that point), I’m just baffled. Many, many thanks to you both.
