Hello. I just got blood test results back for celiac. And I tested at the top of negative and the bottom of weak positive at exactly 4 u/ml. What does that mean if anything? The results said negative but my research says maybe weak positive. Any advice us appreciated. Thanks

Welcome!

Since your result is inconclusive, see if your doctor can order the entire celiac panel, if they only ordered the TTG:

How was your Immunoglobulin A (IgA) test?  When used during celiac testing it hellos validate your results.  What led you to be tested?

      Thanks for your input.

      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 flareups.

      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 recently?

      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.
