Hi, Is it possible to present only one result possitive to have Celiac? My test results are:

IgA Endomysial antibody negative
Igg Endomysial antibody negative

Anti-gliadin Igg negative
Anti-gliadin antibody IgA 19 Ui/ml
(Lab reference: positive beyond 12 UI/ml)

Welcome!  

Yes!  It is not common, but it happens.  I tested positive on only the Anti-gliadin IGA.  The rest of the celiac panel was negative even in follow-up testing.  The next step would be to a Gastroenterologist for an endoscopy to obtain biopsies.  My biopsies revealed moderate to severe damage.  I presented only with anemia.

Continue eating gluten every single day until the endoscopy is done.

      gluten-free Oatmeal

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Oats naturally contain a protein called avenin, which is similar to the gluten proteins found in wheat, barley, and rye. While avenin is generally considered safe for most people with celiac disease, some individuals, around 5-10% of celiacs, may also have sensitivity to avenin, leading to symptoms similar to gluten exposure. You may fall into this category, and eliminating them is the best way to figure this out. Some people substitute gluten-free quinoa flakes for oats if they want a hot cereal substitute. If you are interested in summaries of scientific publications on the topic of oats and celiac disease, we have an entire category dedicated to it which is here: https://www.celiac.com/celiac-disease/oats-and-celiac-disease-are-they-gluten-free/
