Can't decipher results

I have a 5 year old who has had on and off again loose stool his whole life.  He sometimes complains of stomach cramps and when he has to go to the bathroom he has to go fast.  Sometimes the stool is formed but most of the time it's watery and fibery. He's currently being tested for (I don't know what but assume Celiac or Crohn's) and I've received some of the results.  The stool sample isn't back yet.  Anything you all could tell me?  I know you're not doctors but I also know how well versed most of you must be on this stuff.  Thanks in advance. 

Gliadin Deamidated IgA  <10U  negative

Gliadin Deamidated IgG <10 negative

IgG 1070 mg/dL  range is 504-1465

IgA <6 mg/dL range is 27-195

IgM 88mg/dL range is 24-210

IgE 114 IU/mL range is 0-90

transglutaminase IgA <20 Units which was in range and says negative

in his complete bloodcount nothing was out of range

In his metabolic panel nothing was out of range

His ESR was 34 and they gave no range

C-Reactive protein was in range

TSH in range

His manual differential panel says

band neturohphil 0% range is 5-11

Segmented Netrophils 67% range is 32-54

Lymphocytes 27% range is 28-48

all else normal

Any insight you can give would be appreciated.  My thoughts are going in a lot of different directions.  Is it Crohn's? Celiac?  Something I haven't thought of?

Lactose intolerant?  FODMAP issue?

Never diagnosed but never tested. His allergist didn’t think lactose intolerance because he wasn’t throwing up. We ended up in our own going to a GI specialist at A Children’s Hospital.

Odd.  No one I know that is lactose or FODMAP intolerant vomits.  

If you are going to a specialist, than ask him?  Find out what your kid is being tested for.  Ask questions until you understand it or take someone with you who can listen for you and help you understand later.

That Immunoglobulin A (IgA) result?  Is that a “6” or “less than 6”?   He had all lots of Immunoglobulin tests, but one one type of celiac disease testing (DGP).  You could ask for the rest of the celiac panel (EMA and TTG).  Keep in mind that some people are seronegative.

It’s “less than 6”

      Thank you for the links to the articles.  Interesting reading. I'll be telling my brother in law because he has a lot of pain

      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/
