Second daughter got blood test with outrageously high Transglutaminase igA 734 and she is not symptomatic.    Anyone know what the average range is for those with celiac disease?    Our other daugher was 99 and symptomatic.  Wondering if this is a lab error.   Don't think this is physiologically possible.   Thanks.  Mayumi

Was it a different lab?  A lot of labs just stop "counting" at 100.  Mine just said ">100".  

 

She probably has symptoms, you just don't realize they are from Celiac.

I know different labs have different numbers. For instance our local lab I think stops at 250.  That’s what by son’s number was when he was first tested. When tested a second time at Sick Kids Hospital in Toronto he was in the 700’s. it’s a bit more complicated than that I think. The analogy they used with me is like a pregnancy blood test.  Some people have low numbers  and others really high. Bottom line they are both preganant. Hope that makes sense!

My diagnosis was shocking as I had no gastrointestinal symptoms at all!  There are over 200 symptoms attributed to celiac disease.  Some are even hidden.  Two months after my diagnosis I fractured my back doing nothing.  Unknown to everyone,  I had osteoporosis.  ?

      Constant low back, abdominal and pelvic pain!

      By Aussienae · Posted

      Mine is definitely triggered by inflammation and stress! I do also have arthritis in my spine, but the pain is more in my pelvic area. Im sure i have other food intolerances or other autoimmune isues but the more I focus on it and see doctor after doctor, it just gets worse.  Best thing is get of Gluten! (I also avoid lactose). Try to limit stress and anything that causes inflammation in your body.

      Constant low back, abdominal and pelvic pain!

      By ButWhatCanIEat · Posted

      Good morning,   I got an email about replies to this post. Some of my doctors had blamed a slipped disc for the pain I had and that contributes, but after meeting with a gastroenterologist AGAIN and trying some lifestyle modifications, I found out I have IBS and can't tolerate corn or excessive fructose to any degree. Cutting out corn AFTER having cut out all gluten containing products was a real pain but I feel much better now!

      Isolated DPG-Iga

      By trents · Posted

      So, I contacted Scott Adams, the author of that article and also the creator/admin of this website, and pointed out to him the need to clarify the information in the paragraph in question. He has now updated the paragraph and it is clear that the DGP-IGA does serve the purpose of circumventing the false negatives that IGA deficiencies can generate in the tTG-IGA antibody test.

      Lymph nodes

      By Soleihey · Posted

      Has anyone experimenced enlarged lymph nodes with celiac? Both in the neck and groin area. Imaging of both areas have said that lymph nodes are reactive in nature. However, they have been present for months and just wondering how long this may take to go down. Been gluten-free for about two months. Blood counts are normal.
