You are positive for celiac disease as your level og total serum IGA is high. You should read about cross contamination and any vitamins that are gluten free and Ensure is also a good option for vitamins.

I dont under stand - having a good serum IGA only means you can make what is looked at on an IGA based test.  And a 213 is usually in the normal range ( some labs might have a bit different range than others).

I am not sure there is a problem with your Celiac results.  They sound negative or maybe a tiny bit elevated ( not sure of the lab’s normal levels on the the one that is “5”.  Sounds like you are doing a good job on the gluten-free diet.

were you gluten free when the blood work was done?

Hi. I just got my blood test results back and the doctor said it was negative for Celiac. I know if a person has an IgA deficiency it could be a false negative. How do I know if the total IgA was measured? These are the only 3 things that were measured. The first 2 seem extremely low, but I'm guessing that's a good thing, right?

TISSUE TRANSGLUTAMINASE AB IGG <0.8 (Normal Range <15)

anti-tissue transglutaminase IgA <0.5 U/mL (Normal Range <15)

IMMUNOGLOBULIN A 100 (Normal Range 70-400)

      More great tips, and a good excuse to shop at M&S and also buy more iced buns!   I wish we had an ASDA near us, as the few times we've been to one their gluten-free pasta range seemed very reasonably priced compared to other shops.  Thanks so much, @Russ H.

      I hope you are on the mend soon. About 1 in 5 people who contracted chicken pox as a child go on to develop shingles in later life - it is not uncommon. There are 5 known members of the herpes virus family including chicken pox that commonly infect humans, and they all cause lifelong infections. The exact cause of viral reactivation as in the case of shingles or cold sores is not well understood, but stress, sunburn and radiotherapy treatment are known triggers. Some of the herpes viruses are implicated in triggering autoimmune diseases: Epstein-Barr virus is suspected of triggering multiple sclerosis and lupus, and there is a case where it is suspected of triggering coeliac disease. As to whether coeliac disease can increase the likelihood of viral reactivation, there have been several cohort studies including a large one in Sweden suggesting that coeliac disease is associated with a moderate increase in the likelihood of developing shingles in people over the age of 50.

      BFree bread is fortified with vitamins and minerals as is ASDA own-brand gluten-free bread. All the M&S bread seems to be fortified also.
