I got my IgG and Transglutaminase levels reports

My IgG was 40.6 with the normal reference range being between 0 - 29.9

My transglutaminase was 16.9 with the normal being lower tha 7.0

These seem quite high and wanted to know what others had?

I had the tissue transglutamase test and I believe that my number was around 20.

I have to admit I'm not sure which tests my son had, but they were represented in a ratio.

Anything less than 1 : 2.5 is negative for Celiac (Mom, Dad and big brother).

Ty's was 1 : 650.

Yikes! We have a follow up soon, so I'll ask for a look at all the paperwork. At the original test and first follow up we were all so overwhelmed, it didn't occur to me to ask about the tests that were run.

i got tTG results from our doc today. he told me normal is less than .7 kassie was 18.7, and molly was 22.8. he couldn't remember tianna's, but he said it was in the same neighborhood has the other 2 girls. i asked about there being no damage in the biopsies, but he said that they probably do have damage. the damage can be spotty, and if you miss it you don't see it. their numbers indicate that there is damage.

Mt IgG was 11 units (negative)

My IgA was 34 units (Positive)

My Tissue Transglutaminase IgA was 99 units.

My biopsy indicated "sever partial to near total villous atrophy"

I am 51 years of age and was only diagnosed nearly 4 weeks ago. I suspect I have been suffering from Coeliac disease most of my life, certainly for the past 20 years. Doctor after doctor said it was IBS!! Now at last I have found that it wasn't all in the kind! I thought I was a hypochondriac! Apsrt from not feeling physically well and wasting money on unprofessional doctors, I have also spent years seeking help for depression and anxiety (again spending thousands of dollars seeking help). It will be interesting to see if the anxiety and depression lifts to some degree as I try to stick to the gluten-free diet.

Hi Caeli

I've had positive blood results and am waiting for the biopsy before going gluten-free. Just wanted to say though that what you said strikes a real chord with me - the whole being a hypochondriac bit and having depression and anxiety. here's to a healthy furture for us :D

Sorry for the previous blank reply...this is my first post!

My TTga was in the 290s when first tested a year ago. Anybody have results like that??

      By nanny marley · Posted

      Hi I've been told I need a MRI on my bowels , I was booked for a colonoscopy, but because of my sever back issues and trapped nerve it can't be done , the nurse told me I will have to have a manitol drink a hour before the scan , I'm just a bit worried has I have issues with sweeteners like even a little,  I get a weird throat and ears and I've read it is a similar substance , not sure if anyone has had one of these scans or could give me some advise on the drink prep thanks in advance 😄

      Celiac attack confusion and anxiety

      By Colleen H · Posted

      Hi all ! Can a celiac attack be so intense that it causes your entire body to work in reverse? Meaning really bad pain,  neuropathy and muscle,  jaw pain,  the stomach issues , Horrible anxiety and confusion??  I had a Tums and you would think I ate poison. My jaw and stomach did not like it . Not the norm for me. Things that are simple are just out of control. Anyone ever have this happen??  I'm trying to figure out what I ate or did to bring on a celiac like attack. I had an idea before but yesterday I didn't have any gluten unless it was in a medication ?! Any positive suggestions ??  Thank you

      Gluten free stuff

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      The following two lists are very helpful for anyone who is gluten sensitive and needs to avoid gluten when shopping. It's very important to learn to read labels and understand sources of hidden gluten, and to know some general information about product labelling--for example in the USA if wheat is a possible allergen it must be declared on a product's ingredient label like this: Allergens: Wheat.

      Gluten free stuff

      By trents · Posted

      Tammy, in the food industry, "gluten free" doesn't mean the same thing as "no gluten". As Scott explained, the FDA (Food and Drug Administration) allows food companies to use the "gluten-free" label as long as the product does not contain more than 20 ppm (parts per million) of gluten. This number is based on studies the FDA did years ago to determine the reaction threshold for those with celiac disease. And the 20 ppm figure works for the majority of celiacs. There are those who are more sensitive, however, who still react to that amount. There is another, stricter standard known as "Certified Gluten Free" which was developed by a third party organization known as GFCO which requires not more than 10 ppm of gluten. So, when you see "GFCO" or "Certified Gluten Free" labels on food items you know they are manufactured with a stricter standard concerning gluten content. Having said all that, even though you may read the disclaimer on a food item that says the spices may contain wheat, barley or rye (the gluten grains), you should be able to trust that the amount of gluten the spices may contain is so small it allows the total product to meet the requirements of gluten free or certified gluten free labeling. I hope this helps.
