Igg And Tissue Transglutemaninase Levels


sillyyak

Recommended Posts

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.

My tTG was over 10 and the normal was below 4

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??

      Welcome to the celiac.com communiuty, @Matthias! Yes, we have been aware that this can be an issue with mushrooms but as long as they are rinsed thoroughly it should not be a problem since the mushrooms don't actually incorporate the gluten into their cellular structure. For the same reason, one needs to be careful when buying aged cheeses and products containing yeast because of the fact that they are sometimes cultured on gluten-containing substrate.

      The one kind of food I had been buying and eating without any worry for hidden gluten were unprocessed veggies. Well, yesterday I discovered yet another pitfall: cultivated mushrooms. I tried some new ones, Shimeji to be precise (used in many asian soup and rice dishes). Later, at home, I was taking a closer look at the product: the mushrooms were growing from a visible layer of shredded cereals that had not been removed. After a quick web research I learned that these mushrooms are commonly cultivated on a cereal-based medium like wheat bran. I hope that info his helpful to someone.

      I might suggest you consider buckwheat groats. https://www.amazon.com/Anthonys-Organic-Hulled-Buckwheat-Groats/dp/B0D15QDVW7/ref=sr_1_4_pp?crid=GOFG11A8ZUMU&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.bk-hCrXgLpHqKS8QJnfKJLKbKzm2BS9tIFv3P9HjJ5swL1-02C3V819UZ845_kAwnxTUM8Qa69hKl0DfHAucO827k_rh7ZclIOPtAA9KjvEEYtaeUV06FJQyCoi5dwcfXRt8dx3cJ6ctEn2VIPaaFd0nOye2TkASgSRtdtKgvXEEXknFVYURBjXen1Nc7EtAlJyJbU8EhB89ElCGFPRavEQkTFHv9V2Zh1EMAPRno7UajBpLCQ-1JfC5jKUyzfgsf7jN5L6yfZSgjhnwEbg6KKwWrKeghga8W_CAhEEw9N0.eDBrhYWsjgEFud6ZE03iun0-AEaGfNS1q4ILLjZz7Fs&dib_tag=se&keywords=buckwheat%2Bgroats&qid=1769980587&s=grocery&sprefix=buchwheat%2Bgroats%2Cgrocery%2C249&sr=1-4&th=1 Takes about 10 minutes to cook. Incidentally, I don't like quinoa either. Reminds me and smells to me like wet grass seed. When its not washed before cooking it makes me ill because of saponins in the seed coat. Yes, it can be difficult to get much dietary calcium without dairy. But in many cases, it's not the amount of calcium in the diet that is the problem but the poor uptake of it. And too much calcium supplementation can interfere with the absorption of vitamins and minerals in general because it raises gut pH.

      What you’re describing really does not read like typical IBS-D. The dramatic, rapid normalization of stool frequency and form after removing wheat, along with improved tolerance of legumes and plant foods, is a classic pattern seen in gluten-driven disease rather than functional IBS. IBS usually worsens with fiber and beans, not improves. The fact that you carry HLA-DQ2.2 means celiac disease is absolutely possible, even if it’s less common than DQ2.5, and many people with DQ2.2 present later and are under-diagnosed. Your hesitation to reintroduce gluten is completely understandable — quality of life matters — and many people in your position choose to remain strictly gluten-free and treat it as medically necessary even without formal biopsy confirmation. If and when you’re ready, a physician can help you weigh options like limited gluten challenge, serology history, or documentation as “probable celiac.” What’s clear is that this wasn’t just random IBS — you identified the trigger, and your body has been very consistent in its response.
