Need help with results!

[Cal4802]

Hi everyone, 

I had my TTG IGG test done recently by Quest Diagnostics and it came back as "10" (6 and higher is positive)... My TTG IGA test only came back as a "1" ( 4 and higher is positive)... First question, is 10 considered pretty high/noteworthy on the IGG or kinda not really? 

--They also tested for Gliadin (deamidated) IGA and it came back "5".  Gliadin (deamidated) IGG came back as "2". For both 20 or higher is considered positive. Whatever all that is. 

The Dr. was basically like, this means you're really allergic to gluten (the high IGG score) and should just act like you have celiacs, which you (likely) don't.. 

I'm reading a lot though about positive IGG scores and negative IGA scores and not so reassured. Curious if any gurus can interpret my results better than I can. She didn't ever suggest an endoscopy etc just said cut out gluten. 

Thanks, Cal

Sorry it took so long for someone to reply. In this case, your doctor is correct and you should follow their advice and cut gluten out. At the very least you are probably gluten sensitive, and continuing to eat it will likely cause more issues down the road.
