Wow, I am impressed how many on this forum are from Atlanta. I currently live in Canton but Im about to move to Kennesaw. I might have to check out some of these meeting as well.

I'm in dunwoody. And you know, it's really not that suprising it's it's really every 1 in 200.... What's suprising is that there aren't more.

I live in Canton too! What a small world we live in! I have not attended the support group meetings in Cobb or Gwinnett, maybe one day I will be able too. :)

I'm in Atlanta as well, near Lilburn and Lawrenceville (closer to Snellville) - but I go to school at Emory so I'm there most of the year.

I'd love to meet all of you and go to any meetings/dinners you know of :)

Such a small world! I graduated from Emory with my B.A. in psych. I received my M.A. from another university. Nice to meet you all!

I currently live southeast of Atlanta.

Anyone know of any good gluten-free restaurants around Emory?

      Abnormal Labs, Should I Be Concerned?

      By Ginger38 · Posted

      I also had high eosinophils which I’ve never had before either - could that be due to gluten consumption?

      You're welcome! Be sure the patient eats at least ten grams of gluten per day for a minimum of two weeks prior to repeating antibody testing.   Some people unconsciously reduce the amount of gluten in their diet because the feel unwell.  Three grams of gluten per day is sufficient to produce symptoms.  Only at ten grams or more is the immune system provoked to raise the antibody production high enough so that the antibodies leave the digestive tract and enter the blood stream where they can be measured.   Read the comments below the article...

      Thanks for your response and thoughts. Total IgA is normal. HLA DQ2/DQ8 came as heterozygous and the interpretation of the lab that the risk of coeliac disease is mild to moderate. Thyroid function test is normal. I agree that the best way is to repeat tTG antibodies in 6 months time as the result was not massively high.

      Welcome to the forum, @Wamedh Taj-Aldeen, How is the patient's thyroid?   You could check for thiamine deficiency which can cause the thyroid to either become hyper or hypo.  TTg IgA can be high in both hyperthyroidism and hypothyroidism.  tTg IgA can also be high if patient is taking medications to stimulate the thyroid as in hypothyroidism.   Thanks for visiting!  Keep us posted!
