Antibody Food Test question?

[DemonKnight]

So I've heard some stories on these forums that tests exist that are similar to the TTG antibody test for gluten, but they do that with other kinds of foods? Are there places in particular that do these kinds of tests and are they actually credible? I've heard some other stories about functional doctors as well. Do they do more comprehensive testing than I would get in my regular hospital? 

I'm kind of not satisfied with my health and doctors at the moment. I was a little frank with them the other day in how much of a slow process everything has been and I most likely want to start getting second opinions for treatment. I'm 10 months into a gluten free diet, but still can't seem to Zero out my TTG levels. They were 110, 56, 39, 23, and the most recent one was 26. My body in particular was never feeling good, but there was at least some comfort in that the levels were dropping, but now I'm pretty sure the most recent test was just proof that I can't seem to find/eliminate all the culprits from my diet which may be setting things off. It's at this point I'm just tired now though. I've already lost 30 pounds from 163 to 133 and still dropping. 

I did take the advice of some people in here and eliminated dairy and gluten free oats all together. I decided to do that when that 26 number came in. I also recently decided that I'm going to just start gutting out anything that's processed, including a lot of the gluten free breads I eat. There are just too many ingredients. 

But I'm just curious if anyone knows about these other testing options and if anyone can speak highly of them. I think I'm at a point, where I know I need to gut everything from now on in my diet. I don't know what the hell is going on, but I guess the GI doctor was right during this 10 months when he said those numbers should have zeroed out by now. FYI, my bowel movements did significantly get better after elminating dairy, and it seems that might have been playing a important role in the constipation symptoms. I'm eyeing Soy very closely as well.

I'm currently testing out the ALCAT diet after receiving test results. Note that they are a sponsor here, and I'm in the process of doing a non-paid article on my experience with this (the only payment for my article was free testing):

The ALCAT test analyzes the white blood cell (leukocytes) responses to various foods, additives, etc.

Thanks Scott. I saved that link and am going to look into it.

This is the other one that I stumbled across in another thread.

Just curious Scott, did the results show you anything that you were previously unaware of before? 

[Scott Adams]

Yes, they definitely showed me things that I apparently react highly to that I had no idea affected me, as well as some things that I already knew I had issues with.

Thank you Scott. This is insightful then and I will definitely consider this site or similar ones then if I can't get my levels normalized soon.

Thank you, I'm going to give this a read right now.
