Do I have celiac or am I gluten intolerant, or what am I?

What does is mean to have a weak positive result for t-Transglutaminase IgG (actual result is 6U/ml)? Do I need to stay away from gluten? I'm bloated, gassy and have androgenic hairless and Hashimotos.

Here are my results:

Deamidated Gliadin Ab, IgA my value: 5 standard range: 0 - 19

Deamidated Gliadin Abs, IgG my value: 4 standard range: 0 - 19

t-Transglutaminase (tTG) IgA my value:<2 U/mL0 - 3 U/mL

t-Transglutaminase IgG my value:6 U/mL0 - 5 U/mLH

ENDOMYSIAL ANTIBODY IgA my value: Negative

IgA, Serum my value: 154 mg/dL standard range: 87 - 352 mg/dL

Antigliadin Abs, IgA my value: Not applicable

Antigliadin Abs, IgG my value: Not applicable

I don't see that you have any positives at all in the data you listed. The key one is the tTG-IGA and your value is 2 whereas the reference range goes all the way up to 19.

Welcome to the forum!

If I am reading your results correctly, it looks like you have one positive test for celiac disease:

  • t-Transglutaminase IgG my value: 6 - U/mL 0 - 5 U/mL  - H

It's a bit less specific than the tTG IgA, but still a positive test. At this point your doctor may want to schedule an endoscopy to confirm a celiac disease diagnosis. Here is more about blood tests:

Yes, thanks for catching that, Scott. That one is positive. The formatting sometimes makes it difficult to spot those.

Be sure to keep eating gluten daily until all celiac tests are finished.

      Welcome to the forum, @yellowstone! The most common ones seem to be dairy (casein), oats, eggs, soy and corn. "Formed" meat products (because of the "meat glue" used to hold their shape) is a problem for some. But it can be almost anything on an individual basis as your sensitivity to rice proves, since rice is uncommonly a "cross reactor" for celiacs. Some celiacs seem to not do well with any cereal grains.

      What foods can trigger a response in people with gluten sensitivity? I've read that there are foods that, although they don't contain gluten, can cause problems for people with gluten sensitivity because they contain proteins similar to gluten that trigger a response in the body. I've seen that other cereals are included: corn, rice... also chicken, casein. I would like to know what other foods can cause this reaction, and if you have more information on the subject, I would like to know about it. Right now, I react very badly to rice and corn. Thank you.

      Thank you for the links to the articles.  Interesting reading. I'll be telling my brother in law because he has a lot of pain
