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.

      Interesting, when I suffered for a few months with ectopics I noticed that carbohydrates would cause indigestion and bloating in my stomach, then that would lead to my heart skipping beats, and I could feel it in my throat, it was very unsettling.  My last serious bout of this was after eating a Muller Rice Pudding for breakfast.   I happened to be wearing a 48 hour halter at the time and cardiology picked it up, but they weren't worried about what they saw. There was some British doctor who'd made some videos on the Vagus nerve that I remember watching at the time which made sense of what I was experiencing, there did seem to be some sort of connection.

      I asked my cardiologist about stopping vitamins.  He said his tests account for all detectable vitamins from sources other than food.  I only need to stop them for a couple of days.  He has me keep records of meds and vitamins I've ingested over the past 10 days and prior and he does his calculations.

      Reply to treats I try and eat to bring up the glucose. Sometime I get up 3 times a night and eat something. I don't think food is the issue. A lot of the food they say should help doesn't.  Many mornings my level is 59 and I feel sick, sometimes for hours. It has been recommended I go to an Endocrinologist.
