Hello,

I was just looking for some help interpreting my blood results. My celiac panel had a note from the lab that states “no serological evidence found of celiac”. But my IgA was high 378 with a rang of 47-310. Can this mean celiac? I was told yea but I’m not sure. 

Any input is greatly appreciated!

Is that your tTg-IgA result? Or just the IgA? Usually celiac panels do an IgA test to see if you're deficient in IgA. If you are deficient in IgA, the tissue transglutaminase tests might give you a false negative and other blood tests may be required.

What were your other test results?

Thanks for the reply!

so the celiac panel when i look at the results are: 

The one mentioned above which is high but then I also have tTg which is in range with <1 with a range of <15 and states “antibody not detected”

please let me know if I’m missing anything!

 So when i look at the tests this is all that was tested it does say celiac panel. 

It says “celiac disease comp panel w/Gliadin AB (IGG) 

“No serological evidence for celiac is present. tTg may normalize in individuals with celiac disease”

Tissue Transglutaminase AB, IGA: normal <1 range of <15. Antibody not detected

Immunoglobin A: Hight 378 range 47-310

thats all i see under celiac panel testing, there were other tests but not part of celiac

I would suggest the complete Celiac Disease panel. 

https://celiac.org/about-celiac-disease/screening-and-diagnosis/screening/

Anemia and Diabetes can cause false negatives, so can having Dermatitis Herpetiformis.  I'm a big fan of genetic testing.

      The Happy Tart review

      When my wife attempted to open the online card in the store with a cashier, it would not work. We then showed the owner the link to the card, the online receipt that I got upon purchase, and even my bank statement confirming the purchase. That did not satisfy her, since she said she needed the link to open to reveal the gift ID num. They even admitted they...

      Was the card itself lost or just the record or both?

      The Happy Tart review

      We were flabergasted that the owner would not acknowledge a $50 e-gift card I purchased for my celiac wife. My wife tried to open it in the store and was informed there had been a system change and they could not find the record. No worries, she was told, just talk to management. Six months later, and numerous absurd back and forths, and the owner literally...

      Ibuprofen

      Yes, some people do get withdrawal from gluten but gluten withdrawal doesn't usually cause gut pain. Maybe more like general body aches and discomfort. We have articles on gluten withdrawal on this forum. You might do a search for them. Applesauce is very acidic and some brands have added vitamin C (ascorbic acid) which makes them more acidic. This can...

      Ibuprofen

      Do you or anyone know alot about ibuprofen I wasn't sure if I was eating too much apple sauce. Something is making my pain so much worse I'm referring to the intense pins and needles in my feet and lower legs. Jaw actually has tardive dystonia and muscle spasms throughout my back Almost like an opposite effect that a pain reliever...

Six months later, and numerous absurd back and forths, and the owner literally informs me there have been "bad actors", so she can't make good on this lost gift card. In other words, she accused me of lying and committing fraud... over $50! Please be careful with your orders and purchases here.

      Yes, some people do get withdrawal from gluten but gluten withdrawal doesn't usually cause gut pain. Maybe more like general body aches and discomfort. We have articles on gluten withdrawal on this forum. You might do a search for them. Applesauce is very acidic and some brands have added vitamin C (ascorbic acid) which makes them more acidic. This can damage the stomach lining if you eat it too often. Especially if your stomach lining is already compromised. Ibuprofen inhibits the body's ability to rebuild the stomach's protective mucosal lining. That's why it can cause peptic ulcers. As strange as it may sound, low level irritation/inflammation stimulates the body to rebuild the stomach lining. There are two steps in this rebuilding process known as COX 1 and COX 2. Ibuprofen represses both COX 1 and COX 2. Celecoxcib, a prescription anti inflammatory, inhibits only COX 2, making it less likely to cause damage to the gut lining.

      Do you or anyone know alot about ibuprofen  I wasn't sure if I was eating too much apple sauce.   Something is making my pain so much worse  I'm referring to the intense pins and needles in my feet and lower legs.  Jaw actually has tardive dystonia and muscle spasms throughout my back Almost like an opposite effect that a pain reliever would do. I'm fairly new to this. Whatever is going on seems to be worsening  Do people get a withdrawal effect from gluten?  It's extremely painful 😖  I'll post that question or research on the site  Thank you everyone for responding
