Question about Gliadin IgA serum level


MissMollyMarie

Recommended Posts

MissMollyMarie Apprentice

I'm sorry to bother y'all again, but as I've been doing more research, I have never seen (or read) of anyone with a Gliadin IgA score of 182.6.  I believe the highest I've seen was a 27.  This score seems extremely high and has me a bit worried. Has anyone else had a score that high? Are there any other diseases/illnesses (besides celiac) that would cause such a high score?

Oh, and one more question...  Do you feel that IgA 299 (standard range 68-359 mg/dL) is on the high side?  Are there any other diseases/illnesses that could cause such a high score?

Any thoughts/input would be greatly appreciated.  Thank you for your help. 

IgA 299 (standard range 68-359 mg/dL)
Gliadin IgA 182.6 (standard range less than 19.9 CU)
Gliadin IgG 3.2 (standard range less than 19.9 CU)
Tissue Transglut IGA Less than 1.9 (standard range less than 19.9 CU)
Endomysial IgA Screen NEGATIVE

If anyone could share their input, that would be wonderful. ☺️

My deamidated gliadin peptide IgA was 143, with a normal range up to 19.  Not quite as high as yours, but still high. I’m not sure if this is exactly the same test as yours.  Gliadin IgA is an older test, but some labs write that when it is the deamidated gliadin peptide test. High numbers on celiac antibody tests don’t always correlate with severe intestinal damage, but likely do indicate celiac disease and not something else.

Your total IgA of 299 is fine, well within the normal range.

Thank you, RMJ!!!  I am such a worry wart and that makes me feel so much better!  It seems that the number is high, but not unheard of. I thought that 299 was high, but it is within the normal range, so I will try not to read more into it.  Thank you for responding. I truly appreciate it! 🙂

      Thanks for the kind words. It's hard to convince my doctor to investigate further because of a negative blood test and he only tested me for one marker. 🙃 I've come to the point where I need to take this into my own hands because the doctors are infuriating and it's not going anywhere. I've been gluten free for a week and feeling better but I was still consuming dairy and I think that's what's backing me up. Next week no dairy introduced.

      Hello mantooth nice to meet you it's so uncanny what you wrote you sound just like me even the back issues are exactly the same and I'm new here too trying to find out if I have the same had I too have been struggling to find answers with my docters I don't have a diagnosis but I've been struggling like forever and was told ibs and health aniexty was my problem but on researching I've come to the conclusion it's probably more because i cut gluten and lactose out for 6 months and  it was a incredible change for me so although I can't help with diagnosis I can say your not alone in trying  to find answers 😊

      Prolonged dehydration can cause kidney damage. How long has this been going on? Are you have diarrhea also? That's what the dyclomine is for I think.
