Welcome to the forum, nataliepike!

Looks like you had two celiac antibody tests run, the tTG-IGA  and the DGP-IGA, that are used to check for or diagnose celiac disease. Both were negative. The other measurement that was taken was of total serum IGA which, if it is lower than normal, can create false negatives in the other tests. The total serum IGA was not low so what they are saying in the note is that they can have confidence that the two other antibody tests not being false negatives.

So, the tests that have been run so far do not indicate celiac disease but do not rule out NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity). There is no test for NCGS. Celiac disease must first be ruled out. The two share many of the same symptoms and NCGS is 10x more common than celiac disease.

As @trents mentioned your blood tests are negative, and if you originally got those tests done because you have symptoms when eating gluten then your next step would probably be a gluten-free diet for a while to see if that helps with your symptoms, but this would be your choice, since you don't seem to have celiac disease.

      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.
