"Patients with DQ2, half DQ2 and/or DQ8 are predisposed to celiac disease. A negative result essentially rules out celiac disease.    Celiac disease can present with gastrointestinal symptoms and/or widely variable non-gastrointestinal findings such as iron deficiency anemia, dermatitis herpetiformis, osteoporosis, chronic fatigue, short stature, neurologic symptoms, and many more. Gastrointestinal symptoms are present in fewer than 50% of cases of systematic celiac disease."   Celiac HLA DQ Association

What prompted you to get this test? Have you had other symptoms?  Blood tests or biopsy?

I had a weak positive of  

t-Transglutaminase (tTG)

A IgG °2

it was 7

Tissue Transglutaminase Antibodies (tTG-IgA) test will be positive in about 98% of patients with celiac disease who are on a gluten-containing diet. ... The same test will come back negative in about 95% of healthy people without celiac disease... The tTG test is the most sensitive test for celiac disease.

Doctor's opinion?

Do you perhaps have vitamin D plasma, homocystein, B12, folate test results that might indicate nutritional deficiencies and inflammation?

While this test is accurate, there are other autoimmune diseases that can give this response, Having other autoimmune diseases does not preclude Celiac Disease.

Your choice is get more complete testing done and a Celiac endoscopy biopsy done, or if you don't care about a medical diagnosis, start a strict gluten free diet and evaluate.  Malabsorption Syndrome is common in Celiac Disease so pay attention to your essential nutrient intake.  Your symptoms will help guide you to what you need to supplement. Low or deficient Vitamin D seems to be ubiquitous in all the autoimmune diseases so a good place to start.

      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.
