These are the tests the VA is doing?

Endomysial AB, IgA

Immunoglobulin A, QN

Tissue Transglutaminase IgA

Anti-Gliadin Profile

If the Endomysial test comes back negative does that negate the positive biopsy?

Since I can't edit 30 seconds after posting...the biopsy was a skin biopsy for Dermatitis Herpetiformis.

Since your biology is positive,  you need NO further testing! Commence gluten free.  From reading other of your posts, also low tyramine,  which is no fun either!  If you need help, try migraine sites.

Thanks...I was hoping a healed stomach could process the tyramine better.

Look into microbiome. Tyramine can be produced to excess in the small intestine if the bacteria is not balanced properly.

I've been trying since 2006 to fix my microbiome.  I knew something was off.  I was dx'd with SIBO by endoscopy.  But now that I know I have celiac, that explains why I never could get better, no matter what I did even water fasting which did help briefly but then I'd eat wheat again.

      Most recent gluten challenge guidelines call for the consumption of at least 10g of gluten (about the amount in about 4-6 slices of wheat-based bread) for at least 2 weeks.  When celiacs have been on gluten free diets for long periods of time, they often find that when they consume a good amount of gluten, they react much more strongly than they did before going gluten free. They have lost all tolerance to the poison they had when consuming wheat products regularly. That is certainly the case with me. A couple of years ago I accidentally consumed a wheat biscuit my wife had made thinking it was a gluten free one and it made me violently ill. So, I mention that as I don't know if your son has started the gluten challenge yet.

      Will definitely keep you posted. We live in Japan and will fly to Australia for the endoscopy end of April so until then, for the next ten weeks, we will just start adding gluten daily. 2 slices of white bread a day is what the guidelines seem to say.    But I welcome advice from members here who have done successful gluten challenges. I know they are not always successful.    I have also read I should monitor his growth. Is that really a concern for 10 weeks of gluten consumption? He is growing and has always followed his curve but he’s no basketball player at 20-25th centile.

      @melthebell, keep us posted. We are learning more and more about gluten disorders as time goes on. One of the things that has become apparent to me is that gluten disorders don't always like to fit into the neat little pigeon hole symptomatic and diagnostic paradigms we have created for them. There seems to be a lot more atypical stuff going on than we once realized.
