Help! Is this true - No gluten and No grains for celiacs? I am currently receiving IVIG infusions and the infusion medication has corn sugar listed! Is this a Celiac concern?

Shouldn't be. The problem is the proteins in grains, not the sugars. Although, some people have things like fructose (a sugar) intolerance.

There are many grains that are gluten-free which people with celiac disease can safely consume, including corn (as long is it is not cross contaminated). 

This article has some detailed information on how to be 100% gluten-free, so it may be helpful (be sure to also read the comments section.):

      With regard to the Iga 106, is there a reference range given for that one?

      That's how I took it but I was confused because in your previous post you said of your biopsy, "and mine very much showed damage".  In the celiac antibody panel that was ordered, was there a test for total IGA included, aka, "Immunoglobulin A (IgA)"? This one checks for IGA deficiency. IGA deficiency can result in false negatives for the IGA celiac antibody tests such as the TTG-IGA and the DGP-IGA.

      The biopsy results were what said indicative of "weak or partially treated celiac disease".
