Test Results Confusing


Calona

Hi, my name is Patricia and I'm new here.

I recently have gone gluten free in June, this was through my own research that I've discovered that gluten was making me sick. I have nerological problems. I had tests done before but because I didn't know what to ask for ( you assume the doctor knows what there doing) wrong assumtion!!!! anyway, came back normal so I was given Dicitel and was told that it was IBS, I continued eatting wheat and what ever and of course we all know the story so well. Well couple years later new doctor smarter patient, and I ask for test again. They run what I think are the right ones but again all come back NORMAL. When I asked for the test I asked that if I was following a gluten free diet wouldn't they kinda come back wrong, nope was the answer. Of course I knew that to be not true and ate gluten for a week and made myself so sick, to my dismay they came back Negative again. OK, who cares, I know that when I eat the stuff if makes me sick so just don't eat the stuff right. Well now my doctor thinks that all my symtoms are just me running aroung getting test and I'm making all this up, after all I've seen 3 neros and they all say that there nothing wrong with me. Whats up with that????? I've had 3 MRI for MS and maybe if I combine all the times a nero had spent with me it might add up to 1/2 hr. I've ask to see a GI guy but was told that its at least a years waiting. And since my test came back negative you don't need to see a GI guy anyways. ARRRRRGHH!!!!!! I'm still sick, I still have nero problems, and I would like to at least confirm what I already know, reason being is I have to adult boys who could in all likelyhood get sick when they come into there late 30s just like me. And would explain why my moms side of the family is all sick with bowell dieases and autoimmume stuff.

I didn't inttend for this to be long but one thing I did want to ask if any one could help. I noticed that the test run in the US are not like the ones we have in Canada, so again do I need to ask for different ones. This is what was on my test sheet.

IgE

F IgE 53 (<430) ug/L

Immunoglobulines

F IgG 10.10 (7.00-16.00) g/L

F IgA 1.46 (0.70-4.00) g/L

F Igm 1.37 (0.40-2.30) g/L

Anti Tissue Transglutaminase

F Tissue Transglutaminase IgA Antibody 11 (<20) Units

IgA antibody to tissue transglutaminase has approximately 95% sensitivity and specificity for gluten enteropathy. False negative results may occur with IgA deficiency or gluten-restricted diet.

I don't see a test for Gliadian or is that the IgG?

And what is the test tTt???? not sure about that But its the test they give celiacs to see if there getting gluten in there diet. Any help would really be appriciated. Thank-you Patricia :)

I can't help to really but wanted to say welcome and I'm sorry you've been through what most of us have. Tired of Doctors (member) on here is the best one to help you (many others can help too) as she has severe neuropathy due to gluten. Hopefully she'll be online and can give you some good advice soon. At least you know for sure, without question and forever more...............you need to be gluten free from now on. Good luck!

      But M&M's contain milk, and would not be at all like a Tootsie Roll.

      I appreciate you validating me because medical is an issue and it's not ok at all they they do this. Some days I just want to call the news media and just call out these doctors especially when they are supposed to be specialist Downplaying when gluten-free when they should know gluten-free is false negative. Now dealing with other issues and still crickets for disability because I show no signs of celiac BECAUSE IM GLUTENFREE! Actively dealing with sibo and skin issues.Depression is the key because thats all they know, im depressed because medical has caused it because of my celiac and related issues. I should have never ever been employed as a bus driver.After 3 years still healing and ZERO income desperately trying to get better but no careteam for celiac other than stay away frim wheat! Now im having care because my head is affected either ms or meningioma in go in tomorrow again for more scans.I know im slowly dying and im looking like a disability chaser

      M&M Peanuts. About the same calories and sugar while M&M Peanuts have fiber, potassium, iron and protein that Tootsie Rolls ("We are currently producing more than 50 million Tootsie Rolls each day.") don't. Click the links to compare nutritional values.  Both are made with sugar, not high fructose corn syrup.  I use them as a gluten free substitute for a peanut butter sandwich.  Try her on grass fed, pasture fed milk. While I get heartburn at night from commercial dairy milk, I do not from 'grassmilk'.

      I see it everyday on my feeds.  They go out and buy gluten-free processed products and wonder why they can't heal their guts.  I don't think they take it as a serious immune disease. They pick up things off the internet which is so far out in left field.  Some days I would just like to scream.  So much better when we had support groups and being able to teach them properly. I just had an EMA blood test because I haven't had one since my Doctor moved away.  Got test results today, doctor ordered a D3 vitamin test.  Now you know what  type of doctors we have.  Now I will have to pay for this test because she just tested my D3 end of December, and still have no idea about my EMA.
