You should ask for a copy of the test results.

What it REALLY means, though, is Welcome to Gluten-Free Land!

You should send off for Nini's Newbie list if you haven't already:

You'll find lots of info here in the site index too, & of course you can ask us for help.

You can look forward to feeling healthy!

ok i have a copy.. none of it really makes sense to me buuut...

gliadin IgG Ab - 81.9 h reference range <45

gliadin IgA Ab - 11.5 reference range <45

endomysial IgA autoabs - <1:10 reference range < 1:10

everything else they ran came back normal.. except:

Differential EOS - 6H reference range 0-5 I have no idea what this means it has to do with blood count I think

Comprehensive metabolic panel:

glucose- 67L reference range 70-100

if anyone can make some sense of any of this.. I would greatly appreciate it

Eosinophil

White blood cell readily stained with eosin. Eosinophils, normally about 1-3% of the total white blood cell count, are believed to function in allergic responses and in resisting some infections.

You have antibodies to gliadin, so it's getting into your bloodstream (probably celiac).

Your IgA antibodies aren't positive, but you didn't give a total IgA number so you might be deficient.

Your Eos are a little off, but I don't think that's an issue. I think it varies a bit from person to person and over time.

Someone else will have to answer the glucose part, I don't know if it's significant or just a little off.
