Enterolab Results

Hi, I'm so excited, after a full year and some of problems with doctors, testing etc, I finally have my enterolab results and can say that all my symptoms haven't been only in my head!

Is anyone an expert on the enterolab testing and what the genetic results may mean. I've read all the information and am still a bit confused as to what I exactly have ie. gluten sensitivity and one celiac gene. Anyone willing to help me interpret?

This is it in a nutshell...

fecal antigliadin igA - 40 (normal <10)

fecal transglutaminase IgA 14 (normal <10)

HLA - DQB1 allele 1 (0201)

HLA- DQB1 allele 2 (0303)

serological equivalent: HLA-DQ 2,3 (subtype 2,9)

Thanks so much

Rachelle

Rachelle, I am so glad you finally know without a doubt what is wrong. Now you can get on with your (gluten-free) life. I am no expert with the genes, so will let others comment on those.

Let me take a shot at simplifying the gene info...

HLA - DQB1 allele 1 (0201) - This is HLA DQ 2, subtype 2 or more simply just "DQ2" which is a celiac gene.

HLA- DQB1 allele 2 (0303) - This is HLA DQ 3, subtype 9 or more simply just "DQ9" which is a gluten sensitive gene.

Hope that helps!

Thanks Jukie, now how is a person to know this? I've read through all the FAQ at enterolab and can't quite decifer the gene info. I'm a lab tech, it should make sense to me. Is there somewhere else I can go to find out more? The reason I ask is that a few months ago, I remember someone posting that they had the gene that coded for neurological symptoms (which I have HUGELY) . I should have wrote it down at the time but didn't. Now I want to find some supporting info for that to be my gene (Like I said, I want to make sure and prove to my family that it's not all literally in my head).

Thanks again,

Rachelle

Try googling your genes ... you can get lots of info that way.

Yeah, I Google your genes. I found a ton of interesting information, like one of them made me proof against narcolepsy. Good thing, I suppose. :P

      Oh yes I can understand the tiredness after going threw all that, must be exhausting especially on the mind I have high aniexty so I can understand that , I wish there more easier ways for people to get help , I had a MRI on my spine some years ago without anything it was really quick and no prep , I understand the need for  them to see better with the bowel ,but you think they would use something a little less traumatic  for ibd sufferers on the bowels by now ,I hope your feeling better today 🙏

      Celiac attack confusion and anxiety

      By Colleen H · Posted

      The previous post did not come through right. I wonder if tingling burning feet are part of it.. I'm not sure if it's the med reaction that people with gluten intolerance get or the food we ate  It's frustrating because a person who did not want to admit to himself I had this condition wanted me to eat this chicken sandwich and now I'm stuck with a variety of symptoms plus now I'm hungry on top of it..  I'm new to this so I forget that "one bite" of the wrong thing can hurt us.😔. Do we stop eating if someone exposed us to gluten ??  My stomach is rumbling but my joints hurt ...  It's weird because I can feel the anxiety coming on.  I get joint problems ,  I don't know if anyone ever got hot flashes?? I suppose if it affects people head to toes you can get that too.   It's weird...hard to decipher what is what.   Also how long do I have to deal with this attack??  Makes me feel like not getting up out of bed.  I get too many symptoms which  horrible.  Thank you for your response..

      still struggling with cravings

      By wellthatsfun · Posted

      as my last post stated, i was diagnosed via endoscopy on the 14th of june. i have been eating amazing home cooked meals, luckily, mainly cooked by my boyfriend who is extremely careful about contamination (and is an incredible cook at that). however, i find myself in a mental rut still. being 18, this is the time in my life where i should be exploring things, going out, having fun. yet every corner i turn i'm tortured by the amazing smell of something i can't have anymore. the wonderful sight of such yummy foods. it's near torture. if my boyfriend and his friend who lives with us buy something i can't have, they'll usually eat it outside of the house or the car or wherever we are - which is greatly appreciated - but even seeing a burger or chips or a sausage roll in their hands guts me almost beyond repair. i just wanna have it again too. i miss it. i feel left out and it makes me very sad all the time. it's not their fault. they are allowed to eat whatever they want to, whatever their intestines will allow. it just stings, bad. and i feel so ungrateful given i basically have a private chef who is doubly the love of my life. but it's just so hard. i know i'll adapt. i haven't given up hope.i just wanted to vent. thank you for reading

      Thank you. I must have misinterpreted a study or something. Thank you for the clarification. Much appreciated. Almost three years into my celiac diagnosis and I'm still learning new things.
