Wow...

Well YAY and HAPPY DANCE to the healing, and

*sniffle* to the getting rid of Yeast and soy. (I'm still mourning the soy myself...)

I'm thrilled for you that your intestines appear to be getting better. Now imagine how much better they'll be soy and yeast free. :)

(All I can say is Enjoy Life chocolate chips. Those suckers are saving my life... ;) )

Matilda,

How exciting for you! Have you noticed a weight gain now that you are absorbing better?

Funny that you posted this today...I was wondering about it and was gonna pm you to see if you'd gotten the resuklts.

Bummer about the yeast and soy though. :(

I was neg. for everything but gluten....when I tested for yeast and egg they didnt have soy or I would've ordered that one too. Did they just recently start testing soy? :unsure:

Anyways, I cant have yeast or eggs anyway but its definately not IgA. The eggs is a sulfur thing....dont know about yeast...I just dont eat it.

I wonder what my malabsorption score would say now....I've gained 15 lbs. back since my first test. I'm also maintaining my weight instead of going back and forth like I used to. My first score was 912...I'm betting if I tested today it would be in the normal range or close to it. :)

I dont think in my case I've healed though. I think I just learned which foods to avoid because my body cant process them for whatever reason....stopping all supplements also helped tremdously....thats actually when I really started to gain some weight.

If I had the money I would experiment. Do a test now that I'm not losing weight and having normal stools...then eat some of the foods I dont do well with (avocado, yams, oils, eggs, etc) for a week or two. If I did this I would lose weight and have loose stools. I wonder if there would be a significant change in the results?? :huh:

If I didnt have a gazzillion other things to pay for right now I'd do it....for the sake of scientifness and to end my own curiosity. :rolleyes:

Congrats and keep up the good work! :D

      CT with contrast.

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      They may want to also eliminate other possible causes for your symptoms/issues and are doing additional tests.  Here is info about blood tests for celiac disease--if positive an endoscopy where biopsies of your intestinal villi are taken to confirm is the typical follow up.

      New labs are now very elevated

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      In the Europe the new protocol for making a celiac disease diagnosis in children is if their tTg-IgA (tissue transglutaminase IgA) levels are 10 times or above the positive level for celiac disease--and you are above that level. According to the latest research, if the blood test results are at certain high levels that range between 5-10 times the reference range for a positive celiac disease diagnosis, it may not be necessary to confirm the results using an endoscopy/biopsy: Blood Test Alone Can Diagnose Celiac Disease in Most Children and Adults TGA-IgA at or Above Five Times Normal Limit in Kids Indicates Celiac Disease in Nearly All Cases No More Biopsies to Diagnose Celiac Disease in Children! May I ask why you've had so many past tTg-IgA tests done, and many of them seem to have been done 3 times during short time intervals?

      Chances of being coeliac

      By trents · Posted

      @JettaGirl, "Coeliac" is the British spelling of "celiac". Same disease.

      Chances of being coeliac

      By JettaGirl · Posted

      This may sound ridiculous but is this supposed to say Celiacs? I looked up Coeliacs because you never know, there’s a lot of diseases related to a disease that they come up with similar names for. It’s probably meant to say Celiacs but I just wanted to confirm.

      I was told it was to see how much damage has been caused. But just told CT with contrast not any other name for it.
