Hi Steve.

I agree this is best site. All the help and support I've received from everyone. Going gluten-free is very stressful, but here we can find a refuge, and a support not found anywhere else.

Glad you are here.

What a nice thing to say, Steve :)

Thank you for sticking around and being a part of it--and I agree that this is the very best when it comes to all things Celiac!

I completely agree. We are so lucky to have this resource. I have learned nearly everything that I know about celiac disease here! Everyone has been so great. I know that we would not be in the the same place in our gluten free life without the help of you wonderful people. Through this forum I have learned about diagnosis, cross contamination, cooking, the diet and more. When my son was first diagnosed I thought we would be eating rice cakes and grilled chicken breasts, but you all have shown me that great food does not end with diagnosis and for us it was only the beginning of a healthy life for my son.

Thank you everyone. :)

      Abnormal Labs, Should I Be Concerned?

      By Ginger38 · Posted

      I also had high eosinophils which I’ve never had before either - could that be due to gluten consumption?

      You're welcome! Be sure the patient eats at least ten grams of gluten per day for a minimum of two weeks prior to repeating antibody testing.   Some people unconsciously reduce the amount of gluten in their diet because the feel unwell.  Three grams of gluten per day is sufficient to produce symptoms.  Only at ten grams or more is the immune system provoked to raise the antibody production high enough so that the antibodies leave the digestive tract and enter the blood stream where they can be measured.   Read the comments below the article...

      Thanks for your response and thoughts. Total IgA is normal. HLA DQ2/DQ8 came as heterozygous and the interpretation of the lab that the risk of coeliac disease is mild to moderate. Thyroid function test is normal. I agree that the best way is to repeat tTG antibodies in 6 months time as the result was not massively high.

      Welcome to the forum, @Wamedh Taj-Aldeen, How is the patient's thyroid?   You could check for thiamine deficiency which can cause the thyroid to either become hyper or hypo.  TTg IgA can be high in both hyperthyroidism and hypothyroidism.  tTg IgA can also be high if patient is taking medications to stimulate the thyroid as in hypothyroidism.   Thanks for visiting!  Keep us posted!
