Igg Positive For Gluten But Question

I had an Elisa test done several months ago and the positives are represented by "class" numbers 1-4. There is a number before them: pg/ml where <1.00 is negative and the 4 is >30.00 Is anybody familiar with this Elisa test?

Ok, most of my positives are a 1 or 2. I have one 3 that is egg. I have a 1 for gluten so I am understaning that I have issues with gluten but they aren't terrible right?

I have searched the web looking for anybody else with this same test and I just can't find anybody who's had this same test! I have nobody to talk to about any of my results (non-doctor).

So, I went gluten free over 2 months ago and alot of my ailments have disappeared: chronic fatigue, anxiety/panic attacks, depression. I know when I have eaten gluten because I get panic attacks at night when I am sleeping but the problem I had last night was, I had panic attacks again until 2am. I was super careful yesterday. What gives???? I am so frustrated!

Hi and welcome. :)

Sorry, I can't help you with the test but I have seen it mentioned here and I am sure someone will be along who can help you.

I am glad to hear that so many issues are improving for you on a gluten free diet. :)

I don't know what could have caused your panic attack last night since you were being so careful. ;) Is there any chance there was cross contamination?

This is a great resource, feel free to ask anything.

.

It's possible I suppose. I know I am rather naive with these questions as this is rather new to me but with such a low positive for gluten, would I get that much of a reaction? I didn't expect it, if I had accidentally eaten gluten.

Again, I'm not very helpful as I don't know what the numbers mean.

But I thought I would at least bump this thread up again. :)

Are you keeping a food journal? Many of us have found it very helpful in tracking our reactions.

Not right now but I have played with the idea but I am thinking that my memory isn't as good as I thought it would be.

All the more reason to. :)

I realized that for more information on the Elisa you could use the search function at the top of the page. Just type in Elisa and you'll see the check for this forum only, hit go and lots of responses come up. :)

      Osteoporosis: Does the body start rebuilding bones after starting a gluten-free diet?

      Forgive me if this has already been discussed. I couldn’t find another discussion about it. I was diagnosed with osteoporosis a couple of years ago after having been asymptomatic for celiac for decades. I ignored the celiac diagnosis because I had no issues, but I was ignorant to the long term damage. I am still asymptomatic, but after years of eating g...

      Severe severe mouth pain

      So sorry for going off topic. I have had gerd for about 25 years. I used to take 40 mg in the morning and 40 at night . My current GP has me down to 20 mg twice a day. I don’t have any issues on this dosage. Hope this helps. Best of luck to you!

      Okay, I got lost in the weeds here in this protracted thread. What are you taking omeprazole for? Your original thread had to do with dental, gum and thrush issues. Normally, a PPI is prescribed for people with GERD (acid reflux). How long have you been on omeprazole?

      Osteoporosis: Does the body start rebuilding bones after starting a gluten-free diet?

      By Bogger · Posted

      Forgive me if this has already been discussed. I couldn’t find another discussion about it. I was diagnosed with osteoporosis a couple of years ago after having been asymptomatic for celiac for decades. I ignored the celiac diagnosis because I had no issues, but I was ignorant to the long term damage. I am still asymptomatic, but after years of eating gluten I am now strictly gluten free. The osteoporosis has been improving after taking Fosamax the last couple of years. My question is…..has my body returned to normal bone production on its own now that it is not influenced by gluten? A new problem has surfaced. I have to stop taking Fosamax due to a vascular issue which requires me to take a daily aspirin. The aspirin mixed with Fosamax will increase the chance of internal bleeding and ulcers so I need to turn to Reclast, which I’m trying to avoid. I’m turning to you all to see if anyone knows if there is a chance that my body is back to normal bone production since it is not exposed to gluten. I’m going to ask my doctor if I can stop the Fosamax and take the aspirin until my bone scan next year. Any help is greatly appreciated!
