Enterolab Results

If any of you out there have had stool tests done by Enterolab, about how long did you have to wait for your results? I know they say that if you don't hear within three weeks to contact them, but I am wondering if it takes them the better part of three weeks to e-mail you the results?Or did you get the results sooner??? I am just looking for your experience with Enterolab so I know what to expect.

Anybody?

Hi,

I was just diagnosed about 3 months ago. It took enterolab exactly two weeks for diagnosis. Both my wife and mother-in-law also used them and got them exactly two weeks.

Same here - just over 2 weeks. I understand that impatient feeling. Good luck!

2 weeks for both myself and daughter. I probably checked my email ten times a day that whole 2 weeks, just in case they were early. So I understand. :)

Almost 3 weeks to the day. It was a practice in patience.

I actually had to wait 5 weeks b/c there was a malfunction in one of their refrigeration units due to a large storm that passed by -- so I had to resubmit my sample. They were really nice about it though and when I explained I needed the results before my GI appointment, they made sure I got them in time. After my resubmittal -- I think it was just over 2 weeks.

Good luck -- I know it sucks waiting, but it is worth it! :)

I hadn't gotten the results for 3 weeks so I called and they said they didn't have my email on file, and my results had been ready a week before. Right at 2 weeks. But if you haven't gotten them, try logging into your account on their website.

      Cristiana, that sounds like a great approach and I will be looking forward to the results. I am in the same boat as you. I don't experience overt symptoms with minor, cross contamination level exposures so I sometimes will indulge in those "processed on equipment that also processes wheat . . ." or items that don't specifically claim to be gluten free but do not list gluten containing grains in their ingredient list. But I always wonder if I am still experiencing sub acute inflammatory reactions. I haven't had any celiac antibody blood work done since my diagnosis almost 25 years ago so I don't really have any data to go by.

      I've been reflecting on this further. The lowest TTG I've ever managed was 4.5 (normal lab reading under 10).  Since then it has gone up to 10.   I am not happy with that.  I can only explain this by the fact that I am eating out more these days and that's where I'm being 'glutened', but such small amounts that I only occasionally react. I know some of it is also to do with eating products labelled 'may contain gluten' by mistake - which in the UK means it probably does! It stands to reason that as I am a coeliac any trace of gluten will cause a response in the gut.  My villi are healed and look healthy, but those lymphocytes are present because of the occasional trace amounts of gluten sneaking into my diet.   I am going to try not to eat out now until my next blood test in the autumn and read labels properly to avoid the may contain gluten products, and will then report back to see if it has helped!

      Hi, I posted before about my son's legs shaking after gluten. I did end up starting him on vit b and happily he actually started sleeping better and longer.  Back to my 4 year old. She had gone back to meltdowns, early wakes, and exhaustion. We tested everything again and her ferritin was lowish again (16) and vit d was low. After a couple weeks on supplements she is cheerful, sleeping better and looks better. The red rimmed eyes and dark circles are much better.   AND her Ttg was a 3!!!!!! So, we are crushing the gluten-free diet which is great. But WHY are her iron and vit d low if she's not getting any gluten????  She's on 30mg of iron per day and also a multivitamin and vit d supplement (per her dr). That helped her feel better quickly. But will she need supplements her whole life?? Or is there some other reason she's not absorbing iron? We eat very healthy with minimal processed food. Beef maybe 1x per week but plenty of other protein including eggs daily.  She also says her tummy hurts every single morning. That was before the iron (do not likely a side effect). Is that common with celiac?

      Celiac disease is the most likely cause, but here are articles about the other possible causes:
