Here are the names and results of the test. What I found interesting about this is when I asked for the copy the mood changed a little. My daughters pulmonologist is wonderful but i also thisnk that she didnt quite understand thae results either. She did tell me that she questions the hight IgG# and wasnt given a very good answer except "this child does not have celiac disease" Ive never met the poor guy and i dont like his attitude.

Here they are and the lab that did the test was Labcorp ( I was surprised)

AntiGliadin IgA 1 U/mL *

AntiGliadin IgG 26 U/ mL*H

Anti-Reticulin IgA Negative titer*

Anti-Reticulin IgG Negative titer*

tTG IgA 1U/ mL*

tTG IgA 1U/ mL*

EndomyAb IgA Negative

ImmunoA, Quant 79mg/dL*

Those are it I hope somebody can help me a lil to understand what is high. I will say that my pulmonologist was very adomint about begining the diet, she really seemed eager. I think she is still leaning toward the g-tube on sept 10. So I plan on starting immediatly.

Thank you all so much for you support and help!

Do you have the ranges that the lab provided? Each lab has a slightly different normal range, and without seeing them I can't help you.

I looked up the lab and the IgG is out of the reference range. This means welcome to the club!

The positive IgG could indicate a wheat intolerance/allergy, and not Celiac.

from the FAQ on www.celiaccenter.org (Dr. Fasano is one of the leading Celiac pediatric physicians and researchers)

There is a particular series of blood tests called the

I wish I did have the ranges but that was my thoughts exactly... the fact that she is 8 years old and has CF ( meaning she has had so many test run and this is the first time that a test of any kind has come back out of the range) tells me that even a little out of range is a problem. Her sweat test for Cystic Fibrosis was not a super high number but she has progression of the disease in a rapid way. I work very hard to make sure she is getting the vitamins, fat, calories that she needs and she gets sicker and sicker that tells me that something else is wrong .Apparently to some doctors it means more meds needed well Im sick of hearing that crap and I am standing my ground. We will begin the diet and My heart tells me that she can and will get better! I will refuse to let them put that tube in untill she has been on this diet for at 3 months. And maybe longer. I really appreciate you guys!

Chriss, Please start out also dairy free & soy free... Please read up on dairy if you need to, but no one needs dairy, especially anyone that has an auto immune illness...

Stick to it & I bet you are going to see some great results, please keep us posted.

Oh & please please try to just feed whole foods & not get the gluten free goodies right away, maybe a little something for a treat... but not every meal, every day...

best for meat, seafood, veggies, fruits, nuts & eggs & maybe some white rice...

re B12, take a sublingual B12 everyday - EVEN if your levels tested okay, the "so called right level" is not high enough, just take a B12 every day - & Chrissy, that goes for your child also...

      Supplements for those Diagnosed with Celiac Disease

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      @Scatterbrain, Thiamine Vitamin B1 and amino acid Taurine work together.  Our bodies can make Taurine from meats consumed.  Our bodies cannot make Thiamine and must consume thiamine from food.  Meat is the best source of B vitamins like Thiamine.   Vegetarians may not make sufficient taurine since they don't eat meat sources of taurine.  Seaweed is the best vegetarian source of taurine. Vegetarians may not consume sufficient Thiamine since few veggies are good sources.  Whole grains, legumes, and nuts and seeds contain thiamine.  Many of these sources can be hard to digest and absorb for people with Celiac disease.   You may find taking the forms of thiamine called Benfotiamine or TTFD (tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide) and a B Complex will give the benefits you're looking for better than taurine alone.

      My only proof

      @Jmartes71, I went to Doterra's site and had a look around.  The Doterra TerraZyme supplement really jumped out at me.  Since we, as Celiacs, often have digestive problems, I looked at the ingredients.  The majority of the enzymes in this supplement are made using black mold, Aspergillus!  Other enzymes are made by yeast Saccharomyces!  Considering the fact that Celiac often have permeable intestines (leaky gut syndrome), I would be very hesitant to take a product like this.  Although there may not be live black mold or yeast in the product, the enzymes may still cause an immune system response which would definitely cause inflammation throughout the body.   Skin, eyes, and intestines are all made from the same basic type of cells.  Your skin on the outside and eyes can reflect how irritated the intestines are on the inside.  Our skin, eyes, and intestines all need the same vitamins and nutrients to be healthy:  Vitamin A, Niacin B3 and Tryptophan, Riboflavin B2, Biotin B7, Vitamin C, and Omega Threes.  Remember that the eight B vitamins work together.  Just taking high doses of just one, vitamin like B12, can cause a deficiency in the others.  Taking high doses of B12 can mask a Folate B9 deficiency.  If you take B12, please take a B Complex, too.  Thiamine B1 can be taken in high doses safely without toxicity.  Thiamine is needed by itself to produce energy so every cell in the body can function, but Thiamine also works with the other B vitamins to make life sustaining enzymes and digestive enzymes.  Deficiencies in either Niacin, Vitamin C, or Thiamine can cause digestive problems resulting in Pellagra, Scurvy, and Gastrointestinal Beriberi.   If you change your diet, you will change your intestinal microbiome.  Following the Autoimmune Protocol Diet, a Paleo diet, will starve out SIBO bacteria.  Thiamine keeps bacteria in check so they don't get out of control as in SIBO.  Thiamine also keeps MOLDS and Yeasts from overgrowth.   Menopause symptoms and menstrual irregularities are symptomatic of low Vitamin D.   Doctors are not as knowledgeable about malnutrition as we need them to be.  A nutritionist or dietician would be more helpful.   Take control of your diet and nutrition.  Quit looking for a pill that's going to make you feel better overnight.  The Celiac journey is a marathon, not a sprint.   "Let food be your medicine, and let medicine be your food."

      Are Lindt chocolate balls gluten free?

      By RUKen · Posted

      The Lindt (Lindor) dairy-free oat milk truffles are definitely gluten-free, and (last time I checked) so are the white chocolate truffles and the mint chocolate truffles.

      I've used magnesium taurinate and magnesium taurate vitamins.  Didn't notice much of a difference when I used them.

      Anyone experimented with Taurine supplementation either via electrolyte powders or otherwise? Thanks
