Help With Allergy Test

I have been wanting to get an allergy test done since I have been gluten-free and am still having regular symptoms. I have tried Elimination diets in the past and I have not noticed any differences...especially because every diet is different.

I havent found a doctor out here in Las Vegas NV that understands this disease so I am looking for an effective allergy test that I personally can do w/o the "ok" of a doctor.

Please help if you know where I can turn.

If you are looking for a general food intolerance test you can go online to www.optimumhealthresource.com

The lab is a pretty good lab, but the customer service is awful. It took me 2 months to get my results, but it did pinpoint some problems. I think it is a 96 food intolerance IgG panel, which looks for foods that you have a delayed reaction to.

Search online for the Sage Labs ELISA test. As long as you can get a paper signed by a doctor and a lab to draw your blood, you're all set. It tests for over 100 food allergies. Good luck,

      Finally got in to doctor to get my referral and I lucked out and got into Gastro the same day - question about different transglutaminase results

      Hi Cameo674. just read your post. Well wishes to a correct diagnosis so that you can get on track to healing and feeling better. Personally I know it’s good to have the eosinophilic disorder ruled out too, as this can show anti-ttg igA antibodies too. But usually without the anti-gliadin antibodies unless gliadin is an allergen for you. Thanks for posting the link to look up SNPs rs… numbers on another post. Was useful. Looking at your result, ”Celiac Associated HLD-DQ Typing: DQA1* Value: 05; DQA1*DQA11 Value: 05; DQB1* Value: 02; DQB1-DQB11 Value: 02; Celiac Gene Pairs Present Value: Yes; Celiac HLA Interpretation Value: These genes are permissive for celiac disease.  However, these...

      Hello. Do you mind saying what symptoms led the doctors to test for bacteria in your blood?

      So you you ate wheat products every single day for 50 years without a problem but then in the 90's you discovered that wheat was your problem. That's confusing to me. It seems contradictory. Did you have a problem or not?

      I spent my first 50 years eating wheat products every single day with no ill affects. Being a 6’2” Italian you can imagine what my diet was like and believe me I had an appetite that wouldn’t quit. In the 90’s once I discovered the wheat was my problem I avoided it and no longer had IBS.  I seriously doubt I have celiac but I appreciate your input and will let you know if I have a problem with wheat again. I’ve been eating things I’ve longed for for decades and have never felt better.

      I would say two things and then I'm done. Many celiacs have been misdiagnosed for years with IBS. Testing for celiac disease requires regular and significant consumption of gluten for weeks/months in order to be valid.
