Anyone Ever Done Testing Through Enterolab?

If tested twice with them so far, once for Malnutrition with my daughter who has celiac disease and once now with my son. his results where:

Tissue Transglutaminase Stool Test

Fecal Antitissue Transglutaminase IgA 45 Units (Normal Range <10 Units)

So, he's pos. for Glutensensitivity- he's also the carrier of the Gene DQ2!

Did anyone of you have the same test, what was the result on it? What is your REAL diagnosis, Doctor wise? Has anyone of you scored lower then that or even higher?

the reason why I'm asking is, on the Website for EnteroLab it says that the average pos. result is 45. My son fall excatly in that score! I"m trying to find out if they just round up or down! EnteroLAB seems credible, but still the Stooltest is fairly new, they are the only LAB doing it and I'm still having the little birdy in my head from somebody questionning here really hard how credible they are!

I had 39 on anti gliadin and 18 on transglutaminase. I had been gluten free for 3.5 weeks and on a restricted wheat diet for years.

My daughter's antigliadin was only 12, but her malabsorption score was 816, which is fairly high. Her blood work was negative, but many symptoms resolved after taking her off gluten (or I should say after she finally cooperated, now that I had proof that there was a problem - she is 16).

My at the time 3.5 year old son's anitgliadin was 105 and tissue transglutaminase was 102. His absorption was normal. We haven't seen a GI because one that is recommended in the area doesn't accept Enterolab's results.

The Docs don't like it when Patients already come with their own diagnosis! go see the GI, talk to him aobut all the issues your son has and just SAY that Celiac runs in your family and if he could test your son for it to rule it out, don't tell him aobut the EnteroLab results!

      I have had low Vit D for years before my Celiac diagnosis. I recommend Nature Made, it’s everywhere. GET THE TABLET, not the oil based capsule. The soy oil in the capsules give me diarrhea!

      I'm not yet diagnosed, seeing a GI March 4th I'm keeping a food diary and yesterday I went to play cards at a friends house and ate things I don't ordinarily eat- mainly a bunch of those mini chocolates that ppl typically give out at Halloween (hershey kisses, mr goodbar. milkway, snickers) I ate er... too many.  also had a tiny bit of some kind of creamy salad dressing on raw veggies.  I had SOO much pain last night in my feet- burning, numbness and pain in my feet and ankles, and a bit less so in my knees. Lasted for hours, kept me up half the night at the same time, the trouble with constipation that I've had ever since being put on the chlorthalidone, has started to improve but then gets worse again...and I can't figure out what is making it worse and what is helping it   it is like my entire digestive tract just shuts down.   Before finding out that I may have a renal calcium leak, I did not use fortified plant milks and did not consume dairy. Since being told to consume 1000-1200 mgs of calcium from food per day- I switched to fortified soy and almond milk and added some non fat or low fat plain yogurt (It is very hard to get that much  calcium from other sources without eating an enormous amt of food- I'm 70 and just can't eat that much. I'm already seeing my weight creep up which is disturbing)   I am seeing that ppl with celiac can have issues with dairy- what would those issues be? Did I get glutened yesterday unknowingly or does chocolate or that tiny bit of salad dressing I had have gluten in it?   My feet are fine this morning! thank goodness but the pain was excruciating last night.   I don't know what to do.  I am thinking that I should ditch the dairy  (which I never really wanted to consume in the first place) and maybe anything with calcium carbonate in it (that is very constipating for me) not only has my GI system slowed down, my stools are strange-  round and often float. This so so different from what used to be my normal (on the Bristol stool score it was in the ideal range) I will go several times a day - these meatball sized round floaters I don't know if I'm still dealing with the after affects of the chlorthalidone (which has a very long half life- my last dose of that was Feb 9th or 11th - I'll have to look that up but I think it's been almost a week.   I just want all this pain and discomfort to stop. but I don't know where it's coming from. those 12 days on gluten have just wrecked my whole system it seems.   any ideas what I might do to help things get back to normal?
