Personally, I prefer the 30-food allergen panel ordered by Dr. Scott Swarthout, a chiropractor whose Fresno, California office is situated to the north of Kaiser Permanente (8455 N. Millbrook Ave.). Dr. Swarthout will order the test be performed by Diagnos-Techs, Inc., a clinical and research laboratory in Kent, Washington (6620 S. 192nd Pl., J-104, Kent, Washington 98032 (425/251-0596). The test includes

Holdthegluten,

I used Alletess Medical Laboratory, for my food sensitivities. They ran a panel for 96 different foods. I was sensitive to 21 of them including wheat and gluten. Thus started my gluten free life style. The test at the time was about $100.00. They can be reached at www.foodallergy.com

I have been thinking about getting one of these tests myself lately. I found this article on IGG allergy testing that sounds kind of negative though. As in the results may not be reliable depending on the materials used for the testing. I can't say I understand all of what she said, but it sounds like the doctor found some holes in the process some labs use for testing.

I've been wanting to do this as well. Can't our doctors (Allergists) run the test or are they (the tests) too specialized? That way, insurance will pay. Has anyone gone to an Allergist or their family doctor to have the tests run? Just wondering.

I had the diagnos=techs test for gliadin and it came back negative. My blood work was wildly positive and I had an endoscopy with scalloping.

      I don't think any apps are up to date, which is exactly why this happened to you. Most of the data in such apps is years old, and it doesn't get updated in real time. Ultimately there is no substitution for learning to read labels. The following two lists are very helpful for anyone who is gluten sensitive and needs to avoid gluten when shopping. ...

      What is the best gluten free scanner app? I have the "gluten-free Scanner" app. I scanned an almond joy and it says it contains gluten when the package is labeled gluten free

      GI DX celiac despite neg serology and no biopsy

      Certainly, it would b wise to have a gene test done if your physician is open to it as it would provide some more data to understand what's going on. But keep in mind that the genetic test for celiac disease cannot be used as to diagnose celiac disease, only to establish the potential to develop active celiac disease.

Ultimately there is no substitution for learning to read labels. The following two lists are very helpful for anyone who is gluten sensitive and needs to avoid gluten when shopping. It's very important to learn to read labels and understand sources of hidden gluten, and to know some general information about product labelling--for example in the USA if wheat is a possible allergen it must be declared on a product's ingredient label like this: Allergens: Wheat.

But keep in mind that the genetic test for celiac disease cannot be used as to diagnose celiac disease, only to establish the potential to develop active celiac disease. About 40% of the general population possess one or both of the primary genes known to be associated with the development of active celiac disease but only about 1% of the population actually develop active celiac disease. So, the gene test is an effective "rule out" tool but not an effective diagnostic tool.
