So Do I Have It Or Not?

Hey guys, I recently posted that I have been having various stomach and nerve issues to which a neurologist ordered a celiac panel.

Unfortunately, he was pretty stupid when it comes to the disease and told me to go to the GI doc. So while I have to wait for another week, I thought I would ask whether you guys could help.

So here they are.

IGA, serum(normal range 81 - 463 mg/dL) mine = 209

TISSUE TRANSGLUTAM AB IGA (Range less than 5) mine = less than three

but here is the kicker.

Gliadin AB (IGA) ( range <11 U/mL) mine = 16.

So the Gliadin is high and the rest is low. What should I come to think of it?

Tye

I would say you are reacting to GLUTEN. You might be Celiac or Gluten Intolerant. The cure is the same. A Gluten Free Diet. You can ask for a biopsy and genetic testing to learn more. Dont go gluten-free until the biopsy if you want to have one.

      Ectopic heartbeats - any relation to digestive issues?

      Very interesting, @Idnam.  When I was experiencing this problem at its worse, I found high carb meals like lots of rice or too many cookies were a trigger.

      Oh my, I have always had the symptoms for B12 deficiency, which is why I had the blood test that led to my celiac disease diagnosis I had been taking  B vits have been always been amazed that all ,my bloods were perfectly normal! I queried this many times with my doctor as to whether the B12 was active and being absorbed or whether it was just in my bloodstream. They dismissed this idea. And of course I still take them. Thank you so much, what a revelation and really quite understandable,  I am about due for my annual full blood test so maybe I will just stop taking them?

      False tTG3 Test?

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      @SB04, Have you been checked for B12 deficiency?  A deficiency in Vitamin B12 will cause hives and also raise the tTg 3 IgG level, even in people without Celiac Disease.   You can have B12 deficiency without having Celiac Disease.   All eight B vitamins work together.  Do not supplement just a single B vitamin.   Best wishes.
