Touble With Blood Test Results

My mother has symptoms that sound similar to celiac, including gastrointestinal and neurological symptoms. She asked her Dr. to test her for celiac and he ordered an anti-gliadin IgA and anti-gliadin IgG. She was tested last week and obtained her results online, but Dr. has not yet responded to her inquiries about the results. The test results are as follows:

Gliadin IgA: 55 (reference range: seefn - U/mL)

Gliadin IgG: <3 (reference range: seefn - U/mL)

What do these results mean?

It means that she'll need to talk with her doctor to obtain the test reference ranges to indicate if the tests are positive or negative. Also have her talk to her doctor about running the total IgA and tTG IgA tests.

      You might find some of these articles interesting--research that shows a connection between celiac disease and some cases of MS: https://www.celiac.com/celiac-disease/celiac-disease-amp-related-diseases-and-disorders/multiple-sclerosis-and-celiac-disease/

      Washing strawberries in water, which you should always do anyway due to pesticides that may be on them, should make them safe.

      It is possible you have an additional food intolerance, possibly to milk/casein?  Many people with celiac disease, especially those who are in the 0-2 year range of their recovery, have additional food intolerance issues which could be temporary. To figure this out you may need to keep a food diary and do an elimination diet over a few months. Some common food intolerance issues are dairy/casein, eggs, corn, oats, and soy. The good news is that after your gut heals (for most people who are 100% gluten-free this will take several months to two years) you may be able to slowly add some these items back into your diet after the damaged villi heal.

      It's been postponed due to my sciatic nerve being in high flaring mode I had a feeling I was worrying about something turns out because of the extent of the disk in my spine with the nerve how it's trapped its a risk my back specialist always told me to be very careful with that area so now it's 1st July  I'm glad I contacted the nurses with my worries

      Hey @trents, thanks! Yeah I’ve used Scan Gluten Free too at some point. It works, though like you said, those databases aren’t always super current. I also used Mitch (getmitch.app). But it’s not an app, just a simple web tool that reads the ingredient list and highlights hidden gluten, risky additives, and cross-contamination notes. But not bad for double-checking labels when things look suspicious.
