Not Celiac After All? (this Is Urgent)

I'm starting to conclude that I may not be Celiac after all. I've only experience changes with absence of gluten due to a introduction to new food in my diet, and say healthier ( like high consumption of Vitamin D lately), prompting better health conditions. I remember re-calling many improvements I began to notice, and so thought on what I just stated above and the improvements in areas... thought of what I have been consuming in high amounts ( I guess Vitamin D and Calcium are a few) and looked their benefits online. What I found in Vitamin D benefits are many improvements I've noticed.

Few benefits:

I do see my doctor June 1st, and instead of being tested for anxiety I think it's urgent that I'm tested for allergies. Have anyone experience/ know anyone who found not to be Celiac but thought so due to better choices of food? Could this likely be my problem? I have seen little to no changes in the lump on the back of my head, I think I will go and consume wheat and see my reactions. It may be likely that I could be allergic to something in the air, or something else.

Hi! Did you get the blood work done? That can give you some guidance here (but you have to be eating gluten when you get the it done so you don't get a false negative).

Sounds like you need piece of mind. Get tested for Celiac and then move on if it isn't the problem.

So stop my gluten free diet and get tested first? Or eat gluten a day or two before testing/ doctors?

I'm not sure how long you've been gluten-free :unsure: but if it's for any length of time it is recommended that you go back on a HIGH gluten diet for SIX WEEKS before you have any tests

Good Luck :)

My assistant's son had lumps on the back of his head/neck and it was related to ongoing sinus problems. When those were addressed, the lumps slowly went away.

      Welcome to the celiac.com community, @mike101020! First, what was the reference range for the ttg-iga blood test? Can't tell much from the raw score you gave because different labs use different reference ranges. Second, there are some non celiac medical conditions, some medications and even some non-gluten food proteins that can cause elevated celiac blood antibodies in some individuals. The most likely explanation is celiac disease but it is not quite a slam dunk. The endoscopy/biopsy is considered the gold standard for celiac disease diagnosis and serves as confirmation of elevated blood antibody levels from the blood testing.

      Vitamin D status in the UK is even worse than the US.  vitamin D is essential for fighting bone loss and dental health and resistance to infection.  Mental health and depression can also be affected by vitamin D deficiency.  Perhaps low D is the reason that some suffer from multiple autoimmune diseases.  In studies, low D is a factor in almost all of the autoimmune diseases that it has been studied in. Even while searching for your diagnosis, testing your 25(OH)D status and improving it my help your general wellness. Vitamin D Deficiency Affects 60% in Britain: How to Fix It?

      Hi, I recently was informed by my doctor that I had scored 9.8 on my ttgl blood test and a follow up EMA test was positive.   I am no waiting for a biopsy but have read online that if your EMA is positive then that pretty much confirms celiac. However is this actually true because if it it is what is the point of the biopsy?   Thanks for any help

      Hey there, have you been tested for allergies? You may not only have celiac disease but be allergic. I have celiac disease and am allergic to Barley, wheat and rye.
