And also, what tests did you order?

Hi,

We have ordered from Enterolab three times. One time it was 21 days, the other two were 20 days. Two times it was just the IGA anti-gliadin antibodies and one time it took 21 days and the other 20 days. The other 20 days time frame was the panel for casein, egg, yeast and soy sensitivity.

I know what you mean about being anxious. I'd leave my email page up for days and constantly press refresh.

Btw, they were spot on with the results! I would highly recommend Enterolab. For us, they have been more helpful than our doctors.......I personallly think Dr. Fine is a forward thinker who is correct.

Good luck!

Thank for your reply! I don't know if I can handle another 10 days!! I know I'm being dramatic but I really want to know and fully understand the results before schools starts!! Right now I'm gluten and casein free to get a jumpstart incase it is positive...

runningcrazy Contributor

Okay enough dramatic effects, how long did it take you to get your results???!!!!!!!!

It took what seemed like forever for us too(I want to say closer to a month. I finally called them up and found that the results were in but somehow they hadn't gotten to us.(I may have been partly to blame)They e-mailed and snail mailed copies right away!

I just sent mine off yesterday. Fortunately I'm going on a two week tropical vacation next week that should keep me distracted enough that I can NOT think about it. :huh:

Lucky!! Have fun, maybe when you get back you'll have your results early!

runningcrazy Contributor

Try to relax, in the scheme of things here, the amount of time will seem small when you look back on it. I think mine took a little under six weeks to come back. Isn't that what they quote? You can eat gluten-free in the meantime, you kow, get a start on feeling better. Barbara

Thanks! I've been gluten free since the day before we sent it off. I've been a lot better, not as much bloating, headaches are gone, not so many stomach aches,etc.

The website says to allow 3 weeks, so I only have three days left but I'm being crazy about it. My whole family says I sound like a broken record because every hour or so they hear: "not available!!"

I'm betting you will hear from them on Monday. Call them if not by 21 days. I had a soy test done and had to call them on day 22. Dr. Fine was traveling so they were behind but sent it out to me asap the next day. My G.I., although wishes he would get published, uses enterolab for patients that test negative in all areas of conventional testing but still have symptoms.

Does anyone know if they send out results during the weekend, or do they only do things on weekdays? Because we had to send it monday, tuesday or wednesday so they would get it before the weekend.

I know you're anxious but please calm down- the stress will kill u before the gluten at the rate you're going. What will be will be..just take deep breaths

Haha..okay I'll calm down.I gave up refreshing the enterolab site so I guess I'll just wait until the email arrives.

I'm pretty sure I know what it will say, so I'll wait. Luckily I've got a few things to keep me busy. I'll be showing my dog Monday and other things so I will calm down.

Thanks for the reminder!!

.GOT THE RESULTS!!!!

So my genes from enterolab were HLA-DQ 3,3 (subtype 8,7) can someone tell me what in the world this means in a way i can understand??? Im very confused.

And I had on the fecal antigliadin test a 26 (normal less than 10) but on the fecal tissue transglutimanase it was a 9(normal less than 10) does it mean anything?? One positive and one negative. It says to stay off gluten because i had a positive. any other info? thanks

      What you describe is seronegative villous atrophy (negative antibody tests but positive biopsy). It is uncommon in coeliac disease, and there are other causes, but the most common cause is coeliac disease. I would pursue this with your healthcare provider if possible. Based on clinical history, test results and possible genetic testing for susceptibility to coeliac disease it should be possible to give a diagnosis. There is a bit more here: Seronegative coeliac disease

      If you are still eating gluten you could get a celiac disease blood panel done, but I agree with @trents and the gold standard for diagnosing celiac disease would be your endoscopy results. Is it possible they did do a celiac disease panel before your biopsy? This would be the normal chain of events. This article might be helpful. It breaks down each type of test, and what a positive results means in terms of the probability that you might have celiac disease. One test that always needs to be done is the IgA Levels/Deficiency Test (often called "Total IGA") because some people are naturally IGA deficient, and if this is the case, then certain blood tests for celiac disease might be false-negative, and other types of tests need to be done to make an accurate diagnosis. The article includes the "Mayo Clinic Protocol," which is the best overall protocol for results to be ~98% accurate.

      Actually, it would be more correct to say that the genetic potential to develop celiac disease is passed down from parents to children. About 40% of the general population has the genetic potential to develop celiac disease but only about 1% of the general population actually do. But it is also true that the offspring of those who do have active celiac disease are at a considerably higher risk of developing active celiac disease than those of parents who have the genes but don't develop the disease. Some recent, larger studies put the risk at near 50% for the first degree relatives of those who have active celiac disease.

      Hello everyone! Been a while since I posted. The past few moths have been the best by for recovery for myself. I have been the least bloated I have ever been, my constant throat clearing is almost gone, I have stopped almost all medication I was prevously taking (was taking vyvanse for adhd, pristiq for anxiety,fomotadine/blexten for histamine blockers and singulair). Only thing I take now is Tecta. I also no longer get any rashes after eating. Things are going very well. Most success came actually once I upped my B12 daily dose to 5,000 mcg. I do have one thing I am un able to figure out and want to see if anyone else has this issue or has experience working around it. Ever since I was born I have always had a issue getting fruits and veggies down. No matter how hard I tried, it would always result in gagging or throwing up. Always just thought I was a picky eater. Now that my stomach and system has healed enough that I can feel when something is off almost istantly, I notice that after eating most fruits (sometimes I am ok with bananas) and veggies, my stomach instantly starts burning and my heart starts to pound and I get really anxious as if my body doesnt know what to do with what just enetered it. So I am thinking now that this is what probably was going on when I was born and my body started rejecting it before which caused this weird sensory issue with it causing the gagging. Hoping someone has some exprience with this as well because I would love to be able to enjoy a nice fruit smoothie once in a while haha. Thanks everyone!

      i know i've been rather cynical and sad about being fully diagnosed in june 2025, but my boyfriend has been consistently showing me the wonderful world that is gluten free cooking and baking. in the past couple of days he's made me a gluten free rice paper-wrapped spanakopita "pastry", plus a wonderful mac and cheese bechamel-ish sauce with gluten free pasta (san remo brand if you're in australia/if you can get your hands on it wherever you are).  those meals are notably gluten free, but mainly he's been making me easy gluten free meals - chili mince with white rice and sour cream, chicken soup with homemade stock from the chicken remains, and roast chickens with rice flour gravy and roast veggies. i'm a bit too thankful and grateful lol. how lucky could i possibly be? and, of course, for those who don't have someone to cook for them, it's quite easy to learn to cook for yourself. i've been making a lot of meals for us too. honestly, cooking is pretty darn fun! knowing basic knife skills and sanitary practices are all you really need. experimenting with spices will help you get on track to creating some really flavourful and yummy dishes. coeliac is a pain, but you can use it to your advantage. healthier eating and having fun in the kitchen are major upsides. much luck to all of you! let's be healthy!
