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!

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!

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.

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

      how much gluten do I need to eat before blood tests?

      oh that's interesting... it's hard to say for sure but it has *seemed* like oats might be causing me some vague issues in the past few months. It's odd that I never really connect specific symptoms to foods, it's more of an all over feeling of unwellness after eating them. If it happens a few times after eating the same foods- I cut back...

      IBS-D vs Celiac

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      What you’re describing really does not read like typical IBS-D. The dramatic, rapid normalization of stool frequency and form after removing wheat, along with improved tolerance of legumes and plant foods, is a classic pattern seen in gluten-driven disease rather than functional IBS. IBS usually worsens with fiber and beans, not improves. The fact that you carry HLA-DQ2.2 means celiac disease is absolutely possible, even if it’s less common than DQ2.5, and many people with DQ2.2 present later and are under-diagnosed. Your hesitation to reintroduce gluten is completely understandable — quality of life matters — and many people in your position choose to remain strictly gluten-free and treat it as medically necessary even without formal biopsy confirmation. If and when you’re ready, a physician can help you weigh options like limited gluten challenge, serology history, or documentation as “probable celiac.” What’s clear is that this wasn’t just random IBS — you identified the trigger, and your body has been very consistent in its response.

It's odd that I never really connect specific symptoms to foods, it's more of an all over feeling of unwellness after  eating them.  If it happens a few times after eating the same foods- I cut back or avoid them. for this reason I avoid dairy and eggs.  So far this has worked well for me.  oh, I have some of Bob's Red Mill Mighty Tasty Hot cereal and I love it! it's hard to find but I will be looking for more.  for the next few weeks I'm going to be concentrating on whole fresh fruits and veggies and beans and nuts and seeds. I'll have to find out if grains are truly necessary in our diet. I buy brown rice pasta but only eat that maybe once a month at most. Never liked quinoa. And all the other exotic sounding grains seem to be time consuming to prepare. Something to look at later. I love beans and to me they provide the heft and calories that make me feel full for a lot longer than a big bowl of broccoli or other veggies. I can't even tolerate the plant milks right now.  I have reached out to the endo for guidance regarding calcium intake - she wants me to consume 1000mgs from food daily and I'm not able to get to more than 600mgs right now.  not supposed to use a supplement until after my next round of testing for hyperparathyroidism.   thanks again- you seem to know quite a bit about celiac.

      IBS-D vs Celiac

      By trents · Posted

      Welcome to the celiac.com community, @SilkieFairy! You could also have NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity) as opposed to celiac disease. They share many of the same symptoms, especially the GI ones. There is no test for NCGS. Celiac disease must first be ruled out.

      By trents · Posted

      Under the circumstances, your decision to have the testing done on day 14 sounds very reasonable. But I think by now you know for certain that you either have celiac disease or NCGS and either way you absolutely need to eliminate gluten from your diet. I don't think you have to have an official diagnosis of celiac disease to leverage gluten free service in hospitals or institutional care and I'm guessing your physician would be willing to grant you a diagnosis of gluten sensitivity (NCGS) even if your celiac testing comes up negative. Also, you need to be aware that oats (even gluten free oats) is a common cross reactor in the celiac community. Oat protein (avenin) is similar to gluten. You might want to look at some other gluten free hot  breakfast cereal alternatives.
