This is very interesting, and very important! Thanks captaincrab55 for the link. Everyone should check it out, as there is a link at the bottom to a video interview with Dr. Fasano. He goes into much more detail than does the article itself. Amazing!

WOW! Just saw a short segment on WJZ TV 13 about Celiac. It briefly covered the content of the link above. It included a short interview with Dr. Alessio Fasano.. There was some very positive talk about the Drug testing currently going on for that miracle medication..

      Yes, being off gluten for 3 months would likely yield negative results. To get accurate testing redone you would need to restart gluten consumption for several weeks (the "gluten challenge") to the tune of at least 10g of gluten daily (about the amount found in 4-6 slices of wheat bread).

      That is one of the tests covered in the article I linked you above.

      Antibodies to Deamidated gliadin peptides.  It is another celiac antibody test. The main test is the one you had, TTG,  But a full panel will also include DGP IgA and IgG.  I was positive on all of them!

      I had been off of gluten for 3 months due to food testing came back that shows gluten intolerance. I had asked my health care provider that I wanted to be tested for celiac before stopping gluten. Once they actually listed it shows my immunoglobulin A was really elevated and on the AB, IGA part showed <1.0. Would this be a false negative given I had not gluten in months? I’m very frustrated that the the test was not done while eating gluten.
