Got My Blood Test Results

I received my blood test results on Friday. They were all negative. So, this means I for sure don't have a gluten issue right? I'm not sure about this because after I got the test results, I was happy I could go back to a normal diet so I ate pizza and breadsticks. That was on Saturday and I have been in pain ever since! I had only been gluten free for a week prior. Here are the test results:

IGE-SERUM - 95

TTG AB-IGA NEGATIVE (3)

TTG AB-IGG NEGATIVE (5)

GLIADIN AB IGA NEGATIVE (3)

GLIADIN AB IGG NEGATIVE (4)

I'm not sure what these all mean, but they all state "negative"

Please don't go off just blood tests. There are lots of false negatives and doctors going off blood tests and not looking any farther caused me a great deal of lost years and pain.

What you did by going gluten free and then going back to gluten was a gluten challenge. In your case it appears to have been positive. If you are going to persue an endoscopy you need to go back to eating gluten until that is done. If you are not going to have one go back to the diet.

Were you eating gluten-free when your blood test was taken?

No, I was not eating gluten free at the time of the test. Thanks for the advice, ladies!

They did not run the IgA serum, which would help determine the accuracy of your IgA based results.

None of the tests are perfect. You may still have a problem with gluten, even if it isn't Celiac.

      Does anyone here also have Afib

      By cristiana · Posted

      Interesting, when I suffered for a few months with ectopics I noticed that carbohydrates would cause indigestion and bloating in my stomach, then that would lead to my heart skipping beats, and I could feel it in my throat, it was very unsettling.  My last serious bout of this was after eating a Muller Rice Pudding for breakfast.   I happened to be wearing a 48 hour halter at the time and cardiology picked it up, but they weren't worried about what they saw. There was some British doctor who'd made some videos on the Vagus nerve that I remember watching at the time which made sense of what I was experiencing, there did seem to be some sort of connection.

      I asked my cardiologist about stopping vitamins.  He said his tests account for all detectable vitamins from sources other than food.  I only need to stop them for a couple of days.  He has me keep records of meds and vitamins I've ingested over the past 10 days and prior and he does his calculations.

      Do some people with Celiacs develop hypoglycemia?

      By jessysgems · Posted

      Reply to treats I try and eat to bring up the glucose. Sometime I get up 3 times a night and eat something. I don't think food is the issue. A lot of the food they say should help doesn't.  Many mornings my level is 59 and I feel sick, sometimes for hours. It has been recommended I go to an Endocrinologist.
