My 18 month old was throwing up/diarrhea everything she ate for the past couple months and our specialist just had a Celiac's Panel done after the Upper GI came up negative for reflux. I'm awaiting a call from the doctor, but my MIL is a NP so I consulted her about the results - she came back with a IgA 19 U/mL (Ref <11 U/mL, Positive >17), IgA 4 U/mL (reference Negative <11 U/mL) Can anyone tell me what this means? My MIL just said its a little high - DOES she have Celiac?

Hi bsummers!

I'm new to this forum also and it sounds like you're in a similiar situation as our family. The first test we had done was the anti-gliadin IgG & IgA and the Total IgA. Since that time another Dr. has ordered the EMA & Ttg, which are very specific to celiac disease. The anti-gliadin anti-bodies are used as a screening tool but they're not as specific. Also, there's a gene test that came be done which is helpful in some cases. My child had a very high IgG anti-giladin level but her IgA levels were fine. We're waiting on the EMA & Ttg to come back. If you haven't the EMA & IgA done it might be helpful. :)

      Thank you that’s really helpful, hopeful won’t have to have a biopsy.

      Waiting Gastroenterology review

      That means the normal range (i.e. not celiac disease) would be a result less than 14.99.  Your result is WAY above that. Some gastroenterologists would diagnose that as celiac disease even without a confirming biopsy because it is more than ten times the top of the normal range.

      Diagnosis and further testing Celiac

      By Redanafs · Posted

      Hi everyone. Back in 2022 I had blood work drawn for iga ext gliadin. Since then I’ve developed worse stomach issues and all other health issues. My doctor just said cut out gluten. He did no further testing. Please see my test results attached. I just need some direction cause I feel so ill and the stomach pain is becoming worse. Can this test show indications for other gastrointestinal diseases?

      Does Dailymed.nlm.nih.gov site have filters for gluten?

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Clearly from what you've said the info on Dailymed is much more up to date than the other site, which hasn't been updated since 2017. The fact that some companies might be repackaging drugs does not mean the info on the ingredients is not correct.
