Blood Results? Help!

My Gliadin was 4, Aga Sirium was 278, and my Transglate was 3. The nurse said these are the only numbers for the celiac panel. My biopsy on my upper endecoscopy came back with an increase in something she said it was long and couldn't be pronounced for whatever that means. I have had the pill endocoscopy and will get the results for that on Monday afternoon. So these numbers look good from what she said was the normals. Any comments on anything else that should have been ran? Thanks

Since you have finished your testing you don't have to wait for the endo results to give the diet a shot. False negatives are unfortunately not uncommon in both blood and endo. It is a good idea no matter what the test results to do a trial of the gluten-free diet for a couple of months.

It would be a good idea to get a copy of the report of the endoscopy to see whatever that unpronounceable word was :)

      Persistent isolated high DGP-IGG in child despite gluten-free diet

      @melthebell, keep us posted. We are learning more and more about gluten disorders as time goes on. One of the things that has become apparent to me is that gluten disorders don't always like to fit into the neat little pigeon hole symptomatic and diagnostic paradigms we have created for them. There seems to be a lot more atypical stuff going on than we once...

      Persistent isolated high DGP-IGG in child despite gluten-free diet

      Thanks very much for taking the time to write. I have been reading a lot about this and it definitely is not straight forward. My first port of call is the gene test - probably should have had it done before we left Australia because they don’t run the test in Japan. So I’ve ordered a third party test kit and just swabbed his cheek. Then we start the glu...

      Reverse Osmosis (RO) Water

      I am honestly not sure. Initially I was purchasing my RO water via a refill station at the same store for the past several years. My employer (at the time) also has an RO water filtration system. Thus while drinking water and coffee at home or work, I was consuming RO water. I just so happened to switch to a gallon of sealed store bought distilled water...

I’m borderline obsessive in making sure my kids get tested; my parents are convinced undiagnosed celiac in childhood stunted some of my growth and cause tooth enamel issues.  We now embark on a gluten challenge which comes with its own problems and I know diagnosis after being gluten-free can be difficult to secure. But I will absolutely persevere.

      Reverse Osmosis (RO) Water

      By Known1 · Posted

      I am honestly not sure.  Initially I was purchasing my RO water via a refill station at the same store for the past several years.  My employer (at the time) also has an RO water filtration system.  Thus while drinking water and coffee at home or work, I was consuming RO water.  I just so happened to switch to a gallon of sealed store bought distilled water at home and instantly felt better.  I know that sounds like an exaggeration, but it is true.  My initial thought was the RO water refill station must have been contaminated, possibly from some sort of cleaning agent. Later I bought completely sealed RO water from a different store.  Again, my stomach started making crazy noises and I felt off.  It took a few days to get through all of the RO water I bought.  I thought it was distilled or spring, but after reading the label a bit closer...nope it was RO water.  Again, as soon as I stopped drinking it my stomach settled and I felt SO much better. I cannot say what it is about RO water that does not agree with me, but there are threads on Reddit and elsewhere on the Internet with plenty of people reporting GI related issues from RO water.  I linked to one in my original post within this thread.  While doing more research, I have discovered that RO water filtration systems should not be used with copper plumbing.  Per Google AI Overview:  Reverse Osmosis (RO) water should not pass through or be stored in copper plumbing because the purified, low-TDS water is highly aggressive and causes corrosion, pitting, and pinhole leaks in copper pipes. RO water leaches copper, resulting in a metallic taste and potential health risks like copper poisoning. Always use polyethylene (plastic) tubing for RO systems. The more I learn about RO water, the more I plan to steer clear.  If it is well know to damage and leach copper...well I'll just leave it at that.
