Blood Test Question

Has anyone heard much about Saccharomyces Cerevisiae IgA and IgG for Celiac Disease? Yes I know it is a marker for Chrons but I have been sick for 13 years and dont believe it to be Chrons. I am positive for both IgA and IgG from above. Has anyone ever heard of positive Esophinals?? My doctor said thats from an allergy but I have had the basic food allergies and they were negative. I am at my wits end with being sick. I have to start over with new drs now which might be good due to moving... Anything help???

I have done alot of internet research but I am just curious if anyone has ever been positive for any of these things??

Yes, Elevated Esophinals are common and many have them found during a scope even if the villi destruction isn't complete and here are a couple links On SC although you may have seen them already.

Saccharomyces is a yeast found in beer but it also is part of the normal flora of parasitic tapeworms so they can be carried into you by those parasites and overgrow. That you have eosinophils is an indication that you most likely are carrying some intestinal parasites - and this is a more common problem than some Drs think it is. You can go the medical route and take meds after id of the parasites - Metametrix Labs offers a panel which will identify the organisms in your gut and can be ordered by your DR. Many people choose to treat a more broad spectrum of parasites, yeasts and intestinal bacterial overgrowth with herbs and various supplements. If you are interested in this go to Curezone and look at the forums for Parasites, Candida and Liver Flush Support. I regularly use a progran which includes parasite herbs, kidney support, liver support and gall bladder cleanses. I also use the Specific Carbohydrate diet as do some others on this forum.

IMHO cleanses can be dangerous for those of us with compromised systems. If a person suspects parasites their MD can order testing for them and treat.

I am positive I dont have parasites. I have been sick with the same symptoms for 13 years now and have had any kind of test you can think of almost. 5 Colonoscopies, Capsule Camera, bloodwork for weeks, and so on. My dr indicated to me Esophinols have to do with allergies.

My dr indicated to me Esophinols have to do with allergies.

That is also my understanding. Avoiding the foods you are sensitive to should bring the numbers down.

      Hi @JulieRe.  I just found your post.  It seems that I am also experiencing thrush, and my doctor believes that I have fungal overgrowth in my gut, which is most likely candida.  I'm seeing my GI doctor next week, so I'm hoping she can diagnose and confirm this and then give me an antifungal treatment.  In the meantime, I have been working with a functional medicine doctor, doing a candida cleanse and taking vitamins. It's already helping to make me feel better (with some ups and downs, of course), so I do think the yeast is definitely a problem for me on top of my celiac disease and I'm hoping my GI doctor can look into this a bit further.  So, how about you?  Did the candida come back, or is it still gone following your fluconazole treatment?  Also, was it awful to take fluconazole?  I understand that taking an antifungal can cause a reaction that sometimes makes people feel sick while they're taking it.  I hope you're doing better still !

      I'm so sorry you're going through this—the "gluten challenge" is notoriously brutal, and it's awful to deliberately make yourself sick when you've already found the answer. For the joint pain, many people find that over-the-counter anti-inflammatories like ibuprofen can help take the edge off, and using heating pads or warm baths can provide some direct relief for the aches. For the digestive misery, stick to simple, easy-to-digest foods (like plain rice, bananas, and bone broth) and drink plenty of water and electrolytes to stay hydrated. It feels like the longest month ever, but you are doing the right thing to get a clear diagnosis, which can be crucial for your long-term health and getting the proper care. Hang in there; you can get through this! This article, and the comments below it, may be helpful:

      Daura Damm (a sponsor here) uses AN-PEP enzymes and filtering in their brewing process to reduce/remove gluten, and it actually tests below 10ppm (I've see a document where they claim 5ppm).

      This topic has come up before on this forum and has been researched. No GMO wheat, barley and rye are commercially available in the USA. Any modifications are from hybridization, not laboratory genetic modification. Better toleration of wheat, barley and rye products in other countries is thought to be due to use of heirloom varieties of these cereal grains as opposed to the hybrids used in the USA which contain much larger amounts of gluten.

      Welcome to the forum @Ceekay! If you have celiac disease then you can't eat wheat in other countries because it would still contain gliadin, the harmful part of the grain. Have you been diagnosed with celiac disease?
