My initial blood results were:

Tissue Transglutaminase IgA = >300 U/mL

Anti Gliadin IgA antibodies = 202.9 U/mL

Here's hoping they have gone down significantly!

My Gosh!!!! Are you being tested soon? How are you feeling? Hopefully your feeling good and those levels will have gone down a lot on your retest.

I haven't been able to completely decipher my levels, although the physician's assistant said my levels were the highest she had ever seen. If anyone can help me figure out which is which, I welcome some assistance!

Iga: 248 mg/dl (ref range 81-463)

(tTG) Ab, IgG: (not tested... said "not required"... maybe because of other positive results?)

Endomysial Ab IgA: Positive (*) <--not sure what the asterisk means

(tTG) Ab, IgA: 54 (H) mL

Endomysial Ab TITER: 1:40 (H) (ref range: less than 1:5)

my tTG was at 51 in April and was recently at 8. not bad for 5 months of being gluten-free... yours will come down as well.

My TtG, IgA is still in the 70s after 7 months on a 100% gluten-free diet :S

      More great tips, and a good excuse to shop at M&S and also buy more iced buns!   I wish we had an ASDA near us, as the few times we've been to one their gluten-free pasta range seemed very reasonably priced compared to other shops.  Thanks so much, @Russ H.

      I hope you are on the mend soon. About 1 in 5 people who contracted chicken pox as a child go on to develop shingles in later life - it is not uncommon. There are 5 known members of the herpes virus family including chicken pox that commonly infect humans, and they all cause lifelong infections. The exact cause of viral reactivation as in the case of shingles or cold sores is not well understood, but stress, sunburn and radiotherapy treatment are known triggers. Some of the herpes viruses are implicated in triggering autoimmune diseases: Epstein-Barr virus is suspected of triggering multiple sclerosis and lupus, and there is a case where it is suspected of triggering coeliac disease. As to whether coeliac disease can increase the likelihood of viral reactivation, there have been several cohort studies including a large one in Sweden suggesting that coeliac disease is associated with a moderate increase in the likelihood of developing shingles in people over the age of 50.

      BFree bread is fortified with vitamins and minerals as is ASDA own-brand gluten-free bread. All the M&S bread seems to be fortified also.
