My 14 month old had labs done, I was told he is IGA deficient and the celiac tests are negative becasue he is IGA deficient.

I picked up a copy of the labs today and i have no idea what they mean..if anyone could explain anything, it would be appreciated.

Gliadin IGG/IGA ab Prof, EIA

Deamidated Gliadin ABS, IGA results: 1 unit

Deamidated Gliadon Abs, IGG 2 units

Endomysial Antibody IGA Negative

T-Transglutaminase (ttg) IGA

t-Transglutaminase IGA <2

IGA Subclass 1 32.8L Limits 58.2-263.5

Done by Labcorp

The ranges are 0-19 negative

20-30 weak positive

20-30 moderate to strong

My biggest questions are: is negative mean you have it...what is IGA subclass 1?

It would appear that the IGA subclass 1 is what I have always seen referred to as the total serum IGA. His was 32.8 where normal is 58.2 to 263.5, therefore he is IGA deficient, meaning he does not make the normal levels of antibodies. This means that all the IGA tests are meaningless - the negative levels on these tests are irrelevant.

      Waiting Gastroenterology review

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

      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.
