Second Celiac Panel, Numbers Went Up A Little

Ok so I got my results back for my celiac panel after being on a gluten challenge for almost 3 months. It came back with everything in normal range but some of the numbers went up just a little. Would you suspect anything by that? They didn't go up much but I'm thinking that if I was on gluten long enough they would continue to go up, not that I'm willing to test that theory :P Am I right? Maybe I'm reaching a little. I have a biopsy scheduled for next friday so we'll see how that turns out. Here's my results, old and new...

old/new normal range

Deamidated Gliadin Abs, IgA 4/3 0-19

Deamidated Gliadin Abs, IgG 1/3 0-19

tTG IgA <1/<1 0-3

tTG IgG <1/1 0-5

Endomysial Antibody IgA negative both times

Immunoglobulin A, Gn, Serum 203/214 70-400

More important than the numbers is how did you feel gluten free and how did your body respond to the challenge. Did the diet help issues you were having and did those issues return when you added back gluten?

Well, I definitely know I have a problem with gluten. There's really no question there. The challenge has been pretty miserable but I'm extremely stubborn so I was able to stick it out :P No matter how everything comes out I will be 100% gluten free after my endoscopy next Friday and can't wait! It's really just more of a curiosity thing I guess, just wondering if a small increase in numbers means anything? Or, is it pretty normal for those numbers to fluctuate whether you have a problem with gluten or not? Thanks for responding :)

      Emergency Room

      By Katerific · Posted

      On Saturday I got glutened so badly that I had to go to the Emergency Room at the hospital.  I only eat in restaurants approximately 2 times a year.  We went to a pizza place that has gluten free pizza.  They show nutritional information about all their menu items and it seemed I could get all the ingredients for my gluten free pizza.  Now I read that pizzerias are one of the top places to get glutened.  About 2 hours later, I started vomiting and having diarrhea.  I couldn't stop vomiting, I was dizzy, pouring sweat and I was shaking so much.  I have never felt so sick in my life.  The hospital gave me Zofran and a bag of saline and I went home a few hours later.  Yesterday I sat in the recliner and sipped Pedialyte and ate gluten-free crackers all day.  I felt weak and nauseous.  Today I feel better, but weak.  What else should I do to recover from the gluten assault on my body?

      Recurring flu like symptoms after being precribed immune system stimulating drug

      Normal vitamin D range us from 20 ng/ml to 100 ng/ml.  200 nmol/L is the same as 80ng/ml. Minimum vitamin D is based soley on preventing Rickets and osteomyelitis.  Othe research is considered irrelevant insufficnet proof.   My 25(OH)D level is just over 80 ng/dl.  It took 8 years of 10,000 IU a day to get here because Celiac Disease causes low D.  In 1952 the UK banned all vitamin D supplementation due to a error.  Most of the world followed suit.  In the western world vitamin D deficiency ranges from 40% of the US to 60% in the UK. If you had an office with workspace for 30 to 100 workers, but you were restricted to less than 50 workers, how well would the office run.? A factory worker has 40 ng/ml,  A lifeguard has around 80.  Who's immune system works better? Simultaneously, 1,25(OH)2D3 up- and downregulates more than 1000 genes responsible for cellular proliferation, differentiation, a variety of cellular metabolic activities, antiangiogenesis and apoptosis   https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC9919777/

      Welcome to the forum, @Mpanknin! Questions like that really have no definite answer. Even if you tested a container of it for gluten content, the test results would only be good for that production batch. Assume it has some degree of CC. A more important question might be, how sensitive are you to minor amounts of gluten exposure?

      blood pressure meds that are gluten free

      By Yvonne Ayers Albers · Posted

      I have Celiac, and I just found out that HCTZ has gluten in it, and also makes you severely constipated versus diarrrhea!!  I need another medicene for blood pressure that is certified gluten free, without the 20 ppm, and doesn't cause constipation, please!!

      Thanks Wheatwacked. My D is normal. I take B12, B6, and a bone health supplement (I'm 67) that has K1, Calcium, Magnesium, and a bunch of other things. But no thiamine. But I will have my doc add it to my next blood draw. Thanks for the info WW!
