Hello-- I recently received these results. I will see a GI doctor in three weeks for an upper GI. If anyone can please explain (I've looked quite a bit online, but not found exactly the info. to explain what the second number means in light of celiac d. or whatever else)

my GLIADIN AB IGA is 6 and indicates its in the normal range

my GLIADIN AB IGG is >100 which indicates abnormal range

thanks so much, Faith

I wonder if the negative is a typo? Did your doctor do a total IGA? If your total IGA tests are low then that would give a false negative for the IGA related results on a bloodtest. It looks to me like the IGG is above 100 which would mean that the abnormal result was a positive test?

Since you are having the endo make sure you don't go gluten free yet. Welcome to the board and ask any questions you need to.

Yes thanks!-- "negative" was a typo. The Gliadin AB IGG is >100. Thank you for help! Faith

      Progesterone pills - are they gluten free??

      By Wheatwacked · Posted

      Yes, it is important to get 25OHD blood and PTH tested and monitored.  My doctor tests me 4 times a year along with homocysteine and the other blood panels.  Massive vitamin D doses under a doctors care can raise vitamin D level quickly, but those doses wear off in about three months, so either sun or supplementation needs to be instituted in order to not lose the gain.  There have been numerous clinical trials on kidney transplant patients with doses as high a 1.5million IU with no ill effects.  But those are a one time bolus under the care of doctors.  One conumdrus of these really high  dose supplements is a higher incidence of falls.  The answer is that the patient feels so good, they are more active than usual before regaining strength and balance.

      Yes, 50k IU daily would be an a short term front end loading dose for those having critically low levels but you wouldn't want to take it for an extended period.

      Gluten found in Bob's Red Mill TVP using Elisa Technology test

      By trents · Posted

      That's 20ppm, not 20,000 ppm. https://www.fda.gov/food/nutrition-education-resources-materials/gluten-and-food-labeling "The rule specifies, among other criteria, that any foods that carry the label “gluten-free,” “no gluten,” “free of gluten,” or “without gluten” must contain less than 20 parts per million (ppm) of gluten."

      That is a solid home test--feel free to share other tests you run.

      Definitely consult with your doctor before considering such high doses--5,000 IU is likely fine, but 50,000 IU could cause serious issues over time.
