My Endo just ordered this test for me, and I dont believe I had one of these when I had my first Celiac blood test last year.

Anyone know how reliable or specific this one is?

Thanks for any info.

Hi Tasha, That is the test I had and my value was 97. Since going gluten-free, my bowel symptoms are gone; I'm still fighting the fatigue, however, after 2 months. Here are links with more info about the test:

YankeeDB: You win the prize for sending me the information. I appreciate it.

I had a positive IgA test, but everything else was negative (that was last year.) This year the doctor decided to run the Ttg. I have no symptoms whatsoever, except some tummy "bubbling." I should have the results of this test this week, and am just trying to keep the situation monitored in case things change.

      Stomach hurts with movement

      By amantelchi · Posted

      I'd like to clarify: Is the pain you describe in the area just below your chest constant, or does it only appear when you start moving?

      gluten-free Oatmeal

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Oats naturally contain a protein called avenin, which is similar to the gluten proteins found in wheat, barley, and rye. While avenin is generally considered safe for most people with celiac disease, some individuals, around 5-10% of celiacs, may also have sensitivity to avenin, leading to symptoms similar to gluten exposure. You may fall into this category, and eliminating them is the best way to figure this out. Some people substitute gluten-free quinoa flakes for oats if they want a hot cereal substitute. If you are interested in summaries of scientific publications on the topic of oats and celiac disease, we have an entire category dedicated to it which is here: https://www.celiac.com/celiac-disease/oats-and-celiac-disease-are-they-gluten-free/
