- Bronwyn W posted a topic in Coping with Celiac Disease0Symptom treatment of gluten exposure with Anti-inflammatories
Hi, Please can I ask for opinions on using Anti-inflammatories for symptom treatment of inadvertent gluten exposure? Should it be part of a foundational treatment plan, upon inadvertent exposure? Kind Regards, Bronwyn -

In testing for celiac disease total IgA is run just to be sure you’re not deficient (in which case the TTG IgA results would not be reliable). Different labs may have slightly different normal ranges, but the units are usually the same and the results can be compared.

Does this mean those could raise IgA and TTG IgA in celiacs? -

TTG IgA and IGA elevated mildy
One lab said normal range for IgA is 45-325 and TTG IgA anything above 15 means positive for Anitbody For this one my IGA was 415 and TTG IgA 16.3 The other lab 3 months later said IgA range is 75-425 and TTG IgA anything below 20 is negative, 20-30 weak positive, 30+ positive. For this one my IGA was 456 and TTG IgA 30.2 CU

In testing for celiac disease total IgA is run just to be sure you’re not deficient (in which case the TTG IgA results would not be reliable). Different labs may have slightly different normal ranges, but the units are usually the same and the results can be compared. In your case, what is meaningful for celiac disease is that you were not deficient in total IgA for either test. Different labs use different units for the TTG IgA test and there are no conversion factors to turn one into the other. In your case, the labs have another difference - one uses a weak positive category and one doesn’t. The two results really can’t be compared. In each case you’re slightly into the full positive range for that test/lab so in reality your antibodies might not have jumped up at all between these two tests.
