In my country celiac disease is not so known and doctors dont know to much about that disease.

This is my analysis results:

negative anti gliadin IgA and very high positive IgG

positive Tissue Transglutaminase IgG

Can anyone tell me is that good or bad ?

On analysis before this everything where positive, so any progress since then?

Thanks.

Without knowing the actual numbers on your tests it is hard to tell if you are making any progress. Also, how long ago was your first round of testing. If your numbers are not dropping at all you are not making any progress, although interesting that the IgA was now negative. You could be a low IgA producer - you don't mention if total IgA was run.

Here are my latest results:

date of analysis: Jul 5

Anti gliadin IgA :1.21 U/ml

Anti Gliadin IgG : 22.76 U/ml

Tissue Transglutaminase IgG: 3.56 U/ml

My first results:

date of analysis:March 26

Anti gliadin IgA :7.78 U/ml

Anti Gliadin IgG : 39.59 U/ml

Tissue Transglutaminase IgG: 3.39 U/ml

After these first results, gastroscopy results confirmed that I have celiac disease. I started with gluten-free diet from 27 April. Do these results show progress according to my diet?

I'm not an expert, but they look like they are coming down. It can take longer than 2 months for them to go back to normal.

It is normal to do this kind of check after six months and a year. People heal at different rates and a three-month check doesn't really mean a lot. Many of us have barely begun to heal at that point.

Hi, at 50 yrs old I just got diagnosed after 45 yrs of symptoms. So I was happy to at least get the diagnosis. I was tested in Oct 2012 while still eating some gluten.

My IgA was 474

I have been gluten free for 3 months. Have been also drinking an  intestinal healing powder for celiacs and also taking lots of Bio K liquid probiotics as I also have a candida issue on top of the celiacs.

Other than the celiacs and candida, I am a health nut except for my sweet tooth. I juice,eat sardines,taking vitamin,E,A,D and zinc.The rashes (chicken pox like)  that have ravaged  my scalp and buttocks for 35 years are both almost gone after going gluten free the last three months so imagine my horror to see this result on Mondays IgA test on my celiacs panel.

My IgA  is now 519 !!!!! should I be dead ? I see everyone else with numbers below 130. and I'm getting scared. I do believe my current Dr is a moron though. she knows very little about eliacs and look s at me like she thinks I am lying about all the symptoms I have had. I want a new Dr in the Denver area. I saw on this site there was a Celiacs Dr nearby so Halleluyah !!! Thanks for posting that !

      Does anyone know any good gluten free lip balm?

      By Lockgirl · Posted

      I have been using their toothpaste and some of their other products that are labeled gluten free. Sorry about that. It is so frustratingly hard to get clear answers from companies on gluten content.

      I've been using eos lip balms. I usually get it at costco. Eos has little round balms, but also stick ones like chap stick. Costco has both. They are labeled gluten free when you buy individual balms, but the combo package from costco isn't always labeled gluten-free. The company web site says they are gluten-free. I'm pretty sensitive, I use the balms all day every day, and haven't had any reactions.

      Last time i checked, Burts Bees does not label anything gluten free. They had 1 lip balm that contained gluten, and their site said their products can be made on shared equipment.

      13 y/o new celiac dx and joint pain

      By cristiana · Posted

      I had rib pain, but also hip and leg pain - google sacroiliac pain, it's common in coeliacs. SI joint pain affects the hip, buttock and thigh area.  When I had it at its worst it was incredibly painful, a sort of burning sensation. If this is what your child is experiencing, she may find it helpful not to wear tight jeans or waistbands.  Any pressure around the area exacerbated the pain greatly.  Also, I am sure the lower quadrant bloating I was experiencing at the time made things a whole lot worse, that internal pressure seemed to add to the pain.   One other thing is that it is important that your daughter wears the right shoes, avoiding very flat unsupportive soles or heels, and doesn't overdo exercise that jarrs the joints.  The good news is that for me it did get much better as my gastric symptoms improved, particularly the bloating - but it did take a few months.  You may find these links helpful: https://www.spine-health.com/blog/common-triggers-si-joint-pain-and-how-prevent-flare-up#:~:text=The SI joint can become,the joint to flare-up. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/19504097/ If your daughter is experiencing rib pain, that could be costochondritis.  I had that too, and a similar sort of burning.  Again, when my GI symptoms improved so did the pain.  Bloating will still kick it off from time to time. But I am glad you are having D levels checked, as low levels can contribute to joint pain.

      Newly Diagnosed

      By Russ H · Posted

      Approximately 1 in 3 adults have neurological symptoms on diagnosis. The mechanism and pathogenesis is unknown. These normally go into remission on a strict gluten-free diet. Common symptoms are anxiety, slow thinking, 'brain fog', memory problems and headaches. Although I think I have had coeliac disease in a mild form since childhood, my symptoms suddenly became much worse in later life. Along with the gastrointestinal symptoms and fatigue, I developed a tremendous sense of doom, anxiety and paranoia. The diet can be awkward at first but becomes easier with time.
