Non-Antibody Blood Tests For Celiac

Hi all,

I was wondering what blood tests are important when celiac is in suspicion. I already know of the antibody tests but I was wondering things like vitamins, red blood cell count etc... What should I have tested now? I have had every other non celiac related antibody test under the sun to make sure there is nothing else going on autoimmune wise and they all were negative.

So far I know of vitamin B12, D, Ferritin, and red blood cell count.

In addition to B12, D and Ferritin:

B1, K, Iron, Copper and Zinc

I'm pretty my doc tests B2 and B6 as well...I'd have to double check those.

Ok great, so B12, B1, K, Iron, Copper, Zinc, Ferritin, Red blood cell count.

What about glucose fasting? I heard hypoglecemia can occur from celiac, does anyone know if that is true? My fasting glucose in august was 3.8 but I was on bactrim which apparently will cause that so I am retesting it after I get rid of the H. Pylori.

I've never had sugar issues. Only abnormal tests were celiac antibodies, nutrients and slightly elevated liver enzymes - abnormal liver numbers were after many years of undx'd celiac.

Like the autoantibody tests, the vitamin tests can be misleading. My autoantibodies were off the chart but my vitamin levels were great; in fact B12 was higher than normal. My only low vit was D and it was still inside of the "normal" range... not bad for a Canadian. LOL

      KAN-101 Treatment for Coeliac Disease

      By Russ H · Posted

      This treatment looks promising. Its aim is to provoke immune tolerance of gluten, possibly curing the disease. It passed the phase 2 trial with flying colours, and I came across a post on Reddit by one of the study volunteers. Apparently, the results were good enough that the company is applying for fast track approval.  Anokion Announces Positive Symptom Data from its Phase 2 Trial Evaluating KAN-101 for the Treatment of Celiac Disease https://www.reddit.com/r/Celiac/comments/1krx2wh/kan_101_trial_put_on_hold/

      Gluten related ??

      By Colleen H · Posted

      Hi everyone  This has been a crazy year so far... How many people actually get entire sensory overload from gluten or something similar ?  My jaw is going nuts ..and that nerve is affecting my upper back and so on ...  Bones even hurt.  Brain fog. Etc  I had eggs seemed fine.   Then my aid cooked a chicken stir fry in the microwave because my food order shorted a couple key items .   I was so hungry but I noticed light breading and some ingredients with SOY !!! Why are we suffering with soy ? This triggered a sensitivity to bananas and gluten-free yogurt it seems like it's a cycle that it goes on.  The tiniest amount of something gets me I'm guessing the tiny bit of breading that I took one tiny nibble of ...yikes ..im cringing from it .. Feels like my stomach is going to explode yet still very hungry 😔  How long does this last?! Thank you so much

      Celiac getting dentures

      By gfmom06 · Posted

      I have had orthodontic work done. The 3M invisalign material was no problem. BUT my retainers are another matter. They seemed okay for a few months. Now, however, they cause a burning sensation on my tongue, gums and insides of my lips. The burning sensation is now spreading to my throat. I notice it when I breathe. This is annoying and interferes with my enjoyment of eating. I am visiting with my provider tomorrow. We'll see where this goes from here.
