Meenucat-

People are seeing your posts. Please stop re-posting your information. You are going against board rules/guidelines by posting the same things all these times. You can find your multiple posts all under one category now. Having multiple posts bogs down the board and makes it less effective. Please take the time to make yourself familiar with the rules and guidelines of this board and community. Thanks!

I see that now but I don't think that this format is very newbie-friendly - I was not multiple posting to be rude or to get attention to my posts, I just couldn't understand where the posts were going - I read the rules of the board before I ever made any posts and my cookies/firewall wasn't an issue so I was confused...

I could see my posts when they were replies to threads that other people had started but could not see any of the posts that I had started myself.

I cannot speak for everyone here, but I can say that I certainly never meant to spam the boards - I was just questioning if my threads were being posted.

Believe me, it will never happen again.

It is a bit confusing I agree, anyway, welcome to the board and please don't think we don't want you here! :D

Did you have any questions or anything?

First of all, Welcome to the board.

The reason I pointed these things out to you is.....I spent a good 30 min. cleaning up the message trail that you left. I am not paid for this job, it is a volunteer position that I enjoy doing. It helps the celiac community.

I just want you to know how to use the board and what the rules are. If we do not let you know, then how will you learn to get around on here? Please do not be offended by my statement. I just wanted you to know your posts were going through, and that you need to be careful when posting. End of story.

Thank you for the warm welcome, Lisa! :D

As for having questions...I have a lot of disease-related ones - I posted a question about B12 deficiency over on the pre-diagnosis board - I do have a lot of questions but I am waiting to post these until late next week (after my biopsies come back and I get some answers).

As for technical board questions - I'll get back to you on that one as soon as I learn more about how things work here ;)

      I agree, and hopefully your doctor will contact you soon about the next step, which will likely be an endoscopy to confirm your diagnosis. Do you have celiac disease symptoms?

      Still dealing with this rash on my legs. I've eliminated ringworm (through use of topical ointments). And I also know it's not shingles, as I've never had chickenpox before and I'm still fairly young. Through a lot of online research, I'm leaning more towards dermatitis herpetiformis, eczema, or psoriasis. I've actually got a doctor's appointment in May (finally got some insurance) and I'm going to bring it up then. I'm feeling really hopeful and excited to maybe be getting some relief soon.   Big thanks to everyone for the suggestions and positive thoughts!

      You have three celiac disease specific antibody tests that are positive: Endomysial  Antibody IGA (aka, EMA), tTG-IGA, and tTG_IGG. Furthermore, your Immunoglobulin A at 55 is low, meaning you are IGA deficient. This one is not an antibody test for celaic disease per se but a measure of "total IGA" levels and if low (yours is low) it can suppress the individual antibody scores and even cause false negatives. So, yes, it definitely looks like you have celiac disease.   Do not yet begin a gluten free diet as your physician may refer you to a GI doc for an endoscopy/biopsy of the small bowel lining for confirmation of the antibody testing. This may help:

      Hi, I received my labs via email yesterday and have not heard back from my doctor yet. Can anyone tell me if these results indicate I have Celiac?      Endomysial Antibody IgAPositive  Ft-Transglutaminase (tTG) IgA6  H0-3 (U/mL) - Negative 0 - 3 - Weak Positive 4 - 10 - Positive >10 - Tissue Transglutaminase (tTG) has been identified as the endomysial antigen. Studies have demonstrated that endomysial IgA antibodies have over 99% specificity for gluten-sensitive enteropathy. FImmunoglobulin A, Qn, Serum55  L87-352 (mg/dL) Ft-Transglutaminase (tTG) IgG183  H0-5 (U/mL) - Negative 0 - 5 - Weak Positive 6 - 9 - Positive >9

      Mine is definitely triggered by inflammation and stress! I do also have arthritis in my spine, but the pain is more in my pelvic area. Im sure i have other food intolerances or other autoimmune isues but the more I focus on it and see doctor after doctor, it just gets worse.  Best thing is get of Gluten! (I also avoid lactose). Try to limit stress and anything that causes inflammation in your body.
