    Welcome! It’s great that you’re getting answers through testing, even if it feels overwhelming right now. Your results show mostly normal ranges, but the weak positive in TTG IgG could suggest gluten sensitivity or early celiac—especially since you already react to gluten. Hashimoto’s and celiac/gluten issues often overlap, so it’s smart to investigate further. Hopefully your doctor will clarify next steps (maybe an endoscopy or gluten-free trial?). Either way, listening to your body is key. Hang in there, and keep advocating for yourself—you’re already on the right track!
    The next step is likely an endoscopy to confirm celiac disease, and for that, similar to the blood panel for celiac disease, you need to be eating lots daily in the weeks leading up to it.
    Let us know what your doc says.

    Hi Cosyfeyre and welcome to the forum.
    Hashimoto's thyroiditis can cause moderately raised levels of tissue transglutaminase antibodies (as can other autoimmune and inflammatory conditions). This could explain the weak positive shown for tTG IgG. It is certainly worth following up. Some people can react to gluten without having coeliac disease, and many people react to the fructans present in grains like wheat.
