All of my other labs are normal though, CBC, metabolic, dexa scan, vitamin levels, ema, giladin peptide igg iga, etc.
Could other allergies like corn or yeast raise this? Should I have allergy testing done for other things?
I do not take medications and my vitamins are certified gluten-free. Is it common for people to have slightly elevated ttg iga even when on gluten-free diet ?>
Is it common for people to have slightly elevated ttg iga even when on gluten-free diet ?
thank you, i have been doing that the last few weeks and will continue to do so. I had not had my ttg iga checked since I was diagnosed 14 yrs ago so I am not sure if they ever dropped below the 15-20 range.
all my other labs are completely normal but I am concerned that this may be signs of refractor celiac or something else since I'm so careful...
Hello,
I have seen numerous doctors and they can't seem to pin point why my ttg iga is still mildly elevated at 16-20 even after being gluten free for over 10 years. I follow a very strict diet and don't eat out. All my other blood tests such as ema, DGP IGA / IGG, vitamin levels, CBC, and dexa scan were normal.
That is a very good point I do not know if they truly ever went down. With my nutrient levels all being good, CBC, metabolic panel I assumed everything was fine over the years. Now Im worried this is refractory celiac or something else
interesting I did not know that was that common or could take that long. When I was diagnosed 15 yrs ago I was told just follow gluten-free diet and follow up with primary care doctor (who never checked celiac panel again). I felt way better and all the major symptoms went away. It wasn't until recently at 25 (14 yrs after diagnosis) that I thought to follow...
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
my ttg iga was 16.5 3 months ago and jumped to 30.1 last week. my iga was 415 and jumped to 455. This was done at a different lab though than the first test for ttg iga one had units as ml the other as cu... so not sure if they really jumped as much as shown. i am so strict on my diet and have no clue why this is happening
thank you for attaching...
Hello!
Yes I do have dairy
no I don't think so but I have seasonal allergies
not really very minor if I do which worsen with stress
Yes I do eat gluten-free processed food
Vitamin D level 30
My TTG IgA and IGA are elevated mildly, right at borderline positive,e but my EMA is negative. All my vitamin levels are normal as well as cbc and metabolic panel. What is the likely cause of this? I have been on gluten-free diet for 15 yrs nearly.
