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 yo, i still eat a bit of dairy and a fair amount of processed foods. I wonder if I have sibo... I will look into that
-
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...
-
I only eat certifed gluten-free products but a lot of which are processed. Could there be trace gluten in those or is that very unlikely?
-
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...

Thank you for the clarifcation, how can I get to the bottom of this as to why they may be elevated even on a super strict gluten-free diet?
-
Does this mean those could raise IgA and TTG IgA in celiacs?
-
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.
-
Any specific tests you would recommend to check for other allergens or issues ?

IGA and TTG IGA Levels
thejayland10 replied to thejayland10's topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease
Thank you, i have been gluten free for 15 years and my TTG IGA was 16.2 and baseline is 15 according to the lab. The IGA was 415. -
I am taking my celiac a lot more seriously now and want to avoid chances of cross contact, does anyone have any good ground turkey brands or chicken brands they can recommend ?
-
thank you for the insight Thank a small elevation can be due to this or is it more likely to be cross contamination ?
-
For those of you who have had celiac for a long time what do your IGA and TTG IGA Levels usually show on follow up blood work ?
-
Hello Everyone, I used to be a lot less strict with my gluten-free diet. I have always eaten gluten-free but never only got gluten-free-certified or labeled products but the last few years I have been taking it a lot more seriously and only eat at dedicated gluten-free restraunts or things labeled gluten-free. A recent blood test of mine...
-
You are right, I just feel I may have not been on top of it and Ive caused damage for years without knowing. Seems like nothing though?
-
Sometimes I have a bit of stomach, discomfort, anxiety, tiredness, and soreness but nothing that stops by normal day to day activities. I work a ton and am very active so likely it is related to that and not my celiac but unsure with everyone's symptoms and stories I see online. I will definitely start doing this every year from now on. Could one crumb...
-
Thank you for the response and info! You are right, I do not know if they are fluctuating, what I should have said was is this sort of test normal and common for celiacs who are even on a gluten-free diet? I was very surprised to see these results as I am very careful and only eat out at dedicated gluten-free places or make food at home with gluten...

Hello, I was diagnosed around age 10 with Celiac via endoscopy. I have been on a gluten-free diet ever since and have been taking my gluten-free diet way more seriously then I used to for the last 5 years. I only eat out at dedicated gluten-free places or make food at home. I had not had blood work done for celiac since diagnosis and I checked...
