Hi Everyone - Here is my background - Terrible digestive issues for my entire life... and with family members who had similar dysfunction, I grew up thinking C/D, bloating, gas, pain, depression, everything else that goes along with this was "normal". Also, my family is of the "what doesn't kill you makes you stronger" and the "don't be such a hypocondriac...

Hi everyone - Thanks for the replies. I was gluten free for about 2 months before I took the tests - and I really did the other tests on a whim - I had no idea those foods were making me sensitive as well... it was quite shocking to see elevated levels to EVERYTHING I tested for. A number of questions - hopefully someone will be able to answer...

Hi Everyone - I got my results today - Am I sensitive to everything?? Do my Egg, Yeast and Milk values warrant an elimination diet for these items too? Your help is appreciated - I am seeing my diet choices get very small! Fecal Anti-gliadin IgA: 122 Units Fecal Anti-tissue Transglutaminase IgA: 29 Units Quantitative Microscopic Fecal...

Thanks again! I will call to make sure - I really appreciate everyone's help!

Thanks for the reply and the info. I thought that Enterolab did test for the antibodies... I'm doing the full panel PLUS the gene test. Can someone let me know if there is a difference between the antibody tests, and why Enterolab would recommend NOT changing your diet or doing a gluten challenge prior to the full test? Thanks again!

Hi Everyone - First of all, SO happy to have found this site. I am proceeding with Enterolab testing after years of "IBS" diagnoses and living with all of the symptoms of Celiac... and growing up in a family of people with "weak stomachs". I have been gluten-free for about 2 - 3 weeks now and feel SO much better that I know I'll be gluten-free...
