    Thanks for your reply. I was never told whether it was the total IgA or not. I actually did try going gluten free for a while. It was back in april and I did it for a number of weeks, possibly about 9-10 weeks. As soon as I started it and for a good while my bowel movements went from 5+ a day to once or twice, sometimes even skipping a day. I still felt sick...

    I dont know what to do anymore. For over a year Ive had stomach problems eg feeling sick, frequent bowel movements, tiredness etc. I was diagnosed with IBS, at the time I had two blood tests taken and was told my IgA was raised, but it was nothing to worry about. I have also been losing weight and an underweight. I just cant seem to gain weight, my arms,...

    I dont know what to do about my weight, I look so thin. If I dont wear anything bulky I get told (from my parents) that from looking at me from behind I look anorexic. My back and shoulders look the worse, there is literally no fat on them at all. My wrists are way too thin, it actually worries me that they are not strong enough too cope should I have a knock...

    The rash that I had confuses me because it didn't blister like DH, it was a red/orange colour over both sides of my upper chest. It would only become itchy when it began to dry out and all the skin would fall off, then the red/orange cycle would start again. At the moment this is the clearest it has been, you can only just about see the tinge of red/orange...

    I don't know what to actually do now. My appointment with the specialist is on the 14th june and I assume it is just a consultation to start with. Back in october time thats when I had a blood test and was told I didn't have coeliac disease. However on two occassions my IgA level was raised. Many months passed of feeling ill and having a lot of symtoms. Two...

    Thank you both for the replies. Im from the uk, so my tests are all on the nhs. I couldn't take it anymore, I felt really ill. So I decided to try and go gluten free. Ive not had any gluten since last week tuesday and slowly but surely there have been some changes. The rash that Ive had on my chest for over and year and didnt respond to treatments ...

    I really cant deal with this anymore. All the blood tests I have had are all coming back normal and no one seems to know what is going on. I have been feeling sick most days for the last year or so. I have bowel movements 4+ times a day usually a short while after eating. My iron levels are low, which Im on iron tablets for. Ive not had a period in the...

    I have been having problems for over a year now. Feeling sick in the evenings, usually a few hours after eating. Sometimes I can have bowel movements upto 8 times a day etc. I was diagnosed with IBS last year, but I don't agree with it. I have also had problems with my menstrual cycle. I don't have many during the space of a year. At the moment Im 5 months...

    Hi, My doctor didn't given me any information on what test is was apart from the IgA being raised. Another doctor said something about it not being a problem because my IgE level was normal and that the raised IgA was nothing to worry about. Ive also read that some people can suffer with missed periods due to celiac/gluten intolerance. In the last say...

    Thanks for the replies they have been helpful. There was something else I wanted to mention or ask about. Ive been experiencing pain in my knees when I crouch/bend down. The pain is in both knee caps and it is quite painful. Meaning I can't stay down for too long. I also experience of a regular basis a pain in the top of my shin on the bone. Sometimes it...

    Hi there, I wonder if you can help me? Ive had a problem for maybe the last 8/99 months. I was feeling sick daily for almost 8/9 months. It usualy happened in the evenings, generally about 1hr 30 mins after eating. It would last for a few hours. I went to my doctor many times who diagnosed IBS and gave me medication. I saw no improvement with it...
