ARCHIVED Blood Test Confusion
dhiltonlittle replied to dhiltonlittle's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
thanks for the reply, i guess it would be mainly for my sanity/confirmation! i'm really looking forward to trying out the diet hoping that i feel better. i was mainly curious why the two different labs yielded two totally different results. is it common for that to happen? -
ARCHIVED Blood Test Confusion
dhiltonlittle posted a topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
hey! i have a quick question about the celiac panel. i was tested once and got back a positive gliadin AB (IGA) which was 32 with a reference range of <11 u/mL. i have since gotten an endoscopy and am waiting on the results from that. Since then, i have gone to my thyroid doctor who also did some tests and the IGA came back negative at 5. these were... -
ARCHIVED Gliadin Ab Iga
dhiltonlittle replied to dhiltonlittle's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
Anybody have any thoughts? Why would one gliadin antibody IgA be at 32 and the "Deam. Gliadin Pep. IgA" read 5? are they two completely different things? Two different labs did the testing which were about a month apart. I had my thyroid doc retest while I was giving blood (which was the one that read 5) but she didn't seem to know too much about it... -

ARCHIVED Gliadin Ab Iga
dhiltonlittle replied to dhiltonlittle's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
thanks, also, what exactly is Deam. Gliadin Pep. IgA and IgG? is it the same as what i mentioned previously? my thyroid doctor did a test of these and they were in the normal range. just curious if they are the same thing and if so, why the # would be so different. my Deam IgA was 5 and Deam IgG was 1. -
ARCHIVED Gliadin Ab Iga
dhiltonlittle posted a topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
i just got an endoscopy done and also a full blood panel. i'm waiting to hear back the results. my food allergist found that my gliadin ab (iga) was at 32 with the reference range <11 u/mL. i'm feeling awful. is it safe to say that there is definitely some kind of gluten allergy going on or could this be something else? thanks for any tips before i can... -

thanks for the link! i'm going to have the endoscopy done this friday and will see if he can do the blood test while i'm there. what would my level of iga gliadin (32) indicate if it were not celiac? is that abnormally high? what else could it indicate? sorry, i really know nothing about it! -

hey, glad i ran across this forum. looks like a great group and some good info! so i've been really sick for the last 5 months or so. it seems to have happened (kicked in) after having a very bad flu and taking a 5 day antibiotic although it could just be a coincidence. most of the symptoms are gi related. lots of cramping, stomach noises, nausea (but...
