  1. All of these new tests can be so confusing. I also had the DGP tests done along with complete celiac panel. My DGP IGA was a high positive, and my TTG IGG was a weak positive. All other tests were negative. I did the endoscopy and they took 6 biopsies which were all negative. I was still put on the gluten free diet and it has made a world of difference. My...
  2. Thank you for the reply. It's just really hard when so little is known about Celiac, and it seems like unless you have a diagnosis, nobody really takes it seriously. Another concern I have is that I have two small children. My GI doc knows this, but isn't concerned with having them tested--because in his book, I do not have Celiac because the biopsies...
  3. I had the celiac blood test panel back in October (positive on Deamidated IGA--55 with over 30 considered high, and positive on TTG IGG--6 with 6-9 being moderate positive), all other blood tests came back negative. Saw a GI doc who wanted to do an endoscopy. Did that a week ago, and the 6 biopsies he took were all negative for villi damage. I got a letter...
  4. Had the full celiac blood panel done. The only two tests I tested positive on were the deamidated gliadin IGA 55 (>30 is strong positive) and t-transgluataminase IGG 6 (6-9 is weak positive). I have an endoscopy the 20th. I plan on going gluten free regardless, but am wondering if anyone has had blood results like mine and didn't show damage on endoscopy...
  5. MacieMay,I am 27. My doctor said that he doesn't do more than one test at a time. It's one or the other for now. Sounds crazy, but I just hope he finds some damage. I just want to get some answers and feel better.
  6. I had a full celiac panel done in October. Only two of the many tests were positive. Deamidated Gliadin ABS, IGA: 55 (moderate to strong positive is greater than 30) T-Transglutaminase (TTG) IGG: 6 (weak positive is 6-9) Finally got in to see a GI doc yesterday. I have tons of symptoms and have for many years (bloating, diarrhea, gall bladder...
  7. Thank you all for your comments and feedback. Sounds like the tests I had were the correct most recent tests available. I was hoping that was the case. I've spent 27 years feeling sick and it would be absolutely wonderful to get a diagnosis and validate all of my symptoms. I feel like some kind of crazy hypochondriac always going to the doctor, requesting...
  8. I recently had the celiac blood testing done. My Deamidated Anti Gliadin IGA was 55 (30+ is strong positive) and my TTG IGG was 6 (with 6-9 being weak positive). Every other test (and they did the full panel) was negative. I can't get in with a GI doctor unti Dec. 1st. I've been researching my results online, and have found several sites that say...
  9. Thank you both so much! All of this is so new to me and it's all so confusing at first! I think I will stick with eating gluten for now, and see the GI doc about a biopsy. It's funny how now that I know what might be causing my symptoms, those doughnuts, cereals, breads, just don't look quite as delicisous.
  10. I'm new to the board, just got my blood test results back yesterday. My family doctor isn't familiar with Celiac disease, looked at my blood tests and said she was suspicious foe Celiac Disease, and referred me to a gastrointestinal specialist. I can't get in to see the specialist until the 1st of December and it's driving me crazy not knowing what these...
