The blood tests (all of them) include: Anti-gliadin antibodies (AGA) both IgA and IgG Anti-endomysial antibodies (EMA) - IgA Anti-tissue transglutaminase antibodies (tTG) - IgA Total IgA level. Request that the possible DH be biopsied. Open...

    Definitely need to get a copy of your results so that you can tell which tests were run.

    Gluten free to me. I'd use it. FYI-by law, that product would be required to list wheat.

    Keep in mind that the endoscopy also looks for other things, besides Celiac, that may be occurring.

    Just wanted to welcome you to the board! I certainly hope that you find some answers. Don't go gluten free until you have completed any testing that may occur. Even if you receive negative results, some still try the diet and see improvement. The blood tests for Celiac are: Anti-gliadin antibodies (AGA) both IgA and IgG Anti-endomysial antibodies...

    In order to do an effective gluten challenge, you'll need to go 100% gluten free. Gluten "lite", cheating, etc. negates the benefits of gluten free. If she is going to be tested, she needs to be eating gluten for an extended period of time. It might be harder to go gluten free, then re-introduce gluten and eat gluten long enough for the tests to be...

    happygirl posted a topic in Doctors

    Are you looking for a dietician that is knowledgable about Celiac? A Celiac dietician has compiled a list of dieticians on her website. If you know of a good one, they may want to contact this dietician, Tricia Thompson, to have them listed. Hope this helps those looking for dieticians that are familiar with Celiac. The rest of her website has good...

    Celiac does not affect what blood you should receive. None of the leading Celiac organizations ever discuss this, so its not a concern. Best of luck!

    This struck me as absolutely hilarious.

    Progresso and Betty Crocker are both GM products. Open Original Shared Link At one point, a couple of years ago, when I was looking for a clam chowder, the thick and hearty was gluten-free and the traditional clearly had wheat listed (not hidden). Its apparently changed and many have said that both are now gluten-free!

    Quaker Oats are not safe.
