  1. My doctor referred me for a biopsy but the soonest I can be seen is the end of April. sigh. I guess I just get to wait until then to find out if it's really celiac. Are there other things that can trigger a higher IgG number?
  2. I got the results in the mail. Here is what it says: Celiac gene pairs present? Yes Celiac disease possible. Consider biopsy. Gliadin (deamidated) Ab, IgA, S <10.0 Ref <20 negative Gliadin (deamidated) Ab, IgG, S 25.9 Ref <20 negative. Interpretation: weak positive (20-30) Immunoglobulin A (IgA) ...
  3. Thanks! I feel like my doctor knows very little about these tests and I had to tell him what should be tested, so I'm not absolutely positive on the results as I've only talked to him on the phone. He is sending me a copy of the results though. The initial test that came back negative was a "Celiac Disease Cascade IgA" which lists Immunoglobulin A, S at...
  4. Hi, I had posted about a month ago and since then have had more testing done. My initial test, requested by me, was just an IgA which came back negative at 172 out of a ref range of 61-356. I then requested further testing since I was still getting no other answers and they ran the genetic typing which was positive. So after that, they ran more testing...
  5. My doctor finally returned my call and I told him all these values that my test should have yielded. He said he would talk to the pathologist about it. Did everyone have these initial tests done by their reg doctor or a gastroenterologist? I'm wondering if I. Should just ask for a referral to one.
  6. That's all there was. The 172, the reference range, and the comments.
  7. That is exactly what I have. It is the lab results sent to my clinic from Mayo clinic where the test was completed. The quote I put in #8 is what was written in the comments section on the results.
  8. I don't know. Apparently that's all that was tested. The notes say that celiac is unlikely but that 10% of people will show a false negative. It says "if celiac is highly clinically suspected, consider HLA-DQ typing." Thanks mayo clinic?
  9. Updated post with test results. Immunoglobulin A, S value 172
  10. Thank you. I will call my clinic tomorrow and figure out what they tested. In the meantime, should I be avoiding gluten or should I try keeping it in my diet in case there is need for more testing. I have been attempting to keep gluten and dairy out of my diet for three days now.
  11. Hi, I am brand new here and hoping that some of you might be able to help me out with what to do. So my backstory. I've never had any troubles with food growing up. I've always been slightly underweight, but so is my grandmother and I look a lot like her. In October, I was training for a half marathon and after a ten mile run, I was just wiped out like...
