I recently went gluten-free and oat-free (45 days ago), I tested negative last year but thought I would try gluten free for my anxiety which has been getting quite bad. I have been keeping a diary and I haven't noticed much of a difference being off the gluten. Well I tried to eat gluten free oats...

We did the follow up blood work on Friday and the test result for the TTG IGA was 2 (positive is over 20). She had been eating gluten for 6 months at this time. I'm very happy she doesn't have celiac but am disappointed we don't have any answers for her anxiety, irritability, low iron and constipation...

I have an update, we decided to go with the doctor and test after 2 weeks being back on a heavy gluten diet. I asked for the results when I went to see the nurse for another issue. Doctor has said they are "inconclusive" and is sending us to a specialist. I wasn't allowed to take the results... -

my doctor just ordered the TTG-IGA, I called the clinic and it looks like the ones I am missing are Total IGA and IGG. The test names are super confusing, maybe I can just get her to change it to "celiac panel" and that would cover everything? I asked her about genetic testing and she had no idea... -
