Question
endomys is, aka, "EMA" and is a celiac disease antibody test. It was negative. gliaiga is, aka, IGP-IGA, is also a celiac disease antibody test. It was negative. TRANSGLUA is, aka, TTG-IGA, another celiac disease antibody test. It was in normal range. tranigg is, aka, TTG-IGG, still another celiac disease antibody test. It was high, or above... -

I'm 70, had gut issues my whole life. 15 years ago my grandchild was diagnosed with celiac. Since I had a constant either constipation or diarrhea and what the doctors thought was fibromyalgia and other issues I decided to see what happens if I quit gluten. I got a lot better. BTW, 30 years ago I had head & neck cancer, the radiation destroyed my... -
- Tuba1971 replied to Pat B's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications5FDA says that most drugs are gluten-free???
I had been glutened from somewhere since I pretty much make all my food from scratch. I had to have an endoscopy which should gluten damage, had blood work which also indicated high gluten. 4 years ago when I had these tests my gluten levels were all in good alignment. It comes down to my levothyroxin accord brand that must have gluten in it. I switched to... -

That somes it up. It is worth mentioning GliadinX does not reduce symptoms for me at all. I also react to banana, avacado, cabbage, Oatmeal, and pecans among other things. If anyone else out there is like me, I had to eliminate gluten and all processed food before I could start to heal. I wish I had know this a long time ago. Thanks for the acknowledgement... -

Thanks for sharing this detailed explanation. It’s really helpful to understand the differences between celiac disease and gluten sensitivity. I had no idea that gluten withdrawal could feel similar to addiction, and it’s great to have that context when considering how it affects people. It’s also good to know how important it is to continue eating glute...

It was high, or above normal range. immaqnt is, I believe, what is also known as "total IGA" and at 160, looks to be in normal range since it wasn't flagged otherwise. This is a test for IGA deficiency. If someone is IGA deficient then all other IGA test scores cannot be trusted as being accurate. You are not IGA deficient. Here is a primer explaining the various tests that can be used to...

I'm 70, had gut issues my whole life. 15 years ago my grandchild was diagnosed with celiac. Since I had a constant either constipation or diarrhea and what the doctors thought was fibromyalgia and other issues I decided to see what happens if I quit gluten. I got a lot better. BTW, 30 years ago I had head & neck cancer, the radiation destroyed my thyroid. I suffer from chronic fatigue and have to take synthroid. A few months ago, I bought a bottle of Ice water, I was thirsty and all they had at the motel was this. It said sugar free and had a bunch of vitamins. I couldn't read the fine print so I thought it's safe, so I bought several bottles (it had sucralose and maltodextrin in it). I thought one...

It comes down to my levothyroxin accord brand that must have gluten in it. I switched to synthroid 3 weeks ago and have been doing much better and am able to sleep at night again.

I had no idea that gluten withdrawal could feel similar to addiction, and it’s great to have that context when considering how it affects people. It’s also good to know how important it is to continue eating gluten for accurate testing. I’ll keep all of this in mind!
