      I'm looking into it. I have several quite low vitamin results which I believe may be from malabsorption. B12, ferritin, folate, vit d all very low. Re-occuring mouth issues, gut issues.

      Have you been diagnosed with celiac disease or are you looking into it?
    • Toaster
      Thank you. There is no reference range mentioned unfortunately.

      Welcome to the forum, @Toaster! EMA is a celiac disease specific antibody test. It was one of the first antibody tests developed for celiac disease but it has fallen out of favor in recent years. It is an excellent test but expensive to administer as it requires the use of animal organ tissue (esophagus I think) in order to be run. Since then, a less expensive test known as the tTG-IGA has been developed that essentially accomplishes the same thing. Your test result of 1.24 g/L is meaningless unless you can also supply the reference range values used by the lab. Different labs use different reference ranges for negative vs. positive. There is no standard. The EMA test is discussed in this article along with other celiac disease antibody tests:
