      Progesterone pills - are they gluten free??

      By Mettedkny · Posted

      So far the numbers, and references that I have are: Gliadin (Deamidated)Ab (IgA) <15.0 Antibody not detected > or = 15.0 Antibody detected Gliadin (Deamidated)Ab (IgG) <15.0 Antibody not detected > or = 15.0 Antibody detected now waiting on the Tissue Transglutaminaseab, IgA

      No, if you are IGA deficient, your IGA celiac antibody test numbers will be lower than they ought to be so they should not be relied upon if they are in the normal range.

      So sorry - just replied a minute ago. Not sure if I ever had a total IgA test done for deficiency, but since I have had perfect numbers in the past, wouldn't it be redundant?

      I agree with Scott. This same question has been asked many times on the forum and for the reasons Scott stated the consensus is that there it is very unlikely that cross contamination is occurring in these scenarios. Hey, looking forward to hearing back about your igg and iga numbers. We would need the reference ranges as well as different labs used different reference ranges for negative vs. or normal vs. high.

      Thank you for your message. Still waiting for the ttg numbers to come back. So far I know that it were my Gliadin IgG number and the IgA number that was elevated, and the IgG number by a LOT. My numbers have been consistently "perfect" for 16 year, and just recently (in the past 9 months) have become wonky... I def agree Scott - just grasping for straws (and not the wheat ones lol). Trying to look for ANY variable that might be the reason for my wonky numbers.
