Ok i have been dealing with this crazy breakouts for about 1year and half. None of that doctors can figure out whats causeing md to break out. I have figured out that im dealing with dermatitis herpetiformis, i have stop eatting stuff with gluten and the itching and the burning and the blistering has gone down. Im still having smaller out breaks but i was having break outs all over my body. Its really hard going gluten free. I need help tring to find a doctor or type of docter to contact to get diagnosis or if theres some kind of test ive been diagnosed. With 5 different diseases and i took meds and no luck. Also i saw that some people also dont eat or drink milk products when they r on a gluten free diet. Is that important not to eat or drink milk products? Im so frusterated. Im itchy all the time and my face is horridle looking sometimes because the blisters turn in to scabs and than im scared to go into public because of the stares. I have been gluten free for about two weeks and it has helped alot but if i mess up and eat something with gluten my skin goes crazy. Help please

You need to read this entire thread all the way through & read the links contained in it also. That will tell you what you are asking & about the tests & about why the tests won't work for you now because you are already gluten free.

      Test results

      By Joyes · Posted

      Can you please educate me regarding my recent test results. Ive been gluten free for years. Recent deamidated gliadin Abs, IgA result is 0.9/‘not detected’ but deamidated gliadin Abs, IgG is 26.6/abnormal high. (Normal range is <15.0) So…what can this indicate?

      Abscesses on legs

      @LookingForAnswers101Ooh I can also eat coconut, and probably because the ingredients are so highly processed I can eat gluten free bread even though it contains ingredients I can’t usually tolerate. I’m currently trying high lectin foods that've been through a pressure cooker but not much luck so far, pressure cooked mashed potatoes are fine but needs to be cooked completely soft. Hopefully you’ll have more luck than me.

      Does this definitely suggest Coeliac Disease?

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      The positive Anti-deamidated Gliadin IgA result (12 U/ml) suggests possible celiac disease, but it is not definitive on its own, as this marker can also be elevated in other conditions or even in non-coeliac gluten sensitivity (NCGS). Do you know if they also ran a tTg-Iga test? This is the definitive test for celiac disease. The absence of classical symptoms like significant bloating or pain upon gluten reintroduction, along with your history of IBS and sensitivity to legumes, complicates the picture (legumes can be cross-contaminated with wheat). While celiac disease remains a possibility, other conditions like NCGS, leaky gut, or additional food intolerances could also explain your symptoms. A biopsy would provide more conclusive evidence for celiac disease, but for that you need to be eating lots of gluten daily in the weeks leading up to the endoscopy. In the meantime, adopting a gluten-free diet and supporting gut health with supplements (e.g., probiotics, L-glutamine) may help reduce inflammation and symptoms, but it’s important to consult a healthcare professional to tailor your approach and rule out other underlying issues. This article might be helpful. It breaks down each type of test, and what a positive results means in terms of the probability that you might have celiac disease. One test that always needs to be done is the IgA Levels/Deficiency Test (often called "Total IGA") because some people are naturally IGA deficient, and if this is the case, then certain blood tests for celiac disease might be false-negative, and other types of tests need to be done to make an accurate diagnosis. The article includes the "Mayo Clinic Protocol," which is the best overall protocol for results to be ~98% accurate.
