You're so welcome Jewels! It's literally taken me years to rat it all out. I can't tell you how many calls & emails I made besides spending reams of hours on the computer doing the pre leg work before calls or emails. Thing is, when all is said & done, I can't definitively say whether it's oat cc or minutia of gluten OR BOTH that get me because I can't find pure flours free from any trace possibility of oats in order to test the theory. I too am leery of the mechanical sorting of oats but that's a moot point for me anyway. 

My husband uses a gluten-free pancake mix & I measure the liquid ingredients, mix them, & he takes the dry mix out onto the back porch & measures & mixes it into the wet ingredients. Once it's all wet then I can deal with it from there & pour the mix into the skillet & make his pancakes. You could do the same kind of process with the bread your hubs makes.

Here is a god send, change over to nut based flours, and buy from companies that only deal in nuts/seeds.....it is a blessing. So loving making my own waffles, pancakes, flat breads using only nut based flours....just recently perfected a Frankenstein loaf....like a combination for 3 recipes to make a nut based yeast free gum free starch free bread that can be used like bread.

That's right Ennis. I've developed an intolerance to peanuts though so now I have to find nut flours with no exposure to peanuts. It's getting trickier. I have managed to find an almond flour free of peanut exposure as well as a coconut flour.

I have posted recipes using coconut and almond flours for flat breads, cinnamon cakes, Vegan cheesy garlic knots, Vegan Cheddar biscuits, and I am working on a loaf bread right now....it is iffy with egg whites but is working great with egg yolks, using a mix of vegan and plain bread binding agents to avoid gums and starches. Very intriguing but the sugar count in it is too high for me -_- but my dad loves it and do to my cousins daughters. It is a honey and coconut based flavor.  Yeah got a very bad issues with peanuts like 4-5 years ago...like even the tiniest amounts or cc'eed products and I am praying to the porcelain god for hours. (side note I found a peanut free peanut butter artificial extract....so much fun)

      Welcome to the forum, @PA Painter! Are the oats you are using either gluten free or GFCO certified gluten free? It is not well-known but there are certain cultivars of oats that contain gluten. If you are using mainstream food industry oat brands there are two threats: 1. cross contamination from other grains containing gluten in the fields, in transport, in storage, in processing, etc. and 2. that gluten-containing cultivars of wheat were used. And, yes, sensitivity levels can change over time.

      First, the IGA score of 415 probably refers to what we call "Total IGA" rather than a specific IGA test for celiac disease per se. Physicians should always order this test along with other IGA tests to look for IGA deficiency. Total IGA checks for IGA deficiency. If you are IGA deficient, then other IGA tests will be artificially low and false negatives can result. You didn't included a scale along with the raw test score for the total IGA so I can't say for sure but it looks a little on the high side. Can you post back and include the scale for that? Or, was there a qualitative comment that came with that one like "High"? So, the long and short of this one is that it is not a test for celiac disease per se. A high value for total IGA can indicate other health problems, however and you may want to google that. Your TTG-IGA is barely out of the normal range and likely indicates some hidden gluten contamination in your life. If you eat out, you can expect to get some gluten even when you order the gluten free items from the menu since most eateries don't guard against cross contamination. They cook their gluten free food on the same surfaces and in the same pots and pans as their gluten free food and handle them with the same utensils. It is also possible to be getting some gluten from meds, pills and oral hygiene products.  But one thing I don't understand. How can you assume your test values are fluctuating when you don't mention that you have any other lab result score to compare the recent ones to? You were 10 when that was done. How long ago was that. If you haven't been tested since then, what do you have for comparison to say there is fluctuation? This might be helpful: and this:

      I have non celiac sensitivity. I used to eat oatmeal with no problem. It causes a three day nightmare just as if it were wheat now. I seem to be an extremely sensitive case though.

      Hello,  I was diagnosed around age 10 with Celiac via endoscopy. I have been on a gluten-free diet ever since and have been taking my gluten-free diet way more seriously then I used to for the last 5 years. I only eat out at dedicated gluten-free places or make food at home.     I had not had blood work done for celiac since diagnosis and I checked in with a GI doctor as my primary care isn't a specialist. I was very surprised to see my IGA was 415 and my TTG IGA was 16 (Lab said over 15 is positive for antibody). My Endomysial Antibody SCR was negative and all my vitamin levels were normal.  I am meeting with a dietician next week but I am a bit stressed with these results now wondering if I have been somehow wearing gluten without knowing or if something else is going on.   Is it normal for IGA and TTG IGA to fluctuate like this ?

      Thank you so much! I appreciate it, I was thinking the same thing so I guess it's just waiting for the biopsy results now! Thanks again!
