Can Anyone Piece Together This Haplotype Data Better Than Myself?

Hello again all,

 

And Happy Holidays!

 

l did 23andMe reports recently (ancestry only). From what l've read about the health reports, there are more accurate services and tools you can use with the raw data, so l didn't purchase the somewhat pricey health report from 23andMe :P

 

l used some free services and did pay 20.00 for this NutraHacker report. Not a diagnostic tool but at least covers HLA types.

 

l'm still gluten free but taking a break from seeking a diagnosis with doctors, was wondering if this information means much.

 

l got as far as understanding that the pair HLAdq 2.2 (both snps?) are detected in most patients. So l'm homozygous for one of the snps but the other is not detected at all, not making me part of this haplotype.

 

Anything else l should know? l'm assuming my 'risk' is on the low end with the 9.1 percent DQ2.5, in the table.

 

Thanks!

I can not contribute to the 23 and Me test interpretation, but I will state that some 35% of the population is known to carry the genes that COULD develop into celiac disease.  Only a tiny fraction actually go on to develop it.  The gene test is primarily used to exclude a diagnosis.  For  example, my family members could take the gene test.  If they do not have the celiac genes, they will most likely never have to worry about getting celiac disease.  They will not have to take an antibodies test ever again.  Genetic testing can be expensive and might not be covered under health insurance.  It can be useful in some cases for to help with a diagnosis, but that is not common.  

For my kid?  No.  I do NOT want her to have a genetic test.  Why?  What if she is positive (good chances that she would be)?  Now a  company might deny her health or life insurance.  Again, her risk may be low, but do insurance companies care?  I have been denied in the past for health insurance just for having Hashimoto’s even though my doctors wrote letters telling them that my health was great and I was competing in triathalons.    I am not giving any ammunition to my kid’s health insurer in light of our current U.S.  unstable healthcare insurance.  Just something to think about.....

      Hello @A Wilson, Glad you found us. There is your answer. The results from the tests are just more data to the puzzle.

      Is it gluten?

      Hi @Woodster991, You do need to see a health professional to make sure it is not appendicitis. Rebound tenderness, fever. Is it gluten? Yes. It is also serious vitamin and mineral deficiency. Either by Celiac Disease malabsortion, food avoidance or just not getting enough. Consider significantly increasing your intake of vitamin...

      I too have blood tests booked a Wilson and was told it's ok that I've been gluten free since for over 6 months they have also put  me in for a fecal test for calprotein and a milk allergy has I had to  stop lactose too and a IBS blood test I didn't even know you could test for IBS ? I'm going Tuesday but since reading on here I'm thinking now why bother I've been suffering for that long has I can remember I've reached out to docters since I was in my 20s im now Immy 50s was told IBS and health aniexty was my problem what prompted me to go back again this time was the long list of problems I've also had which they also know about but never said any were connected I've had bad bouts that put me in bed for days I cut carbs out years ago and saw a difference but uneducated just thout see it must be a better way of eating didn't realise it was actually showing me to cut gluten out I've been back and forth to docters that much they have put me down has I have health aniexty causing it in a nut shell it's in my head yet over the years I've had sickness medication scans over my kidneys my liver my tummy for the pain flu like symptoms were put down to my bad rhinitis hair shredding was put down to stress vitamin d deficiency put down to food my 3 herniated discs degenerative and slight sclorocis believe it or not was my posture achy legs syndrome and bad blood circulation to my low mobility threw my back I can go on and on what they tryed to tell me I got that bad i realised it's maybe more than IBS and yes I do suffer aniexty but the way they have made me feel like it's all in my head is time to stop because cutting out gluten and lactose had been the best thing I have done I only went back because I was a little worried after struggling for so long if I had damaged my bowel i just hoped I would get help threw tests sorry for long post but you are not alone with the worry of the test results but if you know yourself then you be your docter and help yourself too but always push for help if   you have abdominal pain it could be other things too it took me 15 years to get a MRI for my back you can imagine my thouts Wen I got my results that it wasn't just my posture had I'd been told even unable to walk was my fault lol  so if you are struggling seek out help anyway you can and be consistent till you get answers 🤗

      Hi @Woodster991, You do need to see a health professional to make sure it is not appendicitis.  Rebound tenderness, fever.   Is it gluten?  Yes.  It is also serious vitamin and mineral deficiency.  Either by Celiac Disease malabsortion, food avoidance or just not getting enough.  Consider significantly increasing your intake of vitamin D, B1, Choline, Iodine, B2, B3, B5, B12.  The vitamin D test, (25(OH)D, is simple and accurate. Whole Milk yogurt and berries to populate your gut with benificial bacteria.  I drink Red Bull for energy.  Eat food low in omega 6 fatty acids. The ideal ratio is less than 3 omega 6 to 1 omega 3.  For some, the Modern American Diet is estimated to be more than 14:1.  Very inflammatory.  Wheat flour is 22:1.  Grass fed milk is 1:1. Whether Celiac Disease (1% of the population) or Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity (10% of the population) would take blood tests and endoscopy. It is either that, or you have managed to contract 6 or 7 different diseases at the same time. You don't need a doctor's permission to not eat gluten anymore than you would to eat Chinese food.
