Cyrex results, igg?

I've suspected for a while something is screwing with my body. I've had some geographic tongue that started about a year ago. On and off unexplained fatigue, etc. Went through a gambit of testing over the years but nothing came up.

Recently had the Cyrex array 3 done. Results were all normal except elevated IGG for wheat and wheat germ Agglutinin. I've read conflicting things on IGG, but mostly that it doesn't mean anything. Could it just be because I ingested wheat before the testing was done? Might eliminating wheat still be worth it?

Wheat IgG 1.92 0.3-1.5
Wheat IgA 0.52 0.1-1.2
Wheat Germ Agglutinin IgG 2.20 0.4-1.3
Wheat Germ Agglutinin IgA 0.27 0.2-1.1
Native & Deamidated Gliadin 33 IgG 0.42 0.2-1.2
Native & Deamidated Gliadin 33 IgA 0.31 0.1-1.1
Alpha Gliadin 17-mer IgG 0.29 0.1-1.5
Alpha Gliadin 17-mer IgA 0.25 0.1-1.1
Gamma Gliadin 15-mer IgG 0.62 0.5-1.5
Gamma Gliadin 15-mer IgA 0.37 0.1-1.0
Omega Gliadin 17-mer IgG <0.30 0.3-1.2
Omega Gliadin 17-mer IgA 0.14 0.1-1.2
Glutenin 21-mer IgG 0.96 0.1-1.5
Glutenin 21-mer IgA 0.22 0.1-1.3
Gluteomorphin + Prodynorphin IgG 0.33 0.3-1.2
Gluteomorphin + Prodynorphin IgA 0.11 0.1-1.2
Gliadin-Transglutaminase Complex IgG <0.30 0.3-1.4
Gliadin-Transglutaminase Complex IgA 0.24 0.2-1.5
Transglutaminase-2 IgG 0.72 0.3-1.6
Transglutaminase-2 IgA 0.63 0.1-1.6
Transglutaminase-3 IgG 0.88 0.2-1.6
Transglutaminase-3 IgA 0.29 0.1-1.5
Transglutaminase-6 IgG 0.45 0.2-1.5
Transglutaminase-6 IgA 0.20 0.1-1.5

I've lost some of my sense of taste due most likely to zinc deficiency from not eating beef for a couple of years. Zinc supplement doesn't seem to help, but eating .5 to 1 lb of beef per day definitely does help. I noticed a positive change within days of eating beef. I don't know if your diet includes beef, but if it doesn't there's a reason for you.

If your concerned on wheat/gluten, see about getting a actual celiac blood test done, you have to be eating wheat for the test to be accurate. After that you will need the follow up endoscope and biopsy. Open Original Shared Link

Thought cyrex is very similar to a celiac testing panel?

Mostly I was just curious if IGG test results are worth anything as an indicator. I've read they can just indicate that you're actually tolerate or have recent eaten the foods (I was prior to the test).

I don't think they currently do medically approved Celiac testing ( last I heard).

      Has anyone had Steatorrhea (oily/fatty poop) as a temporary glutening symptom or should I be concerned I've introduced chronic gluten somewhere (like in meds)? I haven't gotten Steatorrhea since before I went gluten free. However, I moved in the past few weeks and haven't been as careful - I've eaten at restauraunts with cross contamination but only experienced minor symptoms like headache. The past week, I ate only gluten free food at home except I went to Red Robin and got fries (told them gluten-free; allergy). The next day I had Steatorrhea and the day after that.   I know it's a symptom of malabsorption so I was wondering if it was the kind of thing that could be caused by one event or if it was due to a more chronic issue. Of course I will speak to a GI but I recently moved and need to find one.   Thank you for any info

      A relative has opened another door for me on this issue -- the possibility of menopause raising HDL. Most studies suggest that menopause decreases HDL-C, however, one study found that often it's increased. "Surprisingly, HDL cholesterol was higher (p < 0.001) in postmenopausal women by 11%. Further, the number of women who had low HDL cholesterol was higher in pre vs. postmenopausal women. The range of ages were 26–49 years for pre-menopausal and 51–74 years for postmenopausal women. "This interesting finding has also been observed by other investigators. It is possible that the observed increase in HDL-C in postmenopausal women could be due to a protective mechanism to counterbalance the deleterious effects of biomarkers associated with menopause. However, further studies are needed to confirm this theory. And to the point raised earlier about functionality: "...some patients with elevated HDL-C concentrations could remain at risk for coronary events if HDL is not functional and some authors have suggested that this could be the case for menopausal women." Postmenopausal Women Have Higher HDL and Decreased Incidence of Low HDL than Premenopausal Women with Metabolic Syndrome. By no means to I think this is definitive, rather food for thought.

      Yes, lots of delicious things have barley malt. It also doesn't include rye. And there are a number of grains commonly cross contaminated such as oats.   Additionally, wheat allergies are different from gluten allergies as wheat allergies are a reaction to a wheat protein. So something *could* contain wheat gluten without causing a wheat allergic response (though realistically,  I don't know how likely that is to occur)

      Although it is true that FDA regulations don't require gluten to be included in allergy info, it does require wheat and ingredients made from wheat to be listed. Of course, that doesn't preclude gluten from barley being found in a product.

      I had a lot of weird/random symptoms for a few months after going gluten free. But eventually they evened out and I felt SO MUCH BETTER. The person above wrote a very detailed message that looks helpful. I'd add don't forget to check for gluten in places like medicine. Advil liquigels, for example, have gluten. It's very frustrating trying to figure out if things are gluten free as us law doesn't require it to be declared. The only labeling rule is that if the product says gluten free, it must have less than 20ppm gluten.
