Is diagnosis based on Anti-Endomisial Antibody IgA and IgG enough?

A couple of months ago I was very sick, had problems with my throat so the doctor prescribed antibiotics.

Before that I had some problems with my stomach, but it was just a Dysbiosis and doctors always treated it without problems.

After taking the antibiotics everything went to hell, Dysbiosis was back.

Prescriptions were working, but if I was stopping to take them I was suffering from diarrhea and gases, So my last doctor asked me to take Anti-Endomisial Antibody IgA and Anti-Endomisial Antibody IgG tests.

Both came back as positive 1:10.

Based on this my doctor told me that I have Celiac Desease.

I am on my 3rd day of Gluten Free diet, still in shock. My country is not very developed and to find gluten-free food is practically impossible, anything you find is so expensive, that you need to be rich to buy it. But this is another story.

Are these tests enough to tell that I have Cardial Desease?

Update: My doctor told me to go on gluten free diet and after 1-2 weeks my symptoms will be gone and after 2 months I will again pass the same tests to see if the results have changed. After the results are negative I will start eating gluten food for some time and we will see if the symptoms come back or not and if the antibodies are back or not by blood test. Is this a good practice?

      Does anyone here also have Afib

      My husband has had occasional A fib since 1986. He spent years on Digoxin and Quinidine, with no reduction in the number of episodes. Then, he was put on Verapamil as a pill in the pocket and did fine for about 5 years until it stopped working for him. Then he went on Flecainide as a pill in the pocket. His first 2 cardiologists had him on a "heart healthy...

      Getting sick much more often

      Yes, zinc is very important to immune system and health. @Sanna King, how are you doing? I got really frustrated reading labels! On the Autoimmune Protocol Diet I don't have to. The AIP diet includes meat and veggies and some fruit. No processed foods. No dairy, no nuts, no nightshades (tomatoes, potatoes, peppers and eggplant). The AIP diet...

      Getting sick much more often

      I had the exact opposite thing happen. Prior to my diagnosis and introduction of the gluten-free diet, I was sick all the time. My file at the ENT was so thick because it was one upper respiratory infection, one sinus infection, one ear infection after another. Year after year after year. I have only been sick once in 18 years and I know exactly who gave...

      Duodenum biopsy result confusion

      Hello, I hope I am posting this in the correct space, so apologies if not! After my last two endoscopies (2019 and 2024), I received the following comment in my report: Duodenal biopsy: Duodenal mucosa with mild intra-epithelial lymphocytosis in the presence of normal villous architecture. Comment: Findings are non-specific. They...

      I had the exact opposite thing happen.  Prior to my diagnosis and introduction of the gluten-free diet, I was sick all the time.  My file at the ENT was so thick because it was one upper respiratory infection, one sinus infection, one ear infection after another.  Year after year after year.  I have only been sick once in 18 years and I know exactly who gave me the infection back in 2012.  It was a coronavirus cold.  I was sick for 6 weeks and lost my sense of smell and taste for over 2 years.  I had every test in the book and took boatloads of prescriptions to try to get it back.  It was not until my chiropractor suggested I take zinc that my senses started coming back.  I have been exposed to lab confirmed...

Comment: Findings are non-specific. They can be seen in coeliac disease, peptic or medication induced injury and H.pylori infection among others. Correlation with clinical findings and results of serological studies is recommended. I didn't have an ulcer and crohns disease was not mentioned to me. For the past few years I have had on and off digestive issues (gas, mild diarrhea, lower abdominal...

      DR1-DQ5 neurological symptoms

      By Murilo P · Posted

      It has been a while and I would like to post an update. The hallucinations are completely gone. Thanks to one bottle of B1 as benfotiamine and one of B3 as niacin, both taken together. I will buy more. The other symptoms are still being treated. Now I can already affirm that the symptoms are part of Borderline Personality Disorder. Yet I do have hopes that we will achieve the remission of BPD symptoms over the next couple of years. I think her issues come from this chain of events: Nutritional deficiencies at birth, due to being twin and having low birth weight. Low levels of Omega-3 during pregnancy and first years resulting in weak HPA axis development (predisposition for BPD). Consumption...

      Hi, My six year old has been complaining of tingling in the legs off late. This used to be pretty common thing with her pre-diagnosis and a couple of weeks after the diagnosis as well. And now it is back again. I am not sure if it's a glutening symptom, or she could be deficient in something. I got her Pure Encapsulations' multivitamin capsule, which she is ok taking, but she began reacting to cellulose in the capsule. I don't know if I can just break the capsule and she could drink it in a smoothie. I haven't tried that yet, so do not know whether it'll be palatable to her.  If any of you know of a CGF multivitamin that do not contain any gums and are preferably free of citric acid, I'd greatly...
