Inconclusive results

My doctor ran some celiac screening tests because my son *might* have latent celiac disease. After she got my results, she referred me to a GI to follow up because she called the results inconclusive. I can't get any appt until September and I don't if I should go back to my pcp and have her run a full celiac panel. What are your thoughts?

Below are my results

GLIADIN (DEAMIDATED) AB,IGG  3  Reference Range: <20 UNITS

GLIADIN (DEAMIDATED) AB,IGA  28 H Reference Range: <20 UNITS

TISSUE TRANSGLUTAM AB (IGA) <1  Reference Range: <4 U/ML

RETICULIN IGA SCREEN Negative  Reference Range: Negative

You have the positive on the DGP IgA. 1 positive is enough to move forward with an endoscopic biopsy. You must keep eating gluten each day or you could quit now & begin again around 1 month prior to the GI appointment. I warn you though that if you quit & then resume, you are most likely going to have a much more severe reaction than if you had never quit at all.

Try to see if there are any cancellations with the GI.  I had the complete celiac panel many times.  I only get a positive on the DGP IgA (even in follow-up testing) and I am biopsy confirmed.   Why?  My doctors do not know.  This is one example why there are several celiac blood tests.

Thank you! I'm really hoping this was a fluke and I don't have celiac disease.

      After looking at Google images, the spleen is on the upper left abdomen, too!  An organ, part of the lymphatic system for immune function.  A filter.  Wonder how this relates to gluten sensitivity?

      Hello, everyone, This upper left side pain is interesting to me.  I have this same pain almost all the time.  Started 2009 when I got diverticulitis for the first time.  Then had left ovarian cyst removed and a diagnosis of endometriosis all over inside.  Been attempting gluten-free since 2018.  It's not perfect, but still have that left sided pain.  Like up under the rib cage.  I believe the pancreas head is on that side, so I often wonder if I have a tumor or something there.  But it could also be an endometriosis adhesion in my belly.  I never got scraped.

      One of my biggest issues is when a brand chooses to label one item gluten free, but not another. Why is Hunt's diced tomatoes labeled gluten free, but not the paste or sauce? I would have assumed they were all gluten-free, but why label one and not the others? It makes me suspicious.

      Most of these items would be naturally gluten-free, with very little chance of cross contamination, thus they don't typically label them as gluten-free. If wheat is a potential allergen large companies disclose this in the ingredients as "Allergens: wheat."
