Since I gave birth in March 2016 I have constantly been unwell and had issue after issue. I asked for a celiac test after I noticed I had every single symptom. In June 2016 my total iga was 0.5. I was diagnosed in March 2019 with iron deficiency that I had been apparently suffering from for a while but the doctor didn’t tell me. I had been to the docs so many times and was nearly bald and losing my toe nails and barely able to move till I was finally told I needed iron. I was retested in March 2019 and my total iga was 0.7. Is this what they call iga deficiency? Iv always suffered from infections and catch every bug going since I can remember. Would these results mean the celiac test is a false? I’m in the uk if that helps. I don’t really understand it all. Fed up of being fobbed off.

What was the lab range for the Immunoglobulin A (IgA) test?  If you are actually IgA deficient, your doctor can order IgG celiac test versions.

      Welcome to the forum, @yellowstone! The most common ones seem to be dairy (casein), oats, eggs, soy and corn. "Formed" meat products (because of the "meat glue" used to hold their shape) is a problem for some. But it can be almost anything on an individual basis as your sensitivity to rice proves, since rice is uncommonly a "cross reactor" for celiacs. Some celiacs seem to not do well with any cereal grains.

      What foods can trigger a response in people with gluten sensitivity? I've read that there are foods that, although they don't contain gluten, can cause problems for people with gluten sensitivity because they contain proteins similar to gluten that trigger a response in the body. I've seen that other cereals are included: corn, rice... also chicken, casein. I would like to know what other foods can cause this reaction, and if you have more information on the subject, I would like to know about it. Right now, I react very badly to rice and corn. Thank you.
