My doctor ordered me bloodwork for a celiac comprehensive panel. Everything was in normal range with the exception of igg which was a 9. My results just came in so I will not be talking with my doctor until Monday. Anyone have knowledge of those type of results?

Ttg iga was <2. Normal range is 0-3

Ttg igg was 9

Ranges 0-5 negative, 5-9 weak positive, >9 positive

"Deamidated gliadin peptide (DGP IgA and IgG): This test can be used to further screen for celiac disease in individuals with IgA deficiency, which affects 2-3% of patients with celiac disease, or people who test negative for tTg or EMA antibodies. IgA deficiency in a patient may be indicative of other diseases that may cause villus atrophy, such as giardiasis, small-bowel bacterial overgrowth (SIBO) or common variable immunodeficiency (CVID).2

While it is very rare, it is possible for someone with celiac disease to have negative antibody test results. If your tests were negative, but you continue to experience symptoms, consult your physician and undergo further medical evaluation." from https://celiac.org/about-celiac-disease/screening-and-diagnosis/screening/

I wonder if you have IGA  deficiency.

At this point your doctor may want to do an endoscopy so be sure to keep eating bluten daily until all testing is finished.

      More great tips, and a good excuse to shop at M&S and also buy more iced buns!   I wish we had an ASDA near us, as the few times we've been to one their gluten-free pasta range seemed very reasonably priced compared to other shops.  Thanks so much, @Russ H.

      I hope you are on the mend soon. About 1 in 5 people who contracted chicken pox as a child go on to develop shingles in later life - it is not uncommon. There are 5 known members of the herpes virus family including chicken pox that commonly infect humans, and they all cause lifelong infections. The exact cause of viral reactivation as in the case of shingles or cold sores is not well understood, but stress, sunburn and radiotherapy treatment are known triggers. Some of the herpes viruses are implicated in triggering autoimmune diseases: Epstein-Barr virus is suspected of triggering multiple sclerosis and lupus, and there is a case where it is suspected of triggering coeliac disease. As to whether coeliac disease can increase the likelihood of viral reactivation, there have been several cohort studies including a large one in Sweden suggesting that coeliac disease is associated with a moderate increase in the likelihood of developing shingles in people over the age of 50.

      BFree bread is fortified with vitamins and minerals as is ASDA own-brand gluten-free bread. All the M&S bread seems to be fortified also.
