      Hi! thanks for the quick feedback! I tested negative for DQ8, but did test positive for DQ2 and DQ7. I’m not sure if there’s any information regarding DQ7 and the risk for celiac. I have included the reference ranges for the other labs below. It does not appear that my total IGA was tested. Thanks again.    CELIAC DISEASE PANEL GLIADIN AB, DEAMID. IgG: 7 INTERPRETIVE INFORMATION: <15 U/ML NEGATIVE >=15 U/ML POSITIVE  TTG IgA: <1 INTERPRETIVE INFORMATION <15 U/ML: NEGATIVE >=15 U/ML: POSITIVE  TTG IgG: <1 INTERPRETIVE INFORMATION <15 U/ML: NEGATIVE >=15 U/ML: POSITIVE  GLIADIN AB, DEAMID. IgA: 1 INTERPRETIVE INFORMATION <15 U/ML: NEGATIVE >=15 U/ML: POSITIVE

      Welcome to the forum, @np1209! Your understanding of the gene testing results is correct. DQ2 and DQ8 are the primary genes associated with the potential to develop celiac disease. My understanding is also that DQ2 alone represents stronger potential than DQ8 alone. But we need more information with regard to your antibody test results. You need to include not only the raw test scores but the reference ranges. There are no industry standards for reference ranges yet as each lab develops the tests a little differently. Another question I have is are the results you posted above reflective of all antibody tests that were ordered? I don't see a listing for "total IGA" which should always be included so as to check for IGA deficiency. IGA deficiency can result in false negatives on individual IGA antibody tests. You won't be able to edit your first post so please repost the info with additions.

      Hello! I’m in the process of testing and wanted to see if anyone could help me interpret my results or recommend further testing. It appears my genetic test was positive for DQ2 and DQ7. All other testing was negative and I have been consuming gluten in decent amounts.  I’m interpreting this as being at risk, but likely not positive for a celiac diagnosis? Would love to hear anyone’s insight. Thanks! GLIADIN AB, DEAMID. IgG: 7 TTG IgA: <1 TTG IgG: <1 GLIADIN AB, DEAMID. IgA: 1   hla-dqa1: 05, 05 hla-dqb1: 02:01, 03:01 serologic equivalent: DQ2, DQ7 interpretation: Out of Range Moderate Risk: Genotype present: HLA-DQ2 (DQA1*05+, DQB1*02+). HLA-DQ2 is associated with genetic susceptibility for celiac disease.
