I am confused about what my Endo. dr. said about my test results he ordered. I am going to a GI dr. next month.

The Endo. said that Neg. is 0-3 and I was a 4. What does this mean? He also gave me an option to go on ahead and have the Endoscopy before I went to the GI too.

I'm assuming that you had the antitissue transglutaminase blood test done. That test indicates whether you have 'active' gluten sensitivity going on. You are just over the normal range. But most authorities would tell you what we've all heard before. Just like you can't be a 'little' pregnant, you also can't be just a 'little' gluten intolerant. You either are or you aren't. Usually by the time this particular test shows up positive at all, there is some damage already done. From what I hear everyone saying on this board, it is likely you may already have celiac. Some people go on and do the scoping for an official diagnosis, but many just take the test as enough evidence to go gluten free. Read all you can on this board and you will hear many opinions about how to proceed from here. :)

Oh, excuse me.....WELCOME TO THE BOARD! :D

      Agreed. Dairy is just as bad as gluten for me.

      Many probiotics start with growing the bacteria on a dairy substrate leaving traces of dairy in the probiotics.   Many Celiacs react to dairy in the same way as they react to gluten because certain protein chains in dairy resemble gluten protein chains.   @Wheatwacked ferments his own pickles.  Perhaps he can chime in.

      The AIP diet does have a vegetarian version.   Dr. Sarah Ballantyne developed the AIP diet for herself and her children, all Celiacs.  The AIP diet has been shown in scientific studies to promote intestinal healing.  You might visit her website.  https://www.thepaleomom.com/
