Calling All Armchair Enterolab Results Readers...

We got our EnteroLab results today.

There is no question that DH is sensitive.

My results are an IgA 9 where the normal range is <10. Would being gluten lite for about a year weaken the results any?? I do get tummy issues and the D when I eat a sandwich or pizza (cheese free). After doing the diet test with our son, I got severe chills, barfies and had to stay on the sofa all day.

Can you give me your armchair opinions??

Sounds like a weak positive to me. And yes, being gluten-lite would definitely affect your results.

      I was diagnosed with dermatitis herpetiformis and ultimately celiac disease in September 2024.  I am trying to navigate the world with celiac, unsuccessfully, still having dermatitis herpetiformis outbreaks.  Grocery shopping is difficult, shopping for toiletries is nearly impossible. Dining out is also a challenge. Can anyone recommend iPhone apps that will make these easier?  Thanks so much!

      After seeing 2 doctors for a rash on my elbows and forearms, that did NOT get better with steroids or creams, I was directed to a dermatologist.  She took a biopsy from one of the lesions, September 3, 2024.   A week later, the result was dermatitis herpetiformis, positive for celiac. She prescribed Clobetasol Propionate USP, 0.05% cream.  This is the only thing that helped with the rash. The dermatologist then took a second biopsy from an area that was near the rash that was clearing up.  That biopsy came back negative. Meanwhile, the dermatologist referred me to a gastroenterologist PA.  The battery of bloodwork was mixed, some showing weak positive for celiac, but my IgA was...

      Although the gluten challenge guidelines suggest at least two weeks of at least 10g of gluten daily, I would go for 4 weeks to make sure - if you can tolerate it, that is. When you go in for the blood draw, make sure to ask your physician to order not only the tTG-IGA test but the total IGA test. The tTG-IGA test result cannot be trusted if you are IGA deficient. The total IGA test checks for IGA deficiency. Many physicians will order only the tTG-IGA. So, at the minimum, the doc should order the tTG-IGA and the total IGA. There are other celiac antibody tests that can also be ordered for a more comprehensive panel, especially in the case of IGA deficiency.  Here is an overview of celiac...
