Ok So I Ordered My Enterolab Test

Ok so I ordered my Enterolab test, it is hidding in the freezer waiting for Monday to get here so I can send it off. I know that everybody keeps telling me don't worry about what test results are its the diatary results that count. Ok I understand, I think that now I am really wanting to know what the numbers are to see where they may fall. But I will be mad at myself for wasting money for a test that just might come out normal. I do understand that if this comes back with elevated numbers that it will not give me a diagnoses, only a Doctor can diagnose. So hopefully in 3 weeks I will be posting my results.

It will not give you an "official" diagnosis but by your numbers you are going to get a good idea of what is going on in your intestine.

I think at this point now I am not looking for a diagnoses because I don't I will get one from a real doctor, even if I seek a second opionion. At this point I am wanting to know what my numbers are without a doctor hiding them from me, until I ask and beg for them. I will give a copy to my General practice doctor to put into my medical file since he is the only doc that I have who has been honest with me about not knowing what the diesease is. So I know that this is not an "official" diagnoses, I am doing this for me.

      It's possible, as there are other things that may cause elevated tTg-IgA levels, but in general a reaction to gluten is the culprit:    Also, approximately 10x more people have non-celiac gluten sensitivity than have celiac disease, but there isn’t yet a test for NCGS. If your symptoms go away on a gluten-free diet it would likely signal NCGS.

      Perhaps you could bring you own? Not sure, but worth a try.

      I received my ANA test results - negative.  I'm thinking it was infection, was put on antibiotics for suspected sibo at the time blood test was taken. Significant improvements from taking them even while eating gluten.

      Thanks again. I've actually convinced my local butcher shop to start carrying Ghostfish gluten-free beer. It's not bad! But you won't often find it at a ski lodge.

      Villi damage is caused by celiac disease, which does not happen in NCGS, although some people with NCGS do have elevated antibody levels. Some people with NCGS who have the genes for celiac disease may end up developing celiac disease, so in some people NCGS may be a precursor to celiac disease, but more research needs to be done on NCGS. Both low iron and vitamin D are common symptoms of celiac disease. Also, regarding beer:
