There is not enough information to assess the likelihood of coeliac disease. You'll have to chase this up with the quack. The lab should provide antibody titres and a reference range. They might just have done an EMA test, which is negative/positive and antiquated - a proper IgA-ttG2 test would be more helpful. -

Blood tests for vitamin deficiencies are not an accurate measurement of vitamin stores within cells where the vitamins are actually utilized. The brain will order cells in tissues and organs to put their stored vitamins into the blood stream to supply the brain and heart. Deficiency symptoms can appear before there's a change in blood levels. The... -

Yes that's why I'm holding off on getting tested until after the summer so no Russian roulette bathroom escapades then I will reintroduce and get tested. The vitamins aren't a supplement they are frozen fruits and vegetables that you blend with water so it's natural fruit and veggies that I have used for 5 years daily. I don't take supplements I did full... -

What would a diagnosis tell me?
Ten grams of gluten per day for two weeks or longer is needed to get antibody levels up high enough so that they can be measured in the blood stream and intestinal damage can be seen in the small intestines. HOWEVER, only THREE grams if gluten is needed to produce symptoms...like running to the bathroom. Some people have much worse symptoms after...

Hi my name is Jessika and I have been wondering what conditions are connected to celiac disease and what are the symptoms? -

Blood tests for vitamin deficiencies are not an accurate measurement of vitamin stores within cells where the vitamins are actually utilized. The brain will order cells in tissues and organs to put their stored vitamins into the blood stream to supply the brain and heart. Deficiency symptoms can appear before there's a change in blood levels. The eight B vitamins are water soluble. That means they can get flushed out of your system easily with that Russian Roulette Running. Some vitamin deficiencies have gastrointestinal symptoms that mimic Celiac Disease. Thiamine deficiency has gastrointestinal symptoms including diarrhea. Vitamin C is also water soluble with gastrointestinal symptoms like diarrhea when deficient. Symptoms of a deficiency in Niacin B3 include diarrhea, and a blistering reaction to sunlight. Have a nice vacation and keep us posted on your progress when you get back! P.S. There's not a difference between being glutened and being cross contaminated. You'll get your usual symptoms. The digestive tract has a limited vocabulary. -

I don't take supplements I did full vitamin bloodwork and all great levels for what I need. -
