A month ago I showed a test result of 71 H with a Reference Range of >10 being positive.

Is this as incredibly high and damaging as it leads me to believe and now that I am cutting gluten out of my diet, will a repeat of this blood work show improved results or does this merely show my susceptibility to gluten.

:(

The test result measures the amount of antibodies in your bloodstream. It should go down after you have been gluten free for a while. I think it can take awhile though. Doctors usually test after about 6 months but some do it sooner and some later.

      Kratom

      By MommaBear82 · Posted

      Hepatotoxicity DOES happen with kratom. It happened to my husband. He turned yellow with jaundice and his urine became brown. This was only after taking it three times. I know because I was the one who gave it to him, unfortunately. People should realize that it can and does happen.

      What might this EMA result mean?

      No other tests. This was from about 10 years ago, I noticed it when checking through my all bloods to look for patterns.  I will go back to my doctor...

      Were there any other tests besides the EMA run for celiac disease? If not, you should request them. At minimum, "total IGA" and "tTG-IGA" should be ordered. A more complete celiac panel would also include the DGP-IGA, DGP-IGG and TTG-IGG. And very importantly, you should not have been reducing gluten consumption in the weeks/months leading up to the testing blood draw.

      I'm looking into it. I have several quite low vitamin results which I believe may be from malabsorption. B12, ferritin, folate, vit d all very low. Re-occuring mouth issues, gut issues.
