New Blood Test

I think I am officially a lost cause and should just chalk all this up to Chrons disease. Just got my test results back and allergy test came back negative.

And My IgA is 7

And my IgG is 4

and the bloodwork had no ranges nor did the person I spoke to know what the ranges are but said nothing was out of sorts. Well I guess I can eat gluten again and hope for treatment soon for the Chrons. AAHHHH.

But yet my Saccharomyces Cerevisiae IgG and IgA came back positive.

If you have been gluten-free for a bit pay good attention to your body when you add gluten back in. Blood tests do have a high rate of false negatives so if you react when you go back on gluten get back off it and stay off it. It is quite possible to have both celiac and chrons, as far as I know.

Yes, your results are much more consistent with Crohn's. That double S. cerevisiae result is particularly diagnostic for Crohn's. I saw an interesting paper by a GI doc where he said that a lot of non-celiac people with inflammatory bowel diseases feel better off wheat. He believes the fructans in wheat feed intestinal bacteria that are causing problems.

And yes, it is possible you could have a false negative celiac test. I agree with Raven that you should pay close attention as you reintroduce wheat.

      Current "gluten challenge" recommendations are the daily consumption of at least 10g of gluten (about the amount found in 4-6 slices of wheat bread) daily leading up to the day of the biopsy.

      Thank you for your input!  I would really like to know if I have celiac disease because you need make sure you are not getting any cross contamination due to cancer concerns.  I guess I need to start with a knowledgeable Gastroenterologist. Thank you again!

      Correct. I’m doing both in the same go though. Thanks for clarifying before I confused someone. I’m doing a colonoscopy for something else and then they added the endoscopy after the test.

      It is a biopsy but it's not a colonoscopy, it's an endoscopy.
