My son who is 11 had these blood test results

Anti-Endomysial IGA-Negative

Gliadin IGA- High at 5.4 (<5 is normal the range says

Gliadin IGG- 6.1 (<10 normal)

Serum IGA- 194 (41-395 normal)

Tissue Transglutaminase IGA .6 (<4 normal)

Prometheus Lab did these and he had a stomach flu and fever the week before.

Did he have a biopsy done as well or just blood tests?

These blood tests pretty much came back all negative except for one slightly elevated. That would not be enough to indicate celiac at this point but there could be a gluten problem just now in beginning stages so that is why it is not elevated in the blood yet.

If he has been having symptoms then it is likely he has the start to something.

Did he have the gene test performed by Prometheus too?

He did have the gene test and he did have one of the genes for celiac. He had the biopsy done first it came back with some of the damage typical of Celiac Disease.

      Cooking with Scallop Medalions

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      I believe I've seen them at Costco still in the shells (in the frozen seafood area), which might be a safe way to go.

      Is this safe for someone with celiac disease?

      A dedicated rack is a great idea if everyone in the house understands and supports the idea, and just to clarify, I didn't recommend just wiping the rack down, but washing it well in soap and hot water.

      Thanks, I appreciate you getting back to me.  Sometimes the retailers don't have content info on products they sell and they have rewrapped them with no ingredients list. Guess I'll stick to prepackaged medalions with all the info.

      Coping with celiac

      By ShariW · Posted

      I find that I sometimes have symptoms due to cross-contact with foods that *might* be contaminated in the processing. 100% gluten-free certification is something I look for in every processed food I consume.

      I would not be comfortable with just wiping down the rack after a gluten-containing food was cooked on it. When I cook pizza in the oven, my gluten-free pizza goes on the top rack - nothing else is ever placed directly on that top rack, gluten or not. Contact with minute traces of gluten cause me symptoms within a few hours. If I heat a gluten-free roll in my toaster oven, I place it on a small bit of foil so that it does not directly contact the rack that *might* have traces of gluten on it.
