Was flying out of LGA last week, running late and didn't have time to pack my own food for the flight. I figured I'd just grab an expensive airport banana. Low and behold the large cafe/market right after security has a rediculous amount of gluten-free snacks. I counted at least 10 shelves of products. Chips, cookies, bars, fruit snacks, healthy and non-healthy options. All expensive of course but an amazing selection. They even had Redbridge in the beer cooler! Too bad it was 9:30am.

      What might this EMA result mean?

      By trents · Posted

      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.

      Have you been diagnosed with celiac disease or are you looking into it?

      Thank you. There is no reference range mentioned unfortunately.

      Welcome to the forum, @Toaster! EMA is a celiac disease specific antibody test. It was one of the first antibody tests developed for celiac disease but it has fallen out of favor in recent years. It is an excellent test but expensive to administer as it requires the use of animal organ tissue (esophagus I think) in order to be run. Since then, a less expensive test known as the tTG-IGA has been developed that essentially accomplishes the same thing. Your test result of 1.24 g/L is meaningless unless you can also supply the reference range values used by the lab. Different labs use different reference ranges for negative vs. positive. There is no standard. The EMA test is discussed in this article along with other celiac disease antibody tests:
