Need Help With Hla-Dq Testing


Nay44

Recommended Posts

Nay44 Newbie

I was just diagnosed with Celiac from blood work of >than 100 on TTg, 58.1 on IgG and 78.8 on IgA. Also had HLA-DQ typing done and these were the results which I need help with interpretation.

DQ alpha 1: 05:01,05

DQ beta 1: 02:01,03

Celiac gene pairs present: Yes

What are the genes that I have? Did they check for DQ2 and DQ8. I know you have two copies of the DQ gene so trying to figure out what mine are from the above findings. The tests were performed at Mayo Clinic in Rochester, MN.

I do not have any major gastro systems and don't feel sick after eating gluten. I was complaining of fatigue and feeling bloated so doctor ran celiac panel. Couldn't believe it. Had scope done last week but no results yet. Doctor said he saw scalloping of the 2nd and 3rd duodenum??? Have been gluten free for 5 days....

Please help. Had all 3 kids tested and all were negative from the Celiac panel tests. I would think one of them would have it if I have it.

Sorry, I am not a genetic expert -- but others here will help you with that.

The scalloping is a sign of celiac - I believe you will get a positive biopsy report. Some of your kids may well have a celiac gene if you do; if so, it doesn't mean that they will automatically develop the disease - it just shows that they have the propensity to do so. There is generally a trigger which sets it off - physical or emotional stress, for example. The genes are not that uncommon and I believe the majority of the people who carry them do not seem to get celiac disease. You should watch them for symptoms though.

      Sometimes celiacs can also have other things like lactose intolerance which is fairly common. Also research fodmap foods, it's quite complicated but there are some other foods which can cause digestive issues. For me it's too many onions and garlic.

      You may be reacting to some of the ingredients used to imitate gluten products. I eat Amy's Chilli quite often with no problems. When I eat Bush's chilli beans or Hormel Chilli with the same ingredient list, I get heartburn.  Break out the alka seltzer.   Barillo spaghetti has CORN FLOUR, RICE FLOUR, MONO AND DIGLYCERIDES. Udi's White bread Ingredients - water, tapioca starch, brown rice flour, canola oil, dried egg whites, sugar, tapioca maltodextrin, tapioca syrup, sorghum flour, less than 2% of: rice starch, sorghum grain, flaxseed meal,  gum blend (xanthan gum, sodium alginate, guar gum), apple cider vinegar, apple fiber, molasses, salt, amaranth flour, teff flour, yeast...

      My TTG was 167 one year ago. Recently had it retested one month ago and it went down to 16. I only recently had an endoscopy done as I was pregnant within the last year. I did not eat gluten prior to this endoscopy as I get very sick. Prior to obtaining the biopsies, the endoscopy said “ diffuse moderately erythematous mucosa to the second part of the duodenum without bleeding.” However, the biopsy came back negative. I assume it’s a false negative as I have also had genetic testing to confirm celiac. However, what would cause the inflammation to the second part of the duodenum and continued positive blood markers if the intestines have healed?

      Thank you for direction.  Eating out is a concern though we rarely do, but I'm prepared now.
