I have no idea. I got a low grade fever once with mine when the lesions got BIG.

Mine never has and he was broken out for 7 months straight. I have no idea if it's possible though. See what a big help I am?

I know my older kids though are the kings of viral rashes that appear either out of nowhere or following a cold or illness of some sort. Maybe it's that?

Thanks you guys. And SPJ&E you did help so don't say you aren't. I just got word today that my nephews daughter had a bad episode which they had to take her to the hospital for. She broke out in a blistering rash & got a high fever so bad that she had seizures from it. My first thought was is this related to celiac? My nephew was offline for a while but I've just heard back from him that they said it was/is hand & mouth (foot & mouth?). He said she gets psoriasis though. He says she's still itchy all over her body & they have her on claritin for the rash & an antibiotic for an ear infection.

Pardon me for being stupid but I had no children & I don't know much about all the stuff they go through.

Our family has been somewhat disjointed/dysfunctional as far as not sticking close with each other so I hadn't had contact with my nephew for a while. I wanted to let him know about celiac & had tracked him down to tell him. Found out his sister, my niece passed away in April. Loved her very much. Drugs & alcohol. sad.gif

I'm sorry to hear about your niece. Very sad news, indeed.

Thank you Prickly. She was only 32. Her liver shut down which in turn caused her kidneys to shut down. They made the decision to take her off life support.

      Hi thanks for your response! This is the only other info that’s on my test results for the IgA. The initial testing performed in the Celiac Disease Reflex Panel is the total IgA. If the total IgA is <10 mg/dL, the reflex tests that will be ordered are the Tissue Transglutaminase IgG Antibody and the Deamidated Gliadin Peptide IgG Antibody. If the total IgA is >=10 mg/dL, the reflex test that will be ordered is the Tissue Transglutaminase IgA Antibody. Does that give some insight?  following up with my Dr early next week… thanks again.  And I didn’t eat more gluten than usual during the last 6-8 weeks on purpose. Just a normal diet prior to testing. I had gluten everyday for 6-8 weeks though I’m sure.

      Have you tried sheep's milk and goat's milk cheeses? After my diagnosis I could not tolerate cow's milk for ~2 years until my villi healed, but for some reason I did not have issues with sheep milk or goat milk cheeses.  I also had temporary issues with chicken eggs, but could eat duck eggs.

      This is not a test for celiac disease, but your total IgA levels. This test is usually done with other celiac disease blood tests to make sure the results are accurate. Did they do a tTg-IgA test as well? Were you eating lots of gluten in the 6-8 weeks leading up to your blood tests? This article might be helpful. It breaks down each type of test, and what a positive results means in terms of the probability that you might have celiac disease. One test that always needs to be done is the IgA Levels/Deficiency Test (often called "Total IGA") because some people are naturally IGA deficient, and if this is the case, then certain blood tests for celiac disease might be false-negative, and other types of tests need to be done to make an accurate diagnosis. The article includes the "Mayo Clinic Protocol," which is the best overall protocol for results to be ~98% accurate.

      Test results came back for everything that was tested now. Cholesterol is off the charts high. Not sure if that’s related to celiac, I have no idea how it could be so high. Also tested positive for H pylori  infection… is there a link to celiac and H pylori? Or am I just experiencing symptoms of the H pylori infection?

      I’m reading that some sites list a high Immunoglobulin A result for my age above 300, another site says above 356, and other sites are saying above 400. I don’t know what to make of this result 🤷‍♂️
