    Thanks for your response! I will definitely look into that.

    Here's an update for others who had similar blood test results to mine. I had an endoscopy and colonoscopy and they took biopsies. The biopsies show no evidence of celiac disease.

    Just saw an internist. They said I don’t have the symptoms of celiac (despite having fatigue, weight loss, diarrhea, gas, anemia) and that they prefer to just test TTG, not DGP.

I’m going to continue eating gluten until things are sorted.

    I have been dealing with iron deficiency anemia for 2 years. Taking iron supplements hasn’t helped at all and I am tired all the time.

    I am on a gluten-containing diet and got some confusing blood test results. I haven't found anyone else with such a high DGP Ab IgG. I'm seeing an internist soon and waiting on a gastroenterology referral still. My results are in bold. Anyone know what this might mean?
