I agree. They way they handle it makes a person think it’s no big deal. So it was quite shocking when I began researching and realized it is a big deal. I felt like when my mother was diagnosed with type II diabetes they had several appointments, nutrition talks and discussed the risks that sugar caused her body, celiac seems that it’s very similar in tha...

Thank you! No I didn’t have symptoms I was having an endoscopy for preventive reasons. Basically I started colonoscopies early and they figured may as well. One of my celiac blood work test came out as a weak positive, one of the standard range and one came back typical they are redoing the blood work

Forgive me for the million post. I’m very newly diagnosed with the only advice from my physician over the phone being, “we think you have celiac so don’t eat gluten” so I’ve been in the depths of google and purchased some books. One thing I noted is whenever they talk about celiac and introduce it, it talks about flattened villi or villi atrophy. What doe...

Thank you! It really is so confusing- I know I’m posting a lot here but basically my dr just called and said “we think your probably celiac so try not eating gluten” I didn’t even know what celiac meant so have been in the depths of google lol

Thank you! I appreciate this response and it makes sense. I’m still really learning about gluten and trying to determine what to eat and what not to eat. it seems google brings up a plethora of scary results indicating cancer so I was holding on to hope it was something else! But I should be happy I got it early and hope adherence to gluten free h...

Thank you for your reply. I just happened to notice that depending on the lab my factor of 4 was sometimes considered “weak positive” other times negative. So I was unsure what to make of this. thank you

I just got my results too and I’m so confused because my Ttg iga was “positive” at 4 because the reference used was weak positive 4-10

I’m very new to this and these are the two blood tests my doctor took but as I research it looks like different labs have different references mine are: 31017-7 Tissue transglutaminase Ab.IgA result H:4 reference 0-3 normal, 4-10 mild, plus 10 positive AND 2458-8 IgA result: 321 reference: 86-351 ...

I have been seeing a gastro for family history of colon issues. They did a full panel that included celiac my blood work was: 31017-7 Tissue transglutaminase Ab.IgA : 4 (weak positive) reference 0-3 negative, 4-10 weak positive, 10 plus positive 2458-8 IgA: 321 (negative) reference 350 positive had endoscopy report said potential marsh...
