Celiac Serology after Gluten Challenge
GfreeOH replied to GfreeOH's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
Thanks Scott. I had that idea as well, so, I went back on a gluten-diet Monday after just a brief few days of being gluten free. I can’t imagine it would skew the blood serology much. I had the bloodwork drawn today - so we shall see what it says. I was instructed to go gluten free post serology testing since I have already had the positive EGD and gene t... -
Hello, I have a one-off question regarding Celiac Serology. I had an EGD on Monday of Last week after a 7/8 week gluten challenge. I had been gluten free for 6 months prior to the gluten challenge. The EGD found Villous flattening and suspected Celiac. I have the Celiac HLADQ Genes confirmed by Mayo clinic already. My question is: The Gastro...

Thanks again wheatwhacked! I may see if I can get them to run a vitamin panel as well as I only know the D-25 result as that was ran as a general wellness lab by my pcp:) I think I have many of the celiac/malnourishment symptoms, but again it’s just so hard to say as they seem to be symptoms of other ailments as well.

Also, I had the genetic test through Mayo Clinic already:) The Gastro did order that at least:) that is what prompted them doing the EGD. I have the “celiac gene pairs”, and...

This is so helpful, thank-you! I will continue the gluten challenge until I hear from the doctors otherwise in-case further bloodwork will be needed. Have a great evening!

Thank you, Trents! I have been dairy-free and nut-free for years due to allergies, and, I do not take any prescribed or over the counter meds regularly. My main symptoms are the right-sided abdominal pain and severe bloated abdomen. I also have quite a bit of tiredness likely from the low vitamin levels or low iron. I have had full bloodwork, and follow...

Hello! Backstory, I have been fighting with chronic abdominal pain for YEARS. I was told the pain was “IBS”. I was referred to a Gastroenterologist office in my town and had bloodwork done, as well as Genetic testing through Mayo Clinic. My TTG-IGA and TTG IGG were negative, but, the Celiac Gene pairs were present. It said DQ Alpha 1 05:01, 0...
