I see, both my sisters have this! I should not tell them this vodka tips though I’ll spread the awareness and continue to convince them to go gluten-free.

Yes it is in grams per litre. I saw it was starred in the results (not falling in normal range); but the Dr was dismissive and saying it is normal as sometimes the reading would go slightly higher based on what you eat and not necessarily celiac. i had gluten the night before the blood test hence it might explain the elevated globulin levels. Not sure about...

The clinic I went to did not have basic celiac test and they refused to provide me a referral to the hospital for a celiac test. They requested me to get the basic blood screening test done at the clinic and would only provide me with the referral after (guess they were trying to milk some money). Long story short, I got my results (all normal except globulin...

Same total protein but my globulins were slightly higher than albumin. Thanks for sharing! In that case I should just bring along my blood test results to see GI.

Understood, I’m no longer on GFD and on gluten challenge (on my own plan, not advised by Dr yet) as i have set an appointment to meet a GI for the first time next week. Hopefully I get to convince him to grant me the celiac test. Meanwhile, I’m not sure if Imaware would reach Malaysia. And i wish the test isn’t as costly here

The diagnosis is really important to me considering m...

Interesting! I’ve never come across this as one of the perks going gluten-free

Understood, I really hope I can have the celiac test done eventually. Started with having altered bowel movements, frequent heart palpitations and unexplained infertility. I have tried going gluten free for a few days and feels much better.

Thanks, this is very helpful to me! My globulin was 43 g/L. I had my vitamin B12 tested and it was normal too. I’m having a really hard time convincing Doctors that I need the specific celiac test. Seems like they will point to everything else and rule out one by one before getting to the celiac test.

Anyone here familiar or had an experience of celiac diagnosis relating to globulin / eosinophils level? It’s very challenging for me to be granted a celiac testing in my country, they only allow for a basic screening first. Is globulin of 43 and albumin of 42 normal? Is eosinophil 4.2 normal? Can any of this be an indicator of celiac?
