Wow, fascinating that some can't eat oats. Could that explain my current high DGP-IgG levels? Or does avenin not trigger DPG-IgG or something that looks like it? Or is that a separate test?

I'm actually shocked that these percentages are that high. I would have guessed more like 15% accuracy give or take based on the impressions I've gotten chatting with doctors and researching stuff. I suppose the chances that I have celiac disease are a lot higher than I thought. I'm looking forward to the results of this endoscopy though a bit scared of the...

They did test for tTG-IgA and it was undetectable (<1.0) but my total IgA was also undetectable (<5) and flagged as low. They stated that I have selective IgA deficiency. There were 5 thing measured in total on the panel, tTG-IgA, total IgA, tTG-IgG (1.0, <15 is normal), Gliaden IgA, Gliaden IgG Gliaden IgG was flagged as high, total IgA flagged...

Hi Scott! Negative for this test is <15 u/ml Generally I haven't been eating at restaurants however one thing that comes to mind is I did have a bowl of oatmeal at a hotel almost 3 weeks ago. I also got scrambled eggs at a hotbar at a whole foods a few days. Perhaps there could have been cross contamination? I assume the oatmeal wasn't gluten...

I'm still awaiting an endoscopy next month due to a "positive" celiac panel back in March (221 Antigliadin IgG, no detectable total IgA) They ran another celiac panel for me yesterday, 3 months later, and the number is now 171. Shouldn't it be far lower than that by now given the half life I'm seeing online? (21-24 days) Does this suggest I've accidentally...

Another random note: when I changed my diet and started the PPI, I did start eating large amounts of whole wheat pasta but stopped after a week or two when I went low fodmap. I was definitely not gluten free before that but I did ramp up my gluten intake significantly immediately following the endoscopy. I wonder if maybe there's a gluten threshold to trigger...

Thanks trents for the info. My primary GI suspects that it is NCGS. I'm actually kind of scared to do a gluten challenge. I've been trying to fix my digestion for over 5 months now. Weeks of that much gluten is highly likely to be a big setback for me A question if you don't mind: Do you know how many weeks minimum would be required for a...

Hi all, I wanted to ask for some advice. I had a "positive" celiac panel back in March. Here's the relevant numbers/reference ranges from that test: GLIADIN(DEAMIDATED) AB, IGG 221.4 High <15.0 Antibody not detected > or = 15.0 Antibody detected IgA <5 Low Normal range: 47 - 310 mg/dLu/mL The remaining...
