Fair enough! I very easily could have misread somewhere. Celiac is very confusing lol but I should know in a little over a month what the final verdict is. Just thought chatting with people smarter than myself would get me in the right mindset. I just thought that DGP IGA was pretty high compared to some stuff I had seen and figured someone on here would...

Okay yeah that helps! To answer your last bit my understanding was that you need to have multiple tests to confirm celiac. Blood, biopsy, dna, and then I think symptoms is another one. Either way I think everything has to be confirmed with the biopsy because that is the gold standard for testing (Doctors words). You also answered another question I forgot...

It is interesting you mentioned that it could be other things because I asked my gastro and she literally said it means nothing else. That that value was only considered for Celiac which is kind of why I asked here because I didn't understand how a celiac only value could be high and it wasn't celiac.

I did read this article and all it helped me determine was that I am too dumb lol. Plus with DGP IGA 75-95 is a huge range. I was also confused on if it meant 75-95% of people with positive dgp iga have it or if it meant that of 100% of the people that have Celiac 75-95% this value will be positive. Most of my symptoms are GI related but the other one...

Oh sorry see I know nothing lol. Yes my doctor informed me to eat gluten up until the biopsy so squared away there. All of my questions here are just to get me in the right head space. I have put the actual values from the test. Deamidated Gliadin Peptide IgA Antibody, Quantitative Normal range: 0.0 - 14.9 U/mL - Value 688 Deamidated Gliadin Peptide...

I went to the gastroenterologist for what I thought was IBS. They thought it sounded like celiac. I got a blood test with normal everything except a deamidated gliadine peptide iga of 688. Total iga was in normal range so not deficient. My question is with a dgp iga like that is it pretty much only celiac at that point. I haven’t seen anything e...
