    Thanks for the clarification...but what could those results be then? If I understand @Nicole boling's original post, she is expecting results for a celiac disease blood screening.

    More information about "Understanding Iron Deficiency and Antibody Normalization in Pediatric Celiac Disease"
    Celiac.com 09/04/2024 - Researchers conducted a retrospective, observational cohort study with the aim of determining whether iron deficiency at the time of celiac disease diagnosis affects the tissue transglutaminase antibody (TTG) normalization...

    The test result you just posted Immunoglobulin A, could be the Gliadin Peptide Antibody IgG (Immunoglobulin A), also know as the DGP-IgA test. If so, your result looks like it is high as well at 302, but again, you should discuss this in more detail with your doctor.

    There are lots of names for these tests, unfortunately each lab uses them in different ways. DGP-IgG (Deamidated Gliadin Peptide) blood test for celiac disease might be referred to as an Immunoglobulin G test, per the link I shared, but it would be best for you to clarify this with your lab or doctor.
  5. Scott Adams
    I think the Immunoglobulin G test referenced here is another name for the DGP-IgG (Deamidated Gliadin Peptide) blood test for celiac disease (see the Other Names for the DGP-IgG Test section): If that is the case, which you should clarify with your doctor, then the results could mean that it's possible that you have celiac disease:

    From your answer it sounds like you do eat out, is that right? Studies have found gluten is a big issue in most restaurant food, including ones that have gluten-free menus. In cases where you have a sudden change in your BM's, it usually makes sense to take a closer look at your diet to be sure gluten isn't slipping into it somewhere. This article...

    Also, do you eat out in restaurants or other places outside your home? Restaurants can be a prime source of gluten contamination.

    It definitely makes sense to get your vitamin & mineral levels tested before you start supplementing, and unfortunately my doctors never recommended this approach at the time of my diagnosis, nor did they ever recommend any supplementation. Unfortunately this led to many years of dealing with gluten ataxia issues that were mostly only resolved decades...

    Modified food starch in the USA is almost always from corn, and would need to have an allergen warning on the label like "Contains: Wheat" if it had any wheat in it. This article might be helpful:

    I forgot to mention that this ingredient is also now accepted as gluten-free in the USA as well, although some companies have tried it and decided the controversy is not worth the gain in terms of texture and taste. One example of this is DiGiorno's Gluten-Free Pizza:

    Codex quality wheat starch is gluten-free, and below 20ppm, and has been used in gluten-free products in Europe for decades. We have a category dedicated to articles on this topic here: https://www.celiac.com/celiac-disease/miscellaneous-information-on-celiac-disease/gluten-free-diet-celiac-disease-amp-codex-alimentarius-wheat-starch/

    Probably the best way to eat it would be to make curry regularly and just eat it that way.

    I also find the study very interesting, and we did a summary of it years ago, and go slammed for doing it (see the comments). I am always amazed at the knee jerk reaction by some in the celiac disease community when we do articles on such topics. In this case, there is a lot of good information to process from the study.

    I think turmeric can definitely help because it lowers inflammation, and it also thins your blood. I was taking it for quite a while, but stopped because I also have to take aspirin, and the combination of turmeric and aspirin would mess up my stomach. Similar to aspirin, turmeric should be taken with food, as it can cause stomach irritation. There...

    It sounds like you're going through a tough time with both dermatitis herpetiformis and now Pityriasis rosea. Unfortunately, it’s not uncommon for people with celiac disease to experience additional skin issues after accidental gluten exposure, as your immune system can become more reactive. While dermatitis herpetiformis is a well-known manifestation of c...

    Without knowing anything about why you are having spine surgery I'm not sure how anyone could make a recommendations for you to delay it. Certainly there is a reason you and your doctors are planning this, which we know nothing about, and you should discuss your vitamin deficiencies with your doctor now.

    I'm sorry to hear about what your son has been going through. It's understandable that you're concerned, especially with the close timing of his celiac disease diagnosis and the onset of bone edema. While it's true that bone issues like edema aren't commonly linked directly to celiac disease, there have been cases where children with untreated celiac disease...

    Yes, interleukin-7 (IL-7) is indeed being studied in the context of autoimmune diseases like multiple sclerosis (MS) and rheumatoid arthritis (RA). IL-7 is a cytokine that plays a critical role in the development and maintenance of T cells, which are key players in the immune system. In the case of MS, research is focused on understanding how IL-7 contributes...

    This article might be helpful. It breaks down each type of test, and what a positive results means in terms of the probability that you might have celiac disease.
