You are positive for celiac disease as your level og total serum IGA is high. You should read about cross contamination and any vitamins that are gluten free and Ensure is also a good option for vitamins.

Do I really need an official diagnosis?
PK-432 replied to twillow's topic in Dermatitis Herpetiformis
When you have reached to your home country then you should go for official diagnosis if it is possible to tolerate gluten for at least 1-2 months. Best of luck -
To test or not
PK-432 replied to Snuffthroostr's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
Before you go on gluten challenge it's better to go on celiac disease genes test; HLA TYPING CLASS II. It will help you to rule out either you have celiac disease / dermatitis herptiformis /gluten sensitivity because they are many people who get better on gluten free diet with IBS. so look all aspects and then decide. Best of luck. -

Am I celiac or not?
PK-432 replied to aya's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
As your ferritin, vitamin d and iron levels are low without any reason it strongly suggests celiac disease but for proper disgnosis gene test,biopsy is required. You should consult competent gastroentrologist with good repute. I am in search of competent gastroentrologist since 6 years and still searching. Be sure to be on gluten free diet... -
Am I celiac or not?
PK-432 replied to aya's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
As your vitamin d and iron levels are low it suggests celiac disease because if I am not wrong ,your iron levels is low without any reason. To rule out confusion you should go for celiac gene test. Because if your gene test is positive then you should go for biopsy of small intestines to confirm the diagnosis about celiac disease. I also have... -
Contradicting results?
PK-432 replied to OliviaM19's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
Good to know that you get right diagnosis. In 06 biopsies it is possible to get negative results for celiac disease because it is also possible that gastroentrologist has not taken biopsy from damaged area. Be sure to learn about cross contamination and be on strict gluten free diet. Best of luck! -
Endoscopy tomorrow
PK-432 replied to jen22's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
I agree with cyclinglady, straight away go for strict gluten free diet as your increased levels of blood show celiac disease and also go for gene test to get confirm diagnosis if biopsy comes negative or even positive. It will confirm your diagnosis. Best of luck -
What should I do?
PK-432 replied to PK-432's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
To GFinDC and cycling lady, I really want to go for gluten free diet but after proper disgnosis because I went gluten free for two times but I had cross contamination every week because my family do not understand cross contamination completely and it causes dispute in home,every day . Dr's also always discourage me to be on gluten free diet. So, I am really... -
What should I do?
PK-432 replied to PK-432's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
I agree with you Ennis_TX, I was talking about psyllium husk. I took it only one time and it has increased intensity of my pain. I do not take more fiber because it increases my diarrhea. I am really thankful for your suggestions. I already take low fiber diet. I also took non dairy probiotics but they were not helpful. -
As still you are on gluten free diet. You should go for gene test of celiac disease; HLA Typing Class II. Because for gene test it is not required to be on gluten diet. If you test come back positive then you should go on gluten diet for at least 8 weeks to go for blood tests of celiac disease which includes TTG-IGG, TTG-IGA, Total IGA, EMA -IGA, AGA (ANTI...

Anyone know what these results mean?
PK-432 replied to Mself145's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
It means that you are allergic to those food items which result is in high values. But,till you see your Dr. Take normal diet so he can also check you out for celiac disease if he thinks it is required. Best of luck dear. -
I have consulted up to 11 gastroentrologists up till now since 2012. I am devastated due to my bad health. Dr. Has yesterday started lomotil and advised me to take pencilin husk with yogurt at night. These both has increased severity of cramps. DGP-IGA and DGP-IGG is not available with the lab. Should I go for AGA test? What is the percentage...

Yes gluten free diet is really difficult to manage due to serious issue of cross contamination. Even cross contamination develops serious complications and other diseases if not taken care.

Almost a year in, still can't get it right
PK-432 replied to SailorScout's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
Use utensils only of steel or stainless steel, glass and bone China to avoid cross contamination as whole family can use these utensils and these utensils do not get cross contamination like plastic, wood and cast iron. https://glutenfreehomestead.com/2015/05/5-essential-steps-to-prevent-gluten-cross-contamination-in-your-kitchen/ https://www...- 2 replies
