Thanks
What do you mean by showing up first ? Is it possible that the rest of the antibodues will turn positive later ? or the symptoms will appear later ?
I did the antigliadin IgG Ab test about 15 years ago. I repeated the other antibodies tests but not the antigliadin IgG because it isn't included anymore in the celiac screening here. Besides that test 15 years ago all the other celiac antibodies were normal.
Can a positive gliadinn IgG Ab indicate other diagnosis then celiac ?
