Then there is another result for CELIAC DISEASE COMPREHENSIVE PANEL TISSE TRANSGLUTAMINASE ANTIBIODY, IGA which is in range: <3
Then below it reads: IMMUNOGLOBULIN A 515H (out of Range)
She ran high out of range for every food sampled other than Cheddar Cheese. Should she have had other tests?
I will not turn this into a thread about my dd, but I felt this info is pertinent to the OP, in the event these same tests are run, only.
Can they be used to determine actual gluten sensitivity?

the celiac panel, looks like they ran one test and reflexively canceled the rest when that one was neg. the IgA at 515 is the TOTAL IgA, an elevated value is not uncommon in celiac. The GF4, don't know that one. She is gluten free now, yes? So the window for any other testing is closed. In another post, I think you mentioned a potential issue with Gardisal? If so make sure that gets reported. And, tell your daughter that a doc CAN NOT demand you take anything!
