Default Deamidated gliagin IgG the only test to come back positive, can you help?

Hi, I have been experiencing for over 6 years some strange symptoms that seem to baffle my doctors and frustrate them and me. Recently, my neurologist ran a panel of blood tests and only two came back a little weird. One was the ant dsDNA and that one was in very low titer range of 1:10 and the deamidated gliadin peptide test which came back at 24 which is a weak positive range, 30 and above being in the strong positive range. My doc is convinced that I do not have lupus at all due to the low titers of the dsDNA and no rashes or arthritic body pains and he never mentioned anyhting about the deamidated gliadin peptide test. I am a little confused bu this test, as I had no idea what it even eant until I googled it and it said that it correlated with celiac disease... I had the deamidated gliadin peptide IgA which came back at 4 in the normal range, Ttg, which is normal. I am just wondering with a positive result on the deamidated gliadin igG do I have any business investigating celaic or gluten sensitivity or can this test indicate other diseases? Any input is very welcome, and thanks in advance.
