Default Double DQ1 but negative stool and blood tests

Could anyone provide some insight on this?

I've had negative tests for celiac (biopsy and blood tests), and enterolab results are below:
Fecal Anti-gliadin IgA: 9 Units
Fecal Anti-tissue Transglutaminase IgA: 3 Units
Quantitative Microscopic Fecal Fat Score: Less than 300 Units
Fecal Anti-casein (cow's milk) IgA: 8 Units
HLA-DQB1 Molecular analysis, Allele 1: 0501
HLA-DQB1 Molecular analysis, Allele 2: 0602
Serologic equivalent: HLA-DQ 1,1 (Subtype 5,6)

My symptoms (severe acid reflux (LRPD) resulting in laryngospasm and voice issues, also bloating) seem to be relieved with a GF diet (although I have only made attempts for about 6 weeks at the most at any given time before I give up). I am also lactose intolerant, and have mild asthma.

The main question I have: given that I have 2 copies of the gluten sensitivity gene and also have symptoms that appear to be resolved with a GF diet, why would all of my tests suggest that I do not have any issues? Could it be that I do have an intolerance despite negative fecal results (it seems that I would be a rare case).

Thanks for any insight!
