Yep, blood tests are good but not perfect.
I used to hear in a perfect world that anti-endomysial and anti-tTG should be consistent, but they aren't always. Which is why a thorough doctor will run them all. I know in our case, only the anti-tTG was run, yet I believe it can go both ways (negative anti-tTG and positive anti-endomysial) It is also why it makes me a little crazy that some of our major celiac centers (like a very windy one) suggest all is needed is a single anti-tTG test. Recommendations for testing come down to picking what is considered the BEST TEST OVERALL to contain cost, but it is a shame that it comes down certain people falling through the cracks because no test is 100% accurate.

Valerie,
Well, your daughter's case highlights TWO things. One is that more sensitivity is gained by running the entire panel of tests, and two is that negative testing one year can turn positive a year later. I'm glad you did pester your doctor! Cara
