Lab results, not sure it's a complete test....?
 
Hey all.

Recently tested for celiac with blood work and here are my results.

Gliadin IgA antibodies. .8
Gliadin IgG antibodies < .4

Tissue transglutaminase IgA AB .4
Tissue transglutaminase IgG AB <.6

Immunoglobulin a 271

Some things that I read indicate this is inconclusive because it is so low? Dr says it is negative without a doubt.

It's hard to know--
 
--without the reference ranges for the tests listed (although going by the usual reference ranges I am familiar with, this would be considered to be a negative serological result . . .)

Also remember, up to 20% of biopsy-proven celiacs (as per the Gluten File accumulated material) are serologically negative on celiac tests.
