She ran the panel she did because of our IGA history. I was tested a few years ago and was 1 point into the normal range. IMMUNOGLOBULIN A, QN, SERUM 82 mg/dL 87 - 352 mg/dLL 3 out of 7 of my kids have Selective IGA Deficiency and one has IgM Deficiency. T-TRANSGLUTAMINASE (TTG) IGG POSITIVE: 12 U/mL (Negative 0 - 5 Weak Positive 6 - 9 Positive >9) T-TRANSGLUTAMINASE (TTG) IGA : Weak Positive 6 (Negative 0 - 3 Weak Positive 4 - 10 Positive >10) Or is that a fairly standard wait time for Gastro?ĭEAMIDATED GLIADIN ABS, IGA was normal rangeĭEAMIDATED GLIADIN ABS, IGG 17 units out of 0 - 19 units, so normal Could it be something else or are the low positives likely because I hadn't been eating much? Should I try to find a GI that can get me in sooner? I would have to drive 3 to 5 hours away, but am considering it. Currently, my anemia is under control but I am B12 and D deficient. I have a long history of anemia, B and D deficiencies, lactose intolerance, and general poor health that has gotten worse over the years. No one ever bothered to check me for Celiac though. I did read that a positive TTG could indicate other things like lupus and Hashimotos but I have been tested for everything over the last 7 years, including MRIs for MS. I guess I am looking for feedback and information. I probably won't even get in for a scope until well after the new year. My Dr says I have Celiac and I have an appointment with a GI in December. I was mostly eating miso soup, popsicles, electrolyte drinks, and occasional toast and crackers. My numbers are not crazy high, but I had also barely been eating for 2 weeks and lost 13 lbs. I suggested Celiac testing since my 30-year-old son was recently diagnosed. I was already due for a bunch of labs so I asked my Dr if she had anything she could add. Urgent Care ran some stool tests that didn't show anything. I am used to feeling terrible but this really ran me down. I already have Fibromyalgia, osteoarthritis, and polyneuropathy(unknown cause). It has been another week and I am still getting to my version of 100%. Last month I had almost 2 weeks of diarrhea, bloating, fatigue, and dehydration.
