I was wondering if any of you could help me with a question I have about my
bloodwork. I was tested for the whole celiac panel. I got the Antigiladin IgA
(0.43 Negative on scale of o-0.90), Antigiladin IgG (1.40 POSITIVE on scale of
0-0.90), TRAnsglutaminase IgG (4.0 Negative on scale of 0-19.9),
Transglutaminase IgA (8.6 Negative on scale of 0-19.9) and IgA with a
number score of 298 with a scale range of 68-378mg/dl being "normal".
So, since I only got one single positive, could it be a false positive? Does it
seem likely? Would you recommend getting the gut biopsy done? Lastly, if so,
how much did it cost those of you who don't have the best health insurance?
Sure appreciate any input. I am not a typical case of celiac, i have hardly any
intestinal symptoms. Mine are all neurological and skin issues.
My sincere thanks to all of you!!
