So I got my gluten sensitivity stool test results back today:
Fecal Anti-gliadin IgA 36 Units (Normal Range is less than 10 Units)
According to them, this means I need to avoid gluten. I'm not really surprised at the results. But they don't distinguish between gluten sensitivity and full-blown Celiac disease. Do stool test numbers correspond to blood test numbers?
I guess my next step is to have my GI doctor redo the Celiac blood test. I had a blood test done in November (and it was negative), but it wasn't valid because I'd been off gluten for several weeks. Now I've been eating gluten again for five weeks. I think I need to go eight weeks for a valid blood test, right? My birthday is in about three weeks, so I guess I'll eat a whole bunch of birthday cake and go out with a bang. LOL
