Blood test results

[feelingfedup2024]

Hello all!
is anyone able to tell me is this normal? dr says it is? Thanks

Different labs have different sensitivity but less than 4.0 is considered normal so you are well below that. Why don’t you trust what the doc is saying?

The normal range states it is 0.0- 10 and your results are 0.2. So this is a normal result.

Thank you all.

Only because its on the lowest bit of the range…I have had issues with diarrhea for a couple years, and wondered if it was connected and whether there was any point in speaking to the doctor.

I had a result of either 40 or 70 (can’t remember which now) on that test and was told no further action was needed, so I’d say it’s fine. I think I read the result would need to be much, much higher to indicate an issue

Completely normal. A low result has no meaning other than you don't have coeliac disease

Thanks for your help everyone x

Had you been eating plenty of gluten in the run up to the test? It's a negative test for coeliac disease but you can get false negatives if you haven't been eating gluten daily for several weeks before the test.

This is normal. The most important thing around doing these blood tests is your consumption of gluten. If you haven’t been eating at least 2 slices of bread for at least 2 weeks prior your blood tests, then your results can be a false negative.
Writing this as a clinician.

I had this but was convinced it would be positive for gluten intolerance. I am allergic to something but they don’t know what it is.

I think you need to read the difference between allergies and intolerances. It might help understand your symptoms better. Meaning this kindly.
