My doctor called my tTg IgA results “impressive”, but hasn’t diagnosed me yet
I'd been dealing with stomach issues for years (I'm 29yo), but they worsened in the past year. Food went right through me, and then I suddenly became very anemic. My doctor told me to take supplements, which helped with anemia symptoms, but my gut issues persisted. I went back 3 weeks later and told her what was going on, and that my uncle had celiac. She ran some tests, and my tTg IgA came back at 4,923. For reference, anything over 30 is considered "positive" for my providers' lab. I asked my doctor if this alone is enough to diagnose me with celiac. She said that she has spoken with a gastroenterologist as my Result is "an impressive lab result," and referred me to the same GI doc. I'm waiting for an appointment now, but a little nervous that they're not diagnosing with celiac yet. Could it mean it might be more serious than that? I also resent that she told me my lab result was "impressive" at 5pm on a Friday when I can't get any more answers for the whole weekend. Anyone had results that high for the same test? Really just looking for some comfort here, haha.
