Not usually: The test result confirm that the symptoms that you may have may be due to a gluten sensitivity. Thus, if you have no symptoms, then you may not have gluten sensitivity, even though the test is positive.

TTG: I woul recommend having a ttg IgA antibody and possible duodenal bx , in doing so a diagnosis of celiac disease can be made. If if asymptomatic, there may be benefit from a gluten free diet especially if small bowel inflammation noted.
