Is there anything can can cause a positive ttga blood test other than coeliac disease? my test has come back positive twice, but biopsy negative...

Unaware of: A positive blood test alone does not make a diagnosis for a disease but likely points out that you are at higher risk to develop gluten intolerance. We treat the patients and not a lab test.
