A member asked:
I have fecal anti-gliadin antibodies. through blood tests there was no sign of celiac. my secretory iga was a bit low as well. what does this mean? should i be completely gluten free? or just low doses? and what does secretory iga indicate? thank you?

IgA is the group of antibodies that deal mostly with gut issues. If your natural IgA levels are low, the typical celiac screening blood tests are not reliable for celiac markers. I would discuss this with your treating doc who has your full history/exam and testing data.
