Dear Tex,

Here's an update about my very good Enterolab test (see upper in the post).
I made the tests to be sure I had no igA defficiency. It seems I have not.

As a reminder here are my Enterolab results ( I was not taking Entocort when I did my test 8 weeks ago ) :

Comprehensive Gluten/Antigenic Food Sensitivity Stool Panel
Fecal Anti-gliadin IgA 11 Units (Normal Range is less than 10 Units)
Fecal Anti-casein (cow’s milk) IgA 4 Units (Normal Range is less than 10 Units)
Fecal Anti-ovalbumin (chicken egg) IgA 5 Units (Normal Range is less than 10 Units)
Fecal Anti-soy IgA 8 Units (Normal Range is less than 10 Units)
Mean Value 11 Antigenic Foods 2 Units (Normal Range is less than 10 Units)

And here are my antinuclear HEP2 test & IgG, IgA & IgM tests (I did them 2 weeks ago - I was under 5 weeks of Entocort 9mg)

HEP2 : 1/80

igG : 8,58 g/L (ref.7,00-16,00)
igA : 1,56 g/L (ref.0,70-4,00)
igM : 0,84 g/L (0,40 - 2,30 )

It seems I Have no defficience so my Enterolab results should be true.

Being Gluten-free has really helped me of course but I'm still not symptoms free. In a previous post, I thought Creon helped me (pancreas) and the cause was elsewhere but it's not.

It's my 7th week under entocort 9mg.My next try will be LDN (thanks to the post Monique made).

Best,

Max

Hi Max,

Your result on the 11 antigenic foods test was 11, so some of those foods might be causing symptoms. Are you avoiding the foods that tested at 3+ and 2+ levels?

It is suspected that some of the hardest material known to science can be found in the skulls of GI specialists who insist that diet has nothing to do with the treatment of microscopic colitis.

Max,

My mistake. I could blame my it on my blurry vision still left over from the antibiotic reaction, but the truth is it was just a dumb mistake. I apparently wasn't paying attention to what I was reading.

You're right of course. At that level, none of those foods should cause any problems whatsoever.
