You could have a sensitivity and/or you could have an immunoglobulin A deficiency, with or without celiac/gluten sensitivity. This is not the correct forum to adequately answer your question but I invite you to visit my blog at: glutendoctors.blogspot.com. I will be posting an article on this very topic within a couple of days. Please do check it out - it may create a positive impact upon your health status.
The endomysial a& tissue tranglutaminase are both blood tests and only accurate in severe celiac. They're not fool-proof - 15% of patients with celiac will test negative for them.
The biopsy is an invasive procedure used to diagnose the villous atrophy seen in celiac.
The salivary and blood gliadin antibody tests are accurate (not perfect though) for gluten sensitivity.
Gluten sensitivity must be diagnosed sooner - to prevent many secondary diseases.
ok, im confused. Are there 3 different types of bloodtest for Gluten-intolerance?
First thing is the biopsy you mentioned, which isnt a bloodtest, then you mentioned the endomycial antibody bloodtest and the tissue gluaminase antibody blood test.
Then after that you said the next thing was the salivary and other blood test, im confused, what is the other blood test?
my Immunoglobulin A is <4 and it should be between 81- 463. Does that mean i have a sensitivity?

ok, thank you.
I recently had this bloodtest for Gluten-intolerance, the results read..
R TISSUE TRANSGLUTAMINASE
(SMO) -Normal, no action
Tissue transglutaminase IgA level
-Not detected
Which blood test was this from the ones you mentioned? And what does that mean?
