Celiac testing guide

Celiac disease blood test online in Virginia and West Virginia

This guide is for a screening blood test while still eating gluten, not for dehydration, severe belly pain, or a diagnosis or treatment visit.

Start online

Start a $59 online review for Celiac disease testing.

A physician-ordered celiac blood test (tissue transglutaminase IgA with total IgA) through the lab pathway for adults with symptoms or a family history that raise the question, who are still eating gluten. A positive result is explained through the portal and routed to gastroenterology for a confirming biopsy. This lane does not diagnose or treat celiac disease itself.

If treatment is appropriate, your physician can send a non-controlled prescription to your pharmacy and provide portal instructions for the next step.

Start the request on the website, answer the fit questions, and choose the response window you want.

When appropriate, non-controlled prescriptions can be sent to your pharmacy, and a basic work or school note can be included at physician discretion.

I already went gluten-free — can I still test?

Not accurately. Being gluten-free for more than a few weeks can make the blood test falsely negative. A gluten challenge or a different pathway is needed first — mention this so the physician can advise you.

What happens if the test is positive?

A positive result is explained through the portal and referred to gastroenterology for a confirming biopsy. Do not start a gluten-free diet before that biopsy, or it can be harder to confirm the diagnosis.

Does a negative test rule out celiac disease?

Not if you were already gluten-free when tested, and rarely, a person with known IgA deficiency needs a different test. Tell the physician about either situation.
