Get to the root of digestive symptoms
Two of the most common, treatable causes of long-running gut symptoms — coeliac disease and H. pylori infection — can be screened for in a single blood draw. A clinician reviews your results and explains what they mean. £177 · clinician-reviewed results · CQC-regulated.
When your gut isn't right
Persistent digestive symptoms are common and often have a clear, treatable cause. This panel is a sensible first step if you recognise any of these.
Ongoing gut symptoms
Chronic bloating, abdominal discomfort, diarrhoea or constipation that won't settle.
Unexplained low iron
Coeliac disease is a common hidden cause of iron deficiency anaemia.
Family history of coeliac
First-degree relatives of someone with coeliac disease have around a 10% risk.
Heartburn or ulcers
Dyspepsia, reflux or a history of peptic ulcer disease linked to H. pylori.
Other autoimmune conditions
Coeliac disease is more common in type 1 diabetes and autoimmune thyroid disease.
Before going gluten-free
Coeliac testing is only accurate while you're still eating gluten — test first.

Coeliac screen
Tissue transglutaminase IgA (tTG-IgA) is the primary NICE-recommended coeliac screening test.
tTG-IgAIgA check
Total IgA is measured to make sure a coeliac result isn't falsely negative.
Total IgAH. pylori
Antibodies to Helicobacter pylori, the bacterium behind most peptic ulcers.
H. pyloriClear next steps
A clinician interprets the results and advises whether endoscopy or treatment is sensible.

Understanding your Digestive Health results
Each result in your Digestive Health is reviewed by a clinician before release. Below is a plain-English guide to the key markers included in this panel.
Key Biomarkers
This panel assesses the key markers relevant to digestive health. Each result is reviewed by a clinician who will flag any values outside the expected range for your age and sex.
Reference Ranges
Reference intervals are population-derived and should be interpreted alongside your symptoms and clinical history — a result within range does not always exclude pathology, and a mildly out-of-range result may be clinically insignificant in isolation.
Reference ranges vary between laboratories and are influenced by age, sex, and other individual factors. This information is for educational purposes only and does not replace a clinical consultation. The Vesey reviews every result before it is released to you.
