It Wasn't Dh!

I had a blistering, oozing rash on my abdomen for five months which I thought for sure was DH. I changed all my skin care and make-up, stopped eating out and became EXTREMELY careful with my food at home.(drove my family nuts) Just recently I read someone's thread about having a nickel allergy. I stopped wearing jeans and my belt and it healed completely. Thank God it's not DH! Thank you (don't remember who posted it) for posting the info!!!

I'm glad it's not DH, and that it's all healed. I get rashes, and know how annoying they are.

But if you have celiac disease, you SHOULD be extremely careful with your food and use only gluten-free personal care products, anyway.

By the way, I love your avatar!

I have had a nickel allergy since I was a kid. I have become more sensitive over the years. I just found concepts jewelry online. It would be nice to wear earrings again. I plan to buy some next week and dress up for the holidays.

I haven't actually been tested for nickel allergy but I can only wear 14 kt gold earrings. Not being able to have the metal from my jeans and belt on my skin leads me to think it's nickel. I guess it could be another kind of metal. Don't know for sure......but I am staying away from it.

I may try a pair of nickel free earrings.

      Constant low back, abdominal and pelvic pain!

      By Aussienae · Posted

      Mine is definitely triggered by inflammation and stress! I do also have arthritis in my spine, but the pain is more in my pelvic area. Im sure i have other food intolerances or other autoimmune isues but the more I focus on it and see doctor after doctor, it just gets worse.  Best thing is get of Gluten! (I also avoid lactose). Try to limit stress and anything that causes inflammation in your body.

      Constant low back, abdominal and pelvic pain!

      By ButWhatCanIEat · Posted

      Good morning,   I got an email about replies to this post. Some of my doctors had blamed a slipped disc for the pain I had and that contributes, but after meeting with a gastroenterologist AGAIN and trying some lifestyle modifications, I found out I have IBS and can't tolerate corn or excessive fructose to any degree. Cutting out corn AFTER having cut out all gluten containing products was a real pain but I feel much better now!

      Isolated DPG-Iga

      By trents · Posted

      So, I contacted Scott Adams, the author of that article and also the creator/admin of this website, and pointed out to him the need to clarify the information in the paragraph in question. He has now updated the paragraph and it is clear that the DGP-IGA does serve the purpose of circumventing the false negatives that IGA deficiencies can generate in the tTG-IGA antibody test.

      Lymph nodes

      By Soleihey · Posted

      Has anyone experimenced enlarged lymph nodes with celiac? Both in the neck and groin area. Imaging of both areas have said that lymph nodes are reactive in nature. However, they have been present for months and just wondering how long this may take to go down. Been gluten-free for about two months. Blood counts are normal.
