Itching!

I am new at the gluten free diet, having been diagnosed with celiacs disease about a month ago. I have read that many people with celiacs disease also have a problem with milk. I am wondering if anyone could give me some insite or has had the same problem as me. Before being diagnosed with celiacs disease, I had rashes and my body itched all over all the time. I went on a gluten free/lactose free diet. The itches and rash disappeared. I started drinking milk again and a week later I am having the same problem with the itching and rashes. Does anyone know if milk can do that? Does anyone else have this issue? Or would the itching and rashes possibly be from something else?

Hi,

I know what you mean to itching all the time.. I am the same way... I was diagnosied about 6 weeks ago with Celiac...

Two years ago is when I had DH but at that time I did not know what it was other then an allergic reaction... It happened on my right knee while at work and boy did it burn, itch and sting all together... I had big welts on my knee so I made a dr appt right away and got off work early...

Even though I have been gluten free for about 6 weeks I am still tired all time and I still itch but without the big welts... I do have small rashes on my shoulders and parts of my arms...

Actually I don't remember itching this bad before I went Gluten free...

I'm like you and am not sure of what or why...

Sorry as for milk I'm not sure since I am fairly new like you but I would not put it past the milk to make you itch since you already have Celiac... There are a lot of blogs out there that can give you all kinds of info... You can also go to ask.com and see if you can find out...

Hope this helps

      Sounds like you are in the UK. With blood numbers that high, I thought docs in UK would give an official diagnosis without the biopsy. You should ask about that, so you can get support faster.  I'd try to find and print out anything that supports that in your country, get another appointment and take all of it with you. Even in the US now, some docs are doing this, my 19 year old step granddaughter got an official diagnosis here in US with just blood results a few months ago.

      Is soy sauce in Korea also made from wheat like it usually is in US? I'd be concerned that even if asking about gluten, they would not be aware of or think of some like that.

      That's a good idea. It can at least establish the potential for developing celiac disease and can help people decided between a celiac diagnosis and NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity). And it doesn't require a gluten challenge and can be had without a doctor's prescription.

      I have my endoscopy on Thursday, has anyone had the procedure done with a cough? I don't have a continuous cough, but every now and then throughout the day I have sort of coughing episodes. They are a lot better than they were but I called endoscopy and they said to speak to my gp and my gp got back to me and said I need to ask endoscopy if its ok if I have it done still.  Help!

      Thank you so much, everyone. For the moment my doctor just has me taking iron but hopefully we can reconnect soon. I'm going to look into genetic testing, too. Great advice all around and I appreciate it--and you can bet I'm going off the PPIs!
