If You Break Open Your Blisters ...

I get relief from my blisters if I break them open and put the triamcinolone.

Does this make them spread? I can not use dapasone.

Thanks for you advice.

I have no idea, does it seem to be spreading when you do this?

When I had a rash on my arms it spread once I started scratching it. I have no idea if it was DH though. Never found out for sure.

I think it spreads on me. I can feel the liquid on my body. If there is a large area,

I shower and re-lotion. I think it helps.

It didn't spread it on me when I had DH. But it created sores.

It seems like the only relief I get is from breaking the sores open, but then they just get bigger and fill back up with liquid. So I end up tearing off the skin, letting it scab over and eventually heal. After doing this over and over you end up with scars. But if I do nothing, they just get worse to the point that if anything touches them, it hurts. I am pregnant, so I just went off dapsone and I am in hell. I have been gluten-free for a week (still learning about cross-contamination and other hidden culprits), and I am covered in blisters. I'm hoping it won't last much longer. And I am sooooo glad it is no longer shorts and tank top weather where I live!!!

      Legumes can be a source of wheat contamination, but I assume that you use versions labelled "gluten-free."

      You may want to look into Benfotiamine, which is the fat soluble version of B1.

      Be sure all testing is completed before going gluten-free, that is, unless you are certain that gluten is the culprit and have decided not to eat it again. This article has some detailed information on how to be 100% gluten-free, so it may be helpful (be sure to also read the comments section.):

      As a side note, it seems that medical science has evolved in the past 5-6 years regarding Celiac Disease, and I am now catching up. It seems that anything that disrupts the microbiome sufficiently enough can--in genetically susceptible individuals--lead to Celiac Disease. I have been reading now that antibiotics, excessive simple carbohydrates such as refined sugars and starches, the manner of birth such as C-section vs vaginal delivery, the diversity of one's diet, the presence of certain bacteria or viruses, can all contribute to microbiome dysbiosis, which can lead to Celiac. This is fascinating research.
