Celiac Fever And Rash Any Ideas?


bashalove

1,004 views

My daughter is 15 months and has had a fever running between 99 - 101 DEGREES for the past 2 months. She has also had a rash that is recurrent appearing on her ankle, back, belly and armpits. Our family has a history of celiac disease. We are already treating her as if she has it. Both my son and I are also celiac positive. What we are wondering is if she is having a reaction to the dog's food or my husbands food that is in the house that is not gluten free. So far we've been to an ENT (for supposed strep rash) and an infectious disease specialist who said it's a sun reaction. Just wondering if anyone has any thoughts as far as low grade fevers and rashes for gluten exposure. Let me know.

You didn't mention if they considered DH the dermalogical "sister malady" to Celiac. The best way to tell is that it will be exactly symetrical. For instance, I had bumps that were mirror images of the ones on the opposite hand, knee, cheek etc. My Dr. said gluten can be in the systems for up to a year after it is ingested. I had been gluten free for over 6 months. I don't know about the fever. I din't notice fever and haven't read about babies and DH. Good luck.
