Do I Have Celiac Disease? (Please See Picture)

Hi, I greatly appreciate your time.  I've been having weird rashes for the last few months from time to time.  The last couple days all of a sudden I developed this rash on my left arm only (very little on my right arm).  It's very itchy and it's small bumps that are elevated.  It feels like what I remember poison ivy feeling like when I was a kid.  A couple of months ago I had a nasty rash on my stomach and chest and patches on my legs.  My doctor said it was poison oak and sent me to dermotologist who said the same thing.  It took a long time to get rid of and I was on strong anitbiotics and steroids.  Anyway here is a picture of my latest rash.  I have been putthing Sarna on it for the last few days which is soothing but doesn't seem to be improving the condition.  It has not gotten better or worse in the last couple days.  Like I said it is quite itchy but I haven't broken the skin (yet).  Here is a picture I just took of it.  Reading on the internet I came to the info about Coeliac disease and reaction to gluten and this sounds a lot like what I'm experiencing.  I did eat a lot of pizza around the night before this broke out! 

 

Thanks again for taking a look for me!

James

I posted one but can't remember how I did it.  LOL   Most upload photos to a photo site like photo bucket.  DH presents symmetrically, ie  both arms, both sides of back, both knees, etc.

      Thank you that’s really helpful, hopeful won’t have to have a biopsy.

      That means the normal range (i.e. not celiac disease) would be a result less than 14.99.  Your result is WAY above that. Some gastroenterologists would diagnose that as celiac disease even without a confirming biopsy because it is more than ten times the top of the normal range.

      Hi everyone. Back in 2022 I had blood work drawn for iga ext gliadin. Since then I’ve developed worse stomach issues and all other health issues. My doctor just said cut out gluten. He did no further testing. Please see my test results attached. I just need some direction cause I feel so ill and the stomach pain is becoming worse. Can this test show indications for other gastrointestinal diseases?

      Thank you. These were the results TTG ABS NUMERICAL: > 250.0 U/mL [< 14.99]  Really don’t understand the results!

      Clearly from what you've said the info on Dailymed is much more up to date than the other site, which hasn't been updated since 2017. The fact that some companies might be repackaging drugs does not mean the info on the ingredients is not correct.
