Is This Dh? And How Long After Glutening?

So, I think I may have been glutened a last Wednesday or Thursday, and today - Sunday, I'm noticing a number of red spots and even lines on my forearms and the top of my back.  I've been gluten-free ever since my diagnosis in March and my follow up endo and blood work showed near full recovery of my villi.  I don't recall getting DH before dx, but i do remember random hives and welts and these lines on my back.

 

They aren't really itchy - is this DH or something else?  Is it Celiac related at all?  So odd how these just pop up, but it seems kind of late for them to show.  Is 4 or 5 days post glutening normal?

 

Thanks.

DH is generally a very itchy rash, like wanting to rip the skin off itchy. Many years after my Celiac diagnosis I now get a DH rash on my legs as part of a contamination reaction. Restaurants always seem to make me sick.

Next time you get the rash, go see a dermatologist. They can determine if it is DH or something else.

You mentioned red whelts. It might be wise to have an allergist verify you have not developed an allergic to something like foods.

      My question is it possible that Barley is OK > I know wheat gives me stomach pain, rash, and severe diarrhea.

      Bread has about 8 g of protein per 100 g, so a piece of bread weighing 125 mg contains 10 mg of gluten. Bread has a density of about 0.25 g/ml, so 0.5 ml of bread contains 10 mg of gluten - i.e. a bread ball 1 cm in diameter. I think it would be unlikely to ingest this much from throwing bread out for the birds.

      Sciatica came to mind for me as well. You might want to get some imaging done on your C-spine.

      Maybe this is sciatica? When mine acts up a little, I switch my wallet from one back pocket to the other. this isn't a substitute for more serious medical help, but for me it's a bandaid.

      OK so I just learned something completely new about this for the first time in years, that is REALLY WEIRD. One of my nerves that likes to "burn" or whatever is doing it every time I bow my head! I mean it is completely repeatable. Literally every time. Once my head goes beyond a certain angle *boom*. Nerve goes mental (lower right leg pain). What the hell. I've never seen a direct trigger such as this before that I can recall. The pain was the usual type I get from this problem - I suspect somehow the head movement was interrupting descending inhibition processes, causing the pain to leak through somehow.
