Mild, Short Lived Rash

I've yet to be diagnosed with Celiac Disease, but that's turning into quite a drawn out process.

I've gone back to being gluten free for the last week or so, and feeling better by the day. I used a knife and spread some butter on my gluten-free bread that had been used with regular white bread, and a couple if hours later I had a rash on my arm. It's not anything like DH from what I have read, but it was red, itchy, and small bumps appeared, though not pimple-like. It was very mild. Shortly after, the stomach symptoms started.

Six hours later and the rash is all but gone, but the stomach symptoms are still there. Is it possible to get a rash other than DH from gluten? One that would disappear so quickly? I just can't put it down to anything else. I have a picture of it, but don't know if I can post pictures here.

Yes, I believe it is possible. I've never shared pictures on here but there is an icon that says image. You can try that way. I hope you feel better soon.

      Thoughts? Non-endoscopic Celiac diagnosis in two year old

      By Samanthaeileen1 · Posted

      Okay that is really good to know. So with that being positive and the other being high it makes sense she diagnosed her even without the endoscopy. So glad we caught it early. She had so many symptoms though that to me it was clear something was wrong.   yeah I think we had better test us and the other kids as well.

      One doctor suggested it, but then seemed irritated when I asked follow-up questions. Oh well—

      @GlorietaKaro, your respiratory reactions to gluten make me wonder if there might also be an allergic (anaphylaxis) component at work here.

      Thanks to both of you for your responses!  Sadly, even after several years of very strict gluten avoidance, I remember the symptoms well enough that I am too frightened to risk a gluten challenge— heartbeat and breathing problems are scary— Scott, thank you for the specific information— I will call around in the new year to see if I can find anyone. In the meantime, I will carry on has I have been— it’s working! Thanks also for the validation— sometimes I just feel crushed by disbelief. Not enough to make me eat gluten though—
