WOW...i know its a few years old...the topic post....but yes this was ALL me...

 

thats why I couldnt figure it at first.....I originally got the big, raised, elongated type OVER AND OVER in the same spot....for months....i showed this to the docs...to no avail....

 

then the clusters....also the description of it eventually looking dried up....its kinda wierd...ones I was trying to save over time....are there, but look funny and old...and not current..

 

then a few months after THAT (where i am now), im not getting the huge ones so much...i am getting little tiny bumply ones...around the neckline and face....still liquid comes out...but these look more pimple like than the other ones...are those the bullous types i guess?  i wish i wish i wish i had known THEN to take pictures...i took them months later..but now what you see are scars...kinda outlines of where they were...i dont think my back will EVER come back....i used to have a beautiful neckline...sadly...i dont think ever again...you see all these vesicle type things....active or not....the outlines are stil there....but back THEN i couldnt get them tested.....but the descriptives from this book are great....i may like to read the whole book.

 

Thank you so much for the info.

      Has anyone had terrible TMJ/ Jaw Pain from undiagnosed Celiac?

      Some backup to my statement about gluten and milk. Some background. When my son was born in 1976 he was colicky from the beginning. When he transitioned to formula it got really bad. That's when we found the only pediactric gastroenterologist (in a population of 6 million that dealt with Celiac Disease (and he only had 14 patients with celiac disease...

      Shingles - Could It Be Related to Gluten/ Celiac

      I don't know of a connection. Lots of people who don't have celiac disease/gluten issues get shingles.

      Shingles - Could It Be Related to Gluten/ Celiac

      I’m 43, just newly diagnosed with a horrible case of shingles last week . They are all over my face , around my eye, ear , all in my scalp. Lymph nodes are a mess. Ear is a mess. My eye is hurting and sensitive. Pain has been a 10/10+ daily. Taking Motrin and Tylenol around the clock. I AM MISERABLE. The pain is unrelenting. I just want to cry. But Developing s...

      Some backup to my statement about gluten and milk. Some background.  When my son was born in 1976 he was colicky from the beginning.  When he transitioned to formula it got really bad.  That's when we found the only pediactric gastroenterologist (in a population of 6 million that dealt with Celiac Disease (and he only had 14 patients with celiac disease), who dianosed by biopsy and started him on Nutramegen.  Recovery was quick. The portion of gluten that passes through to breastmilk is called gliadin. It is the component of gluten that causes celiac disease or gluten intolerance. What are the Effects of Gluten in Breastmilk? Gliaden, a component of gluten which is typically responsible for the intestinal reaction of gluten, DOES pass through breast milk.  This is because gliaden (as one of many food proteins) passes through the lining of your small intestine into your blood. Can gluten transmit through breast milk?

My eye is hurting and sensitive. Pain has been a 10/10+ daily. Taking Motrin and Tylenol around the clock. I AM MISERABLE. The pain is unrelenting. I just want to cry.   But Developing shingles has me a bit concerned about my immune system which also has me wondering about celiac and if there’s a connection to celiac / gluten and shingles; particularly since I haven't been 💯 gluten free because of all the confusing test results and doctors advice etc., is there a connection here? I’ve never had shingles and the gluten/ celiac  roller coaster has been ongoing for a while but I’ve had gluten off and on the last year bc of all the confusion
