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.

      Meniers and celiac are they related

      Thanks Kitty for your guidance. I will do the test to see if I have nutrients deficiencies and at the same time re organize my diet to see if that helps with my vertigo and other symptoms.

      Yes, Vitamin D is frequently low in Celiac Disease and Meniere's both.  Ask for an Erythrocyte Transketolace test to check for thiamine insufficiency.  Diuretics can cause excess thiamine loss.  Benfotiamine is a form of thiamine that improves intestinal health.  Thiamine in the form TTFD (Tetrahydrofurfuryl Disulfide) helped improve my Meniere's syndrome.

      Kitty, to correct the anemia I got IV iron and B complex for 30 days. Then my next step will be test for nutritional deficiencies.

      Welcome to the forum, @nataliallano, There's a dozen or so vitamins and about as many minerals that our bodies need to live and thrive.  Our vitamins and minerals can become depleted in Celiac Disease due to malabsorption and inflammation, so we need to eat a nutritionally dense diet, and keep inflammation to a minimum.

      Inflammation and Menier’s disease link?

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      No, not if you've got an official diagnosis already.   Let's continue our conversation on this thread... Thanks
