Hello, my name is Joana, sorry my English is not the best
5 months ago I'm having problems in genitas organs.
Initially began to feel a burning sensation in the genitals after putting several medications for fungi the situation has improved, but it starts to get  worse
In second phase I went to genecologista he sent me  to the dermatologist because I was diagnosed dermatitis medicated me with curtisona and Protopic past two months mucous have a normal appearance but a burning sensation continues.

I'm getting desperate, I went to a lot of doctors, they  told me it could be an autoimmune disease. I researched and I think may be the cedialac disease, I will do tests.
While walking causes me burning, I can not wear underwear,  I need help please!!
Does anyone have the same symptoms, or know of anything?

Thank you, please if you know something answer me. :(

Ouch.  My first thought was it could be a yeast (candida) infection.  That can cause a great deal of discomfort.

 

The rash associated with celiac disease is dermatitis herpetiformis (dh).  It is a horribly itchy rash that is very sensitive to gluten consumption.  We have a forum for dh here, so asking questions about it there could give you more information. https://www.celiac.com/forums/forum/26-dermatitis-herpetiformis/

 

To see if the rash is dh, a doctor will need to biopsy and test beside the rash.  You can also have blood tests done: tTG IgA, tTG IgG, DGP IgA, DGP igG, EMA IgA, total serum IgA and maybe the older AGA IgA and AGA IgG tests.  Do not eat gluten-free until testing is done.

 

I'm sure other with rash experience will offer more advice.  Best wishes.

I have to say it doesn't sound like classic Dermatitis Herpetiformis.

Welcome to the forum.  What country are you located in?

 

What you describe doesn't sound like a typical presentation of DH.  While it wouldn't hurt to get tested for that and Celiac disease, have you been tested for other things, such as Sexually Transmitted Diseases?  Have you had cultures done, where they can see if there is bacteria or yeast there?  It just seems like something may have been missed, such as a bad yeast infection perhaps.  I would see another doctor for a second opinion.

Research Lichen Sclerosus. It is a skin disease that some doctors classify as an autoimmune disorder. It mostly affects the genitals. Some get it on their chest. No one know why it happens. It happens mostly to women. There is no cure, but special hydrocortisone medication for it can relieve itching and some pain. It seems to affect those with hormonal issues like those with thyroid disease or menopausal hormone drops. You can not infect your partner.

A biopsy may be required.

I wish you well.

Hi everyone, my intolerance to gluten tests came back negative , but I gave positive bigotry bread yeast , I have seen on other blogs people who complain that by eating bread are burning with the genitals but will very little information about it . I will two weeks without eating bread, pasta, cereals, chocolates, drink milk or any alcoholic drink, basically just as fruit, soup, meat, fish .

My situation during these two weeks seemed to be improving , but it seems I was wrong, I still have a great ardor , when stray too walk my vagina ignites , today for example I did almost nothing and I have a big burning felling. I do not have fungi , itching , done a big variety of tests all come out negative. I am desperate please share you know .
Does anyone know how long I have to go without eating bread yeast to see results ?

Thank you

      I have my endoscopy on Thursday, has anyone had the procedure done with a cough? I don't have a continuous cough, but every now and then throughout the day I have sort of coughing episodes. They are a lot better than they were but I called endoscopy and they said to speak to my gp and my gp got back to me and said I need to ask endoscopy if its ok if I have it done still.  Help!

      Thank you so much, everyone. For the moment my doctor just has me taking iron but hopefully we can reconnect soon. I'm going to look into genetic testing, too. Great advice all around and I appreciate it--and you can bet I'm going off the PPIs!

      I walk fast for fitness, 4 to 6 km per day. I am also 74 years old. Apart from the Celiac challenge, my lifestyle is healthy. I had a sciatiac nerve pinching under my one foot, with inflamation in my whole shin. It was almost cured, when the other shin started paining and burning. I do stretches, use a natural cooling gel and rest my feet. Can Celiac cause muscle pains/inflamation, or is it just over-excercising?

      I recently started shopping at a nearby Trader Joe's store. I was surprised at the number and variety of (healthy) gluten-free options sold there. I must admit their low prices are also quite tempting. However, I am curious as to the labeling on all their packages. While none of their products are certified as gluten-free, many are identified as 'GLUTEN FREE' on the packaging. Are these items safe for celiacs? Has anyone tried Trader Joe's products and have there been any adverse reactions?

      HI, my doctor suggested one week of consuming gluten before blood tests.  I have been gluten free for 3 years.  Has anyone been through this and will I get exact results after one week of consuming gluten?  I don't even know if I can do this, if I get sick I am not sure if I can continue, any suggestions??  Thanks in advance.
