Hi Dh sufferers i want to try and help a many Dh people as i can. I have dh it's one of the worst things you can get. My arms were covered and legs, head I'd have to get shower 4 times a night it would drive me crazy I'd itch all day. I was on dapsone for a short time until my wife told me about coconut oil.i started with on heat spoonful for the first week, the second week two spoonful keep on tha until the blisters have gone. You still need to eat gluten free also my wife uses it for cooing to I have no blisters unless cross contamination. The coconut oil has to be Virgin unrefined the blisters will start disappearing in a few months it works for me and I hope it works for you all.

Do you eat the coconut oil or put it on the lesions? I find it useful for dry skin and hair also when applied topically. 

Do you know you should limit iodine until your lesions are healed? Iodine can keep the antibodies active in the skin. I only had to drop iodized salt but others have had to limit high iodine foods also. I stopped getting lesions unless glutened within a couple months and within a couple years my lesions became just one or two tiny blisters when glutened. If your breakouts are still severe if you get CCd you may want to limit iodine for a bit. Do add it back in after your skin has calmed down as iodine is a needed nutrient.

if you want to gain the weight with coconut oil have it three times a day with a protein shake. Good luck

      Was the card itself lost or just the record or both?
    • Francis M
      We were flabergasted that the owner would not acknowledge a $50 e-gift card I purchased for my celiac wife. My wife tried to open it in the store and was informed there had been a system change and they could not find the record. No worries, she was told, just talk to management. Six months later, and numerous absurd back and forths, and the owner literally informs me there have been "bad actors", so she can't make good on this lost gift card. In other words, she accused me of lying and committing fraud... over $50! Please be careful with your orders and purchases here.

      Yes, some people do get withdrawal from gluten but gluten withdrawal doesn't usually cause gut pain. Maybe more like general body aches and discomfort. We have articles on gluten withdrawal on this forum. You might do a search for them. Applesauce is very acidic and some brands have added vitamin C (ascorbic acid) which makes them more acidic. This can damage the stomach lining if you eat it too often. Especially if your stomach lining is already compromised. Ibuprofen inhibits the body's ability to rebuild the stomach's protective mucosal lining. That's why it can cause peptic ulcers. As strange as it may sound, low level irritation/inflammation stimulates the body to rebuild the stomach lining. There are two steps in this rebuilding process known as COX 1 and COX 2. Ibuprofen represses both COX 1 and COX 2. Celecoxcib, a prescription anti inflammatory, inhibits only COX 2, making it less likely to cause damage to the gut lining.

      Do you or anyone know alot about ibuprofen  I wasn't sure if I was eating too much apple sauce.   Something is making my pain so much worse  I'm referring to the intense pins and needles in my feet and lower legs.  Jaw actually has tardive dystonia and muscle spasms throughout my back Almost like an opposite effect that a pain reliever would do. I'm fairly new to this. Whatever is going on seems to be worsening  Do people get a withdrawal effect from gluten?  It's extremely painful 😖  I'll post that question or research on the site  Thank you everyone for responding
