Hi I had the initial blood work done and it was neg . But , I'm told if you have the DH rash a good % won't show up . This is my rash ..I thought my dog gave me poison oak ...I took prednisone for 4 days . And now I know a biopsy would be neg . ( I'll let my derm know on tue ) I'll spare you any pics of my bottom lol ... The bumps on my bottom don't itch like my arms and face do , does that mean it's not DH?

Hi I was wondering if this looks like a DH rash to anyone? I know it has so many variations . I am so frustrated....  I had a neg blood test and honestly when this started popping up I thought my dog gave me poison oak. My doc gave me prendisone for a 5 day span, it took care of the spot around my eye (on set it burned more than itched) but, I have this on my bottom as well ( i will spare you any photos lol ) however , that particular area does not seem to itch half as bad as my arms , neck , face or legs does that mean its not DH? . I go see my derm on tue morning (i will let him know that the meds will give a false neg) . thanks for any info.

Yes, it does but there are lots of rashes that look alike. What you have said about the way the rash acts is more telling & it could very well be dh. The fact that it doesn't itch as bad on your bum does not mean it isn't dh.

It is possible, although not common to have an allergic (histamine) reaction to the DH reaction. Two separate things, even if simular.

Mitchgam, will you please stop!? One of the rules on this forum is that things posted must be able to be backed up with scientific evidence. You have consistantly refused to show any scientific studies showing the things you allege. On top of that, you refuse to read any of the studies I and others have posted that prove you are wrong in almost everything you say about DH. We are here to HELP people, not to give them myths and bogus information!

Mitchgam, you have indicated before that your issue is a wheat allergy.  That is a completely different issue than celiac disease and DH.  Therefore, your advice is not going to apply to most people who are only having Celiac Disease/DH problems.

      Help I’m cross contaminating myself,

      By Rogol72 · Posted

      I cut out the rice because it was affecting my stomach at the time ... not necessarily dermatitis herpetiformis. It was Tilda Basmati Rice, sometimes wholegrain rice. I was willing to do whatever it took to heal. Too much fiber also disagrees with me as I have UC.

      Is this celiac?

      By trents · Posted

      But you didn't answer my question. When you consume gluten, is there an identifiable reaction within a short period of time, say a few hours?

      Is this celiac?

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      You can still have celiac disease with negative blood test results, although it's not very common:  Clinical and genetic profile of patients with seronegative coeliac disease: the natural history and response to gluten-free diet: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5606118/  Seronegative Celiac Disease - A Challenging Case: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC9441776/  Enteropathies with villous atrophy but negative coeliac serology in adults: current issues: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34764141/

      I am only wondering why you would need to cut out rice? I've never heard of rice being any issue in those with DH.

      Does anyone here also have Afib

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      My mother has celiac disease and was diagnosed with Afib around 8 months ago. She's 81 and around 2 months ago had ablation therapy done, which is a very common procedure to treat this, and has been out of Afib 95% of the time since then. Apparently the full effects of this treatment don't kick in for 90 days, so the doctors expect her recovery to possibly reach 100%. Be sure to discuss this with your doctor.
