Well mine is pretty inconsistent with food. I can have redness and peeling after eating a certain thing today, but if i try it another time it wont happen, and i can have redness and peeling right after i wake up and have not eaten a single thing.

 

I do think about vitamin deficiency but the dermatologists i go to just laughed at that idea. I had hives come and go but i am on antihisamine 24/7 now. If i stop taking a pill for 2 days i have very bad itching all over my body, even my scalp. I have not had any skin problems till recently which was why i thought it was weird but the dermatologists here are not helpful at all. Only thing i was allergic to since i was young was just dust.

 

It could be an immune system problem though, where your body just constantly attacks itself due to whatever reason. But yeah i agree doctors are still learning.

Doctors don’t know anything about this. I’ve looked into Anthony Williams and it possibly being related to Epstein bar virus or vitamin a toxicity. When I drink celery daily it seems to heal everything so that I can eat “bad foods again” but when I stop the celery for a week things start to come back so... I don’t know what the heck is up. 

My lips been peeling for 4 years. I don’t know what doctors do with their time really.

I’ve had this for the last 4 years constant peeling of the lips. 

Celery juice recommended by Anthony Williams helped me but I haven’t been able to keep the celery going I keep going and stopping. 

I think jt may have to do with the liver whether it’s Epstein bar virus or vitamin a toxicity.

still trying these things out.

I read where celiac can cause more skin cancer. A matter of fact, it was how one lady got diagnosed from having several bouts of skin cancer lesions. I myself, am having the exact same problem and have already lost an eyebrow to skin cancer. I am pending a diagnosis for Celiac as I have always had several symptoms but really feeling nervous about my lip issue now. They just burn. I know what you're going through and it's very frustrating.

How is your vitamin D level?  Vitamin D deficiency is common with Celiac Disease.

Decreased expression of vitamin D receptor may contribute to the hyperimmune status of patients with acquired aplastic anemia  "In conclusion, decreased expression of VDR might contribute to the hyperimmune status of AA and appropriate vitamin D supplementation could partly correct the immune dysfunction"

      Let me hasten to add that if you will be undergoing an endoscopy/biopsy, it is critical that you do not begin efforts to reduce gluten beforehand. Doing so will render the results invalid as it will allow the small bowel lining to heal and, therefore, obscure the damage done by celiac disease which is what the biopsy is looking for.

      That’s a really tough situation. A few key points: as mentioned, a gluten challenge does require daily gluten for several weeks to make blood tests meaningful, but negative tests after limited exposure aren’t reliable. Dermatitis herpetiformis can also be tricky to diagnose unless the biopsy is taken from normal-looking skin next to a lesion. Some people with celiac or DH don’t react every time they’re exposed, so lack of symptoms doesn’t rule it out. Given your history and family cancer risk, this is something I’d strongly discuss with a celiac-experienced gastroenterologist or dermatologist before attempting a challenge on your own, so risks and benefits are clearly weighed.

      https://celiac.org/glutenexposuremarkers/    yes, two hours after accidents ingesting gluten I am vomiting and then diarrhea- then exhaustion and a headache. see the article above- There is research that shows our reactions.

      Concerning the EMA positive result, the EMA was the original blood test developed to detect celiac disease and has largely been replaced by the tTG-IGA which has a similar reliability confidence but is much less expensive to run. Yes, a positive EMA is very strong evidence of celiac disease but not foolproof. In the UK, a tTG-IGA score that is 10x normal or greater will often result in foregoing the endoscopy/biopsy. Weaker positives on the tTG-IGA still trigger the endoscopy/biopsy. That protocol is being considered in the US but is not yet in place.
