Lip Inflammation, Constant Peeling And Redness

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"

      I don't know of a connection. Lots of people who don't have celiac disease/gluten issues get shingles.

      I’m 43, just newly diagnosed with a horrible case of shingles last week . They are all over my face , around my eye, ear , all in my scalp. Lymph nodes are a mess. Ear is a mess. My eye is hurting and sensitive. Pain has been a 10/10+ daily. Taking Motrin and Tylenol around the clock. I AM MISERABLE. The pain is unrelenting. I just want to cry.   But Developing shingles has me a bit concerned about my immune system which also has me wondering about celiac and if there’s a connection to celiac / gluten and shingles; particularly since I haven't been 💯 gluten free because of all the confusing test results and doctors advice etc., is there a connection here? I’ve never had shingles and the gluten/ celiac  roller coaster has been ongoing for a while but I’ve had gluten off and on the last year bc of all the confusion

      There were some interesting talks, particularly Prof Ludvig Stollid's talk on therapeutics for coeliac disease.    https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLRcl2mPE0WdigRtJPvylUJbkCx263KF_t

      Thank you @trents for letting me know you experience something similar thanks @knitty kitty for your response and resources.  I will be following up with my doctor about these results and I’ll read the articles you sent. Thanks - I really appreciate you all.

      You're right, doctors usually only test Vitamin D and B12.  Both are really important, but they're not good indicators of deficiencies in the other B vitamins.  Our bodies are able to store Vitamin B12 and Vitamin D in the liver for up to a year or longer.  The other B vitamins can only be stored for much shorter periods of time.  Pyridoxine B 6 can be stored for several months, but the others only a month or two at the longest.  Thiamine stores can be depleted in as little as three days.  There's no correlation between B12 levels and the other B vitamins' levels.  Blood tests can't measure the amount of vitamins stored inside cells where they are used.  There's disagreement as to what optimal vitamin levels are.  The Recommended Daily Allowance is based on the minimum daily amount needed to prevent disease set back in the forties when people ate a totally different diet and gruesome experiments were done on people.  Folate  requirements had to be updated in the nineties after spina bifida increased and synthetic folic acid was mandated to be added to grain products.  Vitamin D requirements have been updated only in the past few years.   Doctors aren't required to take as many hours of nutritional education as in the past.  They're educated in learning institutions funded by pharmaceutical corporations.  Natural substances like vitamins can't be patented, so there's more money to be made prescribing pharmaceuticals than vitamins.   Also, look into the Autoimmune Protocol Diet, developed by Dr. Sarah Ballantyne, a Celiac herself.  Her book The Paleo Approach has been most helpful to me.  You're very welcome.  I'm glad I can help you around some stumbling blocks while on this journey.    Keep me posted on your progress!  Best wishes!
