CSVV & Celiac?

Has anyone else experienced problems with CSVV (Cutaneous Small Vessel Vasculitis - commonly known as Hiker's Rash) and Celiac?  I am celiac (confirmed by EGD), strictly gluten-free and also recently diagnosed with CSVV which I understand is also an auto-immune issue. The CSVV has been getting progressively worse this summer and I can't find much info about it.

Anyone else have this odd lower leg vasculitis that is often triggered by exercise (here's an image from the internet of typical presentation)?  Have you found anything that helps? Thanks for any feedback

Hi,

Nope, not me anyway.  Some people with celiac get dermatitis herpetiformis (DH), which is a skin rash.  I am not sure DH looks like that picture though.  DH is itchy, and is affected by iodine in the diet also.  I would say it's a little itchy, but some other forum members might lynch me if I said its "a little itchy".

There is a sub-section of the forum specifically for DH.  If your rash is DH you might find some help there.

      I forgot to mention that exercise also triggers it, except for the period right before I tried the gluten challenge where I could do moderately intense workouts without getting this burning sensation and extreme fatigue for days afterwards.

      Hello everyone, I am 30 years old, female, and have Hashimoto's thyroiditis and suspected celiac disease (wasn't able to complete a gluten challenge, but have the symptoms and HLA-DQ8) or at least some kind of gluten sensitivity. When I first got diagnosed with Hashimoto's thyroiditis, I went on AIP and never reintroduced gluten. Whenever I would eat a little bit of gluten I would wake up feeling very old, achy, and unrested, with a burning sensation everywhere especially on my hip bones and chest area. It felt like severe inflammation. This would also happen during stressful times and times where I hadn't been sleeping well.  This symptom had decreased in intensity and...

      @MagsM Did your doctor do the DGP IgG and DGP IgA tests or the tTg IgG test.  It looks like he just tested total IgG.   Were you taking any medications or over the counter stuff before the test?  Some can suppress the immune system and cause false negatives.
