Another appt

I called another allergist today after being up all night itching. He is running a lot of blood work. One being a celiac panel. I didn't know he was going to run that heck I didn't know I was going to make the appt. I've been using steroid cream on my vaginal area for 2 days. Hopefully it's a small enough amount to not mess Up any results. After this test I'm done. Done with doctors and testing and I'll figure it out on my own. He didn't know what it was but at least was willing to figure it out. That's more then I can say for the other doctors. He gave me some cream, Elidel, and want me to take allergy medicine. And eat a diet that is anti inflammatory. If it works...GREAT! if not I guess I'll cut out out gluten and see if that works

I remember Elidel! Brings back memories..... of it not working for my dh.

My derm diagnosed it, yet  didn't give me the right med nor told me it meant I had celiac. 

Make sure they biopsy next to a lesion, not on top of one.

good luck!!

      Products that help to break down potential accidental gluten exposure

      GliadinX is such a product and many/some report it really helps. In the interest of disclosure, the company that produces it is one of our sponsors.

      Occasionally eating out in restaurants means that there is potential cross contamination in spite of ordering a gluten free dish. What enzyme supplements can the forum recommend that would help with potential cross contamination? Something I could take before I start eating. I used to order Wheat Rescue from Microbiome lab, but it is not available anymore.

      Hi  - Anyone have any experience with these? I bought them at Costco thinking they must be gluten-free, but now I see Natural Flavors and Spice in the ingredients. There's no Gluten Free labeling. However the Costco site and two other sites say it's gluten free. Anyone know?

      Restaurants that offer gluten free no cross contamination

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Yes, I doubt you can find a perfectly safe restaurant--perhaps a dedicated gluten-free restaurant, but in general, very few of them exist, and they tend to be in larger cities. Super sensitive celiacs should probably just avoid eating out.
