eczema or dh?

Hi, 
I've got redness and sores on my skin just about everywhere.  It's all up my arms, on my hands, my back, my neck, near my eyebrow.  My skin is quite dry, and flaky, and I do get weeping sores at times, but I do have raised bumps as I believe may be more common for DH.  My neck does seem to be quite red though and dry, and it's been this way for at least a month, I believe.  Do you think this sounds like DH or do you think it's far more likely it's some type of eczema or another form of dermatitis?

Do you have celiac disease?

I can't say a thing based upon what little info. you gave. You don't say if you have celiac disease or if you suspect it. You don't say what this rash feels like. You don't state any other symptoms you have that you think may be related.

You can go get a dh biopsy IF you have been eating gluten every day for the past 12 weeks. Read threads in this forum to find out exactly how the dh biopsy is done.

I'll check out the biopsy.  Thank you.

Just wanted to add ... if you are confirmed to have celiac you should look into the Fasano diet. It has made an incredible difference for this long-time DH sufferer.

      It looks like their most recent clinical trial just finished up on 5-22-2025.

      Dear Scott,  please check the link https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT05574010?intr=KAN-101&rank=1 What do you think about it?

      KAN‑101 is still very much in development and being actively studied. It has not been dropped—rather, it is advancing through Phases 1 and 2, moving toward what could become the first disease‑modifying treatment for celiac disease. https://anokion.com/press_releases/anokion-announces-positive-symptom-data-from-its-phase-2-trial-evaluating-kan-101-for-the-treatment-of-celiac-disease/

      Thiamine interacts with all the other B vitamins.  Thiamine and B 6 make a very important enzyme together. With more thiamine and other vitamins available from the supplements your body is absorbing the ones you need more of.  The body can control which vitamins to absorb or not.  You're absorbing more and it's being transported through the blood.   It's common to have both a Thiamine and a Pyridoxine deficiency.  Keep taking the B Complex. This is why it's best to stop taking supplements for six to eight weeks before testing vitamin levels.
