Could This Be DH? Picture Included

Where is the DH photo bank on here that I've heard mentioned? Also, I sometimes get bumps on my face that sometimes itch and then ooze and crust. Others just go away without any problems. They aren't really in clusters but I usually get 2 or 3 scattered around. Now, I have a straight line of something itchy on my back that I have never had before. I haven't been around any poison ivy, so I know it's not that. It's only located in the one place. I tried taking a picture of it but it was hard to reach. Could this be a form of DH? I know I got a tiny bit of gluten the other day.

Hi,  Maybe these links will help.

Thank you,  but many of the pictures wouldn't show up. Says the site was temporarily down or had been removed.

I'm sorry but you really haven't given any information to go on. The one photo you posted is very blurry. You don't say if you have celiac or not or have ever been tested or what makes you think you might be celiac & therefore this could be dh.

The photo isn't blurry on my end. And yes, I was diagnosed by means of gene test, symptoms, and improvement off gluten. The first doctor didn't test properly and I didn't want to go back and do the gluten challenge when I changed doctors. I had already taken myself off gluten and made a lot of progress. My new doctor gene tested me and I have two copies of celiac genes. One of the doctors at the Celiac Foundation in Chicago also read my test and said I was "at very high risk." My doctor gave me the diagnosis based on all of the above. But I was never sure about some of the little breakouts I get whether they are related to the Celiac or not.

It's too late now to know for sure then. I can tell you if it is dh then you have to make sure you don't get cross contaminated at all ever. Try the Fasano diet for 6 months & see what happens.

      Thank you for the links to the articles.  Interesting reading. I'll be telling my brother in law because he has a lot of pain

      Oats naturally contain a protein called avenin, which is similar to the gluten proteins found in wheat, barley, and rye. While avenin is generally considered safe for most people with celiac disease, some individuals, around 5-10% of celiacs, may also have sensitivity to avenin, leading to symptoms similar to gluten exposure. You may fall into this category, and eliminating them is the best way to figure this out. Some people substitute gluten-free quinoa flakes for oats if they want a hot cereal substitute. If you are interested in summaries of scientific publications on the topic of oats and celiac disease, we have an entire category dedicated to it which is here: https://www.celiac.com/celiac-disease/oats-and-celiac-disease-are-they-gluten-free/
