Hello Guys,

I´m sort of new here ...

Celiac for 2 years now, and still struggling through... When I thought I finally had things under control: gluten intollerance and lactose intollerance, now I body can't tolerate seafoods y nor fish.

My question is now related to skin since I´m starting to get a kind of skin reaction (red spots and water spots)does anyone has this sort problem. It seems related when I start using face products. Just like even from products I´ve had used before.

Can anyone relate to this?

Many thanks

Hi Blueangel, and welcome! Sorry you're having a hard time with your skin. Have you checked that the products you are using have no wheat or oats in them? If you can't tell by reading the labels, you could call the companies or try and post any ingred. you are unsure of and maybe someone here can help you with that. Even a product that you have been using for a while can change formulas, so that is a possibility. Have you searched the boards here for other ideas for facial care products and makeup?

What kind of products are you using? I get a terrible reaction from Phisoderm products, or anything that contains benzoyl peroxide. I might as well set my face on fire.

      Scott I also have different symptoms than most people. It affects me bad. Stomach ache, headache, nauseous, heart racing, whole body shaking, can't walk then my throat starts to close. It attacks my nervous system. The only thing that saves me is a 1/2 of Xanax...it calms down my nervous system

      Scott Adams. I was dealing with a DR that didn't care about me being celiac. I repeatedly told him that I was celiac and is everything gluten-free. He put an acrylic lens from j&j. I called the company to ask about gluten and was told yes that the acrylic they use has gluten....then they back tracked immediately and stopped talking to me. The Dr didn't care that I was having issues. It took me 6 months and a lot of sickness to get it removed.... which can only happen within 6 months. The Dr that took it out said that it was fused and that's why I lost vision. If they would have removed it right away everything would be fine. He put in a silicone one that was gluten-free and I've had no issues at all in the other eye. Do not do acrylic!

      Welcome @Martha Mitchell, I too would like to know more about your prior lenses, and especially about the potential of gluten in lenses. In theory this should not harm most celiacs, as the autoimmune reaction normally begins in the gut, however, in those who are super sensitive or have dermatitis herpetiformis it may be a potential issue.

      It's most likely going to be a celiac disease diagnosis based on your blood test results, but wait for your doctor to give you a green light for going gluten-free, as they may want to do additional testing. This article has some detailed information on how to be 100% gluten-free, so it may be helpful (be sure to also read the comments section.):
