It can appear almost anywhere. I had it on my upper arms, in my hair, ankles to knees, upper back, back of the neck, down my spine, lower back, forearms, elbows, but not on my face or front of my upper body.

 One summer I developed KP (Keratosis pilaris) just on my upper arms.  This was long before my celiac disease diagnosis.

Thank you so much! everything I read says nothing about upper arms. It's so frustrating!

I've never heard of KP. I'll have to look into that. Thanks!

I get kp flare on the back of my arms simultaneously when my DH flares on other parts of my body. My experience is you can have more than one skin issues flare when gluten. 

Good luck

      Welcome to the forum. Can we assume that you've been diagnosed with celiac disease and have been on a gluten-free diet for a while? If so, it sounds like you may be in the super sensitive group, as others here have reported similar issues when working in bakeries, pizzerias, etc. Until you find other work, and perhaps don't have roommates who cook gluten foods, you may need to consider wearing an N95 mask to avoid breathing in any particles.

      I used to work in a kitchen where gluten was very prevalent. Cookies, sandwiches, etc. I noticed I started having joint pain, and my hands would flared up in hives while working there. I would sometimes bake cookies during my shift and open the oven having the air from the oven go directly into my face.     Even at home my roommates sometimes fry things with regular flour and my joints start to hurt, brain fog, it was hard to move for a week, I just genuinely felt weak my legs like jelly and painful.  I never put two and two together before.   I’m not eating the food I feel like it’s causing issues.   My roommates don’t think there’s a correlation as I’m not eating any of the food they’re preparing. I’m trying to find another job now, I got one coming up at a restaurant that serves gluten food and I’ll be working in the kitchen. I’m thinking I should try to find a non food job. Anyone else worked food service and have flare ups?

      The ulcers are prepyloric ulcers. Not sure if that makes any difference.
