Does anyone else get red arm or face after eating gluten? It happens about 30min after eating gluten, they get all rosy like I've been working out or something.

Does this only happen when you eat gluten???? I get that way but it happens with alot of foods. I do have Roascea tho. This could also be something you want to check into.

Yes I have had the same problem. What I have found out however; is that I probably have a condition called Rosacea. This is a skin condition which is sometimes referred to as "the curse of the Celts", which means, just as with Celiac Disease,those who are from Irish heritage or Northern European heritage are more prone to have the condition. With Rosacea you will notice redness around the nose, cheeks, forehead and chin, and your skin may be very sensitive to changes in temperature both hot and cold. Also, if you eat something which is highly seasoned with pepper it can cause flushing of the face and neck. I was diagnosed two years ago with Celiac Disease after years of suffering multiple symptoms and being misdiagnosed by several Doctors. The Rosacea began to get more noticeable during the cold winter weather, my skin was very dry, appeared pink, and burned after a bath or shower. I have not been to a Dermatologist yet , but just from reading info I have found on the internet I am reasonably sure I have Rosacea. They do not know for sure what causes the problem, some people have to be treated with antibiotics or steroid creams, and a patient must be very careful not to eat spicey foods. Some researchers believe that caffiene in coffee and tea should be avoided, and interestingly enough, some patients are being told to avoid wheat in their diet. Check out some info on the net, and see if it sounds like your problem. Also, read labels carefully to be sure that something you are eating might contain MSG; I have found that MSG will make my face and neck flush, and also it makes my heart rate increase. Many restaurant foods contain MSG seasoning, it can play havoc with someone who suffers from Celiac Disease.

      almost a year in recovery - so many questions about to give up

      thank you, ive asked my dr to test for vitamin deficiency and shes only said vitamin d (very low 26) and b12, she says all other vitamins are not included in her blood tests only the major ones, C, D, E, B12 etc. Ive been following the aip diet now and im going to stay on it very strict to see how it goes. im eating tons of food, romaine salads, mango, peaches, pears, cucumber, celery, zuccnini, sweet potator, plantains, ground turkey and beef and chicken.  i eat about 4 plate filling meals a day with two to three good size snacks a day including about 3 or 4 bananas. im still not absorbing nutrients, if i eat any sort of food with fat, I.e ground beef or fatty pork the taste of fat lingers in my mouth for 2-3 hours sometimes longer, if i bask in sun for vitamin d i feel great but then lethargic and feel strange for a day or two later, like im still absorbing it all in. even regular sweet foods like fruit the sweetness stays in mouth for hours. ive had blood work done for gall bladder, thryroid, pancreas, liver, kindey dr says they are all fine. i dont know what other tests i can do?   ive attached two pictures of the rash that broke out on my legs, feet and small one near wrist bone bright red was before treatment, second scabby one is during treatment and healing.  https://freeimage.host/i/FrI3KZb https://freeimage.host/i/FrI3Fwu

      Trader Joe's strikes again

      By StuartJ · Posted

      Just ate some for lunch!  A really superb alternative to gluten-free bread and burger buns that all have the taste and consistency of compacted sawdust.  I bought two packs and now I'm down to one remaining muffin so need to get some more; the only thing is it's their own brand - they don't do mail or on line ordering and the nearest TJ's is in Charlottesville (a real nightmare to drive around) an hour away from me over the mountain.  😒

      Question about biopsy

      By somethinglikeolivia · Posted

      When I underwent a scope three years ago, the GI told me I was negative for celiac because there was no intestinal damage (in spite of multiple strong positive labs). I went back to look at my biopsy report out of curiosity, and found this note: “Localized mild nodular mucosa was found in the duodenal bulb. Duodenum otherwise normal.” The pathology from this scope was negative. Does anyone have any insight into mild modular mucosa and what that could indicate or be a precursor to? I’ve read it can be a sign of celiac or other gut issues like h. Pylori, etc.  Thanks in advance!
