Imodium liquid had gluten in it. I just found that out after each time I took it I broke out in a DH like rash of celiac on my torso under my breast and across my upper and mid back.

Do you keep a food journal? You know write down every thing that goes in your mouth. And before you do you've read the label and know what each ingredient is...? It will help alot.

What were you eating around the time or before you began noticing the rash?

Everything I ate was definaltly gluten free, and sorry for the wasted post but I went to my pediatrician today and she looked at my rash and at dh and she thought it wasn't it. I got it from wearing my softball jersey <_< It is one of the grosest things I have seen that was caused by clothing! my perscription, take allergy med. at night so I don't claw myself to death, and buy some underarmer so that my jersey won't leave its mark. Thanks a bunch anyways!!! I really do appreiciate it.

I actually just recently broke out in the same type of rash. wondering if it was caused by something I wore? I have tiny little red bumps that started on my stomach and have moved to my chest, arms and legs. They itch like crazy too. I went to the dermatologist and he really had no clue what it was. He prescribed topical steroids, but I am pregnant and don't feel comfortable using that. I was away this weekend but I know that everything I ate was gluten free and I have never gotten a rash from eating gluten before (have been gluten free for 2 1/2 years now). Could it be from using my husband's soap? (I usually use body wash)? Any suggestions at all? Could it be DH? This is so frustrating because I am going away this weekend and now have an ugly/itchy rash all over.

I was going to ask you all about a rash today, too. I get on on my scalp by my forehead. Some of the bumps look like red blisters, but there are also smaller flesh colored ones. I showed my husband pics of dh and he says if that's it, mine is very mild. I figure they take pictures of bad cases for examples ... what could this be? Anyone else get rashes on their scalp? I usually get a couple blister type things that look similar to pimples on my face when this happens, too. This is the worst I've had it and the first time that it's been itchy.

I have only found one laundry detergent that doesn't bother anyone in the house. If I wash the clothes in something else, or use those dryer fabric softeners, someone will get a rash. I also break out in a rash with new clothes, so I have to wash everything before I wear it. Just a couple ideas ...

      Should not be a problem except for the most sensitive celiacs. The amount of gluten that would get in the air from cooking alone has got to be miniscule. I would be more concerned about cross contamination happening in other ways in a living environment where others are preparing and consuming gluten-containing foods. Thinks like shared cooking surfaces and countertops. And what about that toaster you mentioned?

      Hello, @NCalvo822, Blood tests for Celiac Disease test for antibodies our bodies make in response to gluten exposure.  These Tg IgA 2 antibodies mistakenly attack our own bodies, causing problems in organs and tissues other than just the digestive tract.  Joints can ache, thyroid problems or the pancreas can develop.  Ataxia is just one of over two hundred symptoms of Celiac Disease. Some people with Celiac Disease also make tTg IgA 6 antibodies in response to gluten exposure.  The tTg IgA 6 antibodies attack the brain, causing ataxia.  These tTg IgA 6 antibodies are also found in people with Parkinson's disease, though they may not have Celiac Disease.  First degree relatives (parents, siblings, children) of those diagnosed with Celiac should be tested as well.  Celiac is genetic.  Your mom and sister should be tested for Celiac, too!   Definitely a good idea to keep to a gluten free diet.

      @Rebeccaj,  When you smell toast or pasta cooking, that means that particles of that food are floating around in the air.  Airborne gluten can then be inhaled and swallowed, meaning the food particles get into your digestive tract.   If you're careful to avoid gluten and are still having symptoms, those symptoms could be caused by vitamin deficiencies.

      ok thanks for your advice. But my question was what happens when someone you know in a house is cooking pasta or toast that's flour  Airbourne without eating.?

      Do discuss this recent article with your doctors.  Thiamine Vitamin B 1 is important to intestinal health.  Thiamine deficiency can occur in Celiac Disease due to malabsorption.  Supplementing with a B Complex, Benfotiamine, and Vitamin D can help symptoms.   Thiamine deficiency aggravates experimental colitis in mice by promoting glycolytic reprogramming in macrophages https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/39890689/#:~:text=Our mechanistic study revealed that,necessary to protect against colitis. "Conclusion and implications: Our study provides evidence linking thiamine deficiency with proinflammatory macrophage activation and colitis aggravation, suggesting that monitoring thiamine status and adjusting thiamine intake is necessary to protect against colitis."
