Haven't had this in years. Is anyone dealing with this? It is not oozing - has a yellowish tint. Did have a few potatoes(which I have been eliminating on my no nightshade diet) and ate semi-sweet chocolate in the trail mix. Any suggestions? Thanks, LindaLee

I have the same thing on my right hand. If I get glutened, it breaks out in blisters, but otherwise it's just kinda dry. Dermatologist thinks it's DH, but couldn't biopsy because of location. It itches like CRAZY when I get glutened.

How long have you had it? Mine just happened- no itch(thank goodness). I put neosporum on it. I feel like mine was brought on by stress. Do you have ridges on your fingernails? LindaLee

Before I went gluten-free, I had vertical ridges in my fingernails, and a horizontal dip in both thumbnails. All that is gone now (after a year gluten-free) The finger blister comes and goes--I had it frequently before. I was sick this past weekend--I may have been glutened thru CC, and it flared up again. Mine definately itches.

They say the ridges mean not absorbing nutrients. I had the itching blisters before and my finger got so swollen I had to have my ring cut off. Do you have a cat? After my stressful traffic trip back home, I cleaned out the litter box. I'm careful when I do that, but you never know. LL

The not absorbing nutrients would make sense because I was also anemic then. I do have a cat, but I don't think that the litter had anything to do with the blister in my case--maybe you are allergic also?

It's dyshidrotic eczema. I've had it for ten years. It goes away as long as I stay away from things I am allergic to. You might want to get some allergy testing done.

It can also effect the finger nails after years of having it. It has mine. It makes them bumpy and ridgey. Diagnosing skin problems is tricky. That's why talking to your doctor about it is very important. Specifically a dermatologist.

The yellow tint is going away and healing- looks like a scab now. ????? LL

      Celiac and allergic to common subs and adds in prepared foods

      By DAR girl · Posted

      Looking for help sourcing gluten-free products that do not contain potato or corn derived ingredients. I have other autoimmune conditions (Psoriatic Arthritis and Sjogrens) so I’m looking for prepared foods as I have fatigue and cannot devote a lot of time to baking my own treats.

      Disregarded

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      I am so sorry you're going through this. It's completely understandable to feel frustrated, stressed, and disregarded after such a long and difficult health journey. It's exhausting to constantly advocate for yourself, especially when you're dealing with so many symptoms and positive diagnoses like SIBO, while still feeling unwell. The fact that you have been diligently following the diet without relief is a clear sign that something else is going on, and your doctors should be investigating other causes or complications, not dismissing your very real suffering.

      Paying for my own Celiac screening at WalkInLab so a positive result doesn’t become part of my medical history

      By Oldturdle · Posted

      It is just so sad that health care in the United States has come to this.  Health insurance should be available to everyone, not just the healthy or the rich.  My heart goes out to you.  I would not hesitate to have the test and pay for it myself.  My big concern would be how you could keep the results truly private.  I am sure that ultimately, you could not.  A.I. is getting more and more pervasive, and all data is available somewhere.  I don't know if you could give a fake name, or pay for your test with cash.  I certainly would not disclose any positive results on a private insurance application.  As I understand it, for an official diagnosis, an MD needs to review your labs and make the call.  If you end up in the ER, or some other situation, just request a gluten free diet, and say it is because you feel better when you don't eat gluten.      Hang in there, though.  Medicare is not that far away for you, and it will remove a lot of stress from your health care concerns.  You will even be able to "come out of the closet" about being Celiac!

      Yes, I've posted a few times about two companies: Request a Test and Ulta Labs. Also, pretty much we can all request any test we want (with the possible exception of the N protein Covid test and I'm sure a couple of others) with Lab Corp (or Pixel by Lab Corp) and Quest. I much prefer Lab Corp for their professionalism, ease of service and having it together administratively, at least in DC. And just so you know, Request a Test uses Lab Corp and Quest anyway, while Ulta Labs uses only Quest. Ulta Labs is cheaper than Request a Test, but I am tired of dealing with Quest, so I don't use them so much.

      Does Dailymed.nlm.nih.gov site have filters for gluten?

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      PS - I think you meant this site, but I don't believe it has been updated in years: http://glutenfreedrugs.com/ so it is best to use: You can search this site for prescriptions medications, but will need to know the manufacturer/maker if there is more than one, especially if you use a generic version of the medication: To see the ingredients you will need to click on the correct version of the medication and maker in the results, then scroll down to "Ingredients and Appearance" and click it, and then look at "Inactive Ingredients," as any gluten ingredients would likely appear there, rather than in the Active Ingredients area. https://dailymed.nlm.nih.gov/dailymed/
