Rash?


Izak's Mom

Recommended Posts

Izak's Mom Apprentice

So my son Izak got glutened the other day - a well meaning but totally ditzy friend of my mom's was watching him for a few minutes while she went out to the post office, and when my mom came back, her friend said 'oh, we had such a good time - I gave him a cookie!!' AGH! the next day, he had his old explosive yellow liquid poop, but he also got this weird rash on his tummy...went from about his crotch not quite up to his nipple line, and it almost looked like little bug bites or chicken pox, but not blisters...almost pimply looking after a day had passed. Like they started out all red & raised like bug bites, then turned into little white-head-y looking things as they got smaller. I thought it was kind of weird that it was just on his abdomen too...anyone else's kids get something like this? It didn't seem to bother him, and was confined to just his belly - almost diaper rash-y looking. Weird?

The rash sounds a lot like DH to me, even though the location sounds odd. I am sure it is caused by the gluten and will pass.

I'm completely new to this website but just read your post about a rash. My son who is 2 developd a rash that sounds exactly the same, but only it was on his inner thighs and bum. This happened just about 1-2 weeks ago. I took him to the doctors and she said it was chicken pox. I wouldn't believe that it was b/c he had the vaccination for Chicken pox when he was one and there is about a 5% chance that he could get the chicken pox. So i finally got in to see my regular doctor and he said it wasn't chicken pox. We don't know what caused it but my son just had blood work done about 3 weeks ago to test for Celiac and it came back "suggestive" of celiac. So right away I was upset and concerned and confused, not knowing what celiac was. My son has been referred to a hospital to see a specialist but we haven't booked an appointment yet. My Ped. said it's just to rule things out and it may be that he doesn't have celiac. How does a test come back "suggestive" but possibly also mean that he doesn't have celiac?

Anyway, I was just really surprised when I read about your son's rash when my son was just getting over something similar. Now i"m just babbling.

      Hello, My 17 yr old daughter was diagnosed with celiac disease 2 yrs ago. She does not have gum disease and no history of cavities. Her dentist is recommending braces for her lower teeth but I read it may worsen gum recession or possibly increase cavity risk which I know are already issues for patients with celiac. Has anyone here had braces and did it cause any problems or issues with gum recession?  Her dentist seemed oblivious that celiac patients are at higher risk of gum disease /cavities. Her bottom teeth are crooked but are pretty hidden even when she smiles. Thank you!!

      This is a common experience across the board with various brands of gluten-free bread products. Prices go up, size goes down. Removal of the egg component may be for the purpose of cost-cutting related to bird flu supply shortages or it may be catering to those with egg allergy/sensitivity, fairly common in the celiac community.

      Living with Coeliac Disease since birth, Bread has always been an issue, never too nice, small slices and always overpriced, But Sainsbury's Free From White Sliced Bread seemed to me to be an exception with it's large uniform 12 x 12cm slices that had the bounce, texture and taste of white bread even after toasting with no issue that it was also Milk Free. Unfortunately Sainsbury's have changed the recipe and have made it 'Egg Free' too and it has lost everything that made the original loaf so unique. Now the loaf is unevenly risen with 8 x 8cm slices at best, having lost it's bounce with the texture dense and cake like after toasting resembling nothing like White Bread anymore. Unsure as to why they have had to make it 'Egg Free' as the price is the same at £1.90 a loaf. Anyone else experiencing the same issue with it? - also any recommendations for White Bread that isn't prescription? / Tesco's / Asda's are ok but Sainsbury's was superior.

      Years  ago a friend and I drove north into Canada hoping to find a ski resort open in late spring,We were in my VW and found a small ski area near a small town and started up this gravelled road up a mountain. We  got about halfway up and got stuck in the mud. We tried everything we could think of but an hour later we were still stuck. Finally a pickup came down the road, laughed at our situation, then pulled the VW free of the mud. We followed him back to the ski area where where he started up the rope ski lift and we had an enjoyable hour of skiing and gave us a shot of aquavit  before we left.It was a great rescue.  In some ways this reminds me of your situation. You are waiting for a rescue and you have chosen medical practitioners to do it now or as soon as possible. As you have found out the med. experts have not learned how to help you. You face years of continuing to feel horrible, frustrated searching for your rescuer to save you. You can break away from from this pattern of thinking and you have begun breaking  away by using some herbs and supplements from doTerra. Now you can start trying some of the suggestions thatother Celiacs have written to your original posts.  You live with other people who eat gluten foods. Cross contamination is very possible. Are you sure that their food is completely separate from their food. It  is not only the gluten grains you need to avoid (wheat, barley, rye) but possibly oats, cows milk also. Whenever you fall back into that angry and frustrated way of thinking get up and walk around for a whild. You will learn ways to break that way of thinking about your problems.  Best wishes for your future. May you enjpy a better life.

      Thanks for responding. I researched further and Lindt Lindor chocolate balls do contain barely malt powder which contains gluten. I was surprised at all of the conflicting information I found when I checked online.
