My gorgeous son has experienced rashes in his short two and a half years, that I haven't had in my 30 years! Two different types of blister rashes, blotchy rashes, red itchy and irritable patches of skin...he's had it all! I really don't want to bla bla if you're not interested, but if you're experiencing this with your child or self, feel free to respond and I can pass on what my efforts have turned up. From an emotional rollercoaster ride to chilled out, the whole family is good with what some of us have...

My daughter is nearly 2 (she will be 2 in March) she has a skin rash called "Keratosis Polaris" basically dry skin with red patches and what looks like goosebumps on the back of her arms, tops of her thighs, and bottom. She also has mild excema, and gets strange dry patches all over her body that look like excema but don't bother her at all. The poor thing has my skin :(

Anyhow both have gotten a little better since being gluten free but they are still around. We've found good treatment with using non-soap cleanser and lotion on her entire body at least 2 times a day.

I use the Lame Advertisement Intelligence body cleanser and lotion on my daughter and sometimes California Baby.

      Understood. And don't beat yourself up about this. Many are in the same boat as you, having experimented with the gluten-free diet before getting formerly tested. It is a logical, common sense approach when you don't have the knowledge about how testing works or you don't have the healthcare resources to afford testing. And some experience such severe reactions to gluten that it is impossible to get through the gluten challenge in order to get tested. So, they must live with the ambiguity of not knowing for sure if they suffer from celiac disease or NCGS. But at the end of the day, the antidote is the same for both. Namely, life-ling abstinence from gluten. Recently there was an article on posted on this forum about the develop of a new testing method for diagnosing celiac disease that do not require a gluten challenge. It is still in the developmental stage and probably years away from becoming main streams even if it pans out. But there is hope at least.

      Ooh thanks for all the info I'll check them out, though I may not be functional after 6 slices for 6 weeks 😅

      Here is more info about how to do a gluten challenge for a celiac disease blood panel, or for an endoscopy: and this recent study recommends 4-6 slices of wheat bread per day:
