Holy Cow!!! It's about time you showed up. We were all worried when you left us with some unsettling news. Now fuss is over.

I am not sure, but scraping the bone so that it would be smooth to that is could fuse together and mend itself.

Lister, there is medical finances available for those who are not able to pay.

I know we have medical insurance peep out there.

You need an MRI dude, or atleast xrays. I'm glad you're back. Maybe you can fill us in on what's going on later.

PS: glad everything was negative. But, not to lecture, use precaution next time. ;)

Hi Lister,

Gee, a lot of us have been worried about you! I'm so glad to hear the test was negative--what a relief!!

Sorry, I don't know about the scraping--I hope you can work out some way to get the MRI. Would be best to know exactly what you're dealing with. I know it's tough for you, though.

Anyway, it's good to hear from you again :)

Lister I am so sorry to hear this.

You need to call the doctors office and talk to a nurse as soon as you can. They will explain fully what they are going to do, what you can expect painwise, how long it will take to recover. I can assure you whatever they are doing they will make you comfortable before hand. I would also suggest that you get ahold of your Human Services Depts and see if you qualify for emergency medical assistance. You very well may if this injury prevents you from working and they may even cover next weeks work. Never hurts to check.

I am glad to hear that all was clear on the other front and hope you recover from this soon.

      It is more likely code for “we think there really was a good response to the treatment, but it was small or in a small percent of subjects so it would take a large clinical trial to try to prove it.”

      Thank you so much for your replies. Luckily the rash went away when I completely swore off gluten. It took several months but I have not had a flare in months. So a biopsy is no longer possible. The itch was terrible and apart from bleaching my skin the steroid lotions and potions did nothing. The Gliadin is for accidents and shall be a part of my travel kit from now on. This past exposure has made a me a little leery about eating anything that was not cooked in my kitchen or a dedicated gluten-free restaurant. As much as I used to love baked goods, I am cured and have become quite the gluten free baker to the point that friends and family forget that my cakes/cookies/and bread are not "real". I guess I will have to wait for the new blood test to come out to get confirmation but I have a suspicion that the rash was dermatitis herpetiformis.

      Hello, I just wanted to share with the frustration of skin issues and seeing dermatologist and medications not working for years, I did my own healing experiment. As of last week I have been taking a drop internally under the tongue of Vetiver and putting on topically on sores Yellow/Pom.I am seeing a extreme difference at a rapid time.Im also noticing my nails a little harder. Ive always been into natural properties because I feel its safer for the body.I know short time, but really seeing a difference. I also feel the the trapped gases that causes bloating helps break down as well.Curious if any body else can benefit from and has tried. Products is made by Doterra by Dr Hill

      I agree with @trents, and the rash you described, especially its location and resistance to steroids, sounds highly characteristic of dermatitis herpetiformis, which is the skin manifestation of celiac disease. The severe and prolonged reaction you're describing five days after a small exposure is, while extreme, not unheard of for those with a high sensitivity; the systemic inflammatory response can absolutely last for several days or even weeks, explaining why you still don't feel right. Your plan to avoid a formal gluten challenge is completely understandable given the severity of your reactions, and many choose the same path for their well-being. While experiences with GliadinX (they are a sponsor here) are mixed, some people do report a reduction in the severity of their symptoms when taken with accidental gluten, though it is crucial to remember it is not a cure or a license to eat gluten and its effectiveness can vary from person to person. For now, the absolute best advice is to continue being hyper-vigilant about cross-contamination—buffets are notoriously high-risk, even with good intentions. Connecting with a gastroenterologist and a dermatologist who specialize in celiac disease is essential for navigating diagnosis and management moving forward. Wishing you a swift recovery from this last exposure. If you have DH you will likely also want to avoid iodine, which is common in seafoods and dairy products, as it can exacerbate symptoms in some people. This article may also be helpful as it offers various ways to relieve the itch:
