Two possible meanings, as used here:

Dermatitis Herpetiformis -an autoimmune skin rash triggered by gluten. Some say it is a distinct disease, but most here consider just a another symptom of celiac disease.

And, as with any web discussion, DH can mean "Dear Husband." DD and DS refer to daughter and son respectively.

I was looking @ the topics and then i saw the Dermitis H. one. I'm like gr8 now i feel stupid but oh well thank you

One more question is this a rash or a discoloration of the skin. Because i had a dark pigment color change on my neck when i was sick. The doctors kept saying it was addison's disease or acanthosis agricanes. But as soon as i started the gluten-free diet it went away. Does sound like DH?

Open Original Shared Link is a rash which has eruptions and extreme itching. The skin is inflamed. It is similar to Open Original Shared Link. Discoloration alone is not either condition. Not all celiacs have DH--I didn't, although I did have what was diagnosed as eczema as a child.

Click on either condition name to see a description of it.

Please don't feel dumb. I am a lot older than you and I have no idea what most posters are talking about when they just use initials. Often it takes me hours to thinl of the disease/condition they are posting about.

You and I can just muddle along together. :D

      From their website I see "organic barley leaf powder" as an ingredient. Keep in mind that the gluten is in the kernel, and not in the leaves. https://drinkag1.com/about-ag1/ingredients/ctr

      Before the rise of social media we were well known by a lot of doctors and were recommended by many, especially our Safe & Forbidden Lists, but as doctors get younger and younger this is probably not happening as much as before.

      Thanks Scott I will definitely check my vitamins and minerals to see what I am missing so then I can supplement. I was very concern about my Meniers syntoms and i tryed to find some alive. Now im just realizing that my celiac is provably the root cause of my Meniers none of the 12 doctors I saw told me anything about this.  This web site is so helpful, thanks to people like you we can get answers.

      Vitamin D deficiency can contribute to rib pain. Chest pain stemming from the ribs ccould be costochondritis, which involves inflammation of the cartilage connecting the ribs to the breastbone. This pain can range from mild to severe, potentially mimicking heart attack symptoms, and is often worsened by breathing or movement. Other potential causes include muscle strain, rib fractures, or even referred pain from other conditions.  It will also help to chose vegetables low in omega 6.
