Could These Be Dh Symptoms

Hello, I accidently got gluten (not cc) for 2 weeks in a row, on the 5th and 12th of October. During the past week I have a rashy area on the back of my neck at my hairline. My head and ears also feel itchy. I also have small bumps on my face, mostly on my forehead and down the sides. Before going gluten-free I had the face bumps most of the time and sometimes the itchy scalp and ears, but no actual rash. I have no other rash on my body at all, but I am also currently being treated for a yeast infection. (only 1 dose so far)

So, could it be a form of DH? The last gluten I had was 12 days ago.

Or is it possible symptoms of candida?

Hi, Well it sure sounds like DH, but the best way to know for sure would be to see a dermatologist and have a biopsy done. I had four done before they finely did the biopsy right and got the correct diagnosis. I have been dealing with DH for years and I break out within 10 minutes of ingesting gluten even if it is just a very small amount and the breakout can last for days. I do take Dapsone for the itch (as it is not a cure) and it does help alot. If your not wanting a biopsy then the other thing to do would be to just watch every thing you eat really close even keep a food diary and check for all the hidden glutens. Good luck!

      That happened to me as well @trents! I always wondered it that regimen caused my celiac disease!

      I see nothing in the ingredient list that concerns me from a gluten intolerant perspective. Historically, how has your 13 yr. old been treated for his acne? When I was a teenager I had acne issues (this was in the 1960s) and was put on a long term regimin of tetracycline. It helped the acne but I am convinced it altered my gut microbiome and contributed to the development of celiac disease.

      Hello. My 13 YO son has celiac disease and terrible acne. Our older son, not celiac disease is using a product that is new on the mkt within the last few years called SHIELD. Body wash, cream and patches. Wonderful results. I contacted the Co and they were very helpful but definitely suggested we contact our G.I. specialist, I have done so but I have not heard back from her. Below is the correspondence with the company and I was wondering if anyone here could please tell me whether or not these ingredients are safe.     Hi Lynn, thank you for reaching out and for your interest in our products! To ensure transparency, here is the full list of ingredients used in our products. While...

      so im short a year of diagnosis this october. As soon as I was diagnosed i quit all gluten and relied on buckwheat and potatoes at times as my carb sources. Due to a power outage i could not eat buckwheat for a couple days, i felt better but when power was back on i ate buckwheat and felt sick, i soon cut it out of my diet.long story short I have developed psoriasis and cramping in my calves and feet, brutal cramping at that. I cut out rice and potatoes and corn and eggs as consuming them would make my psoriasis extremely itchy. I have only ate sweet poatoes and plantins for two months straight 5 to 6 times a day with no symptoms other than slow digestion of small intestine. I was also...

      While I don’t have a specific personal recommendation, there are several ways to find a skilled GI doctor in Tucson who specializes in celiac disease. Check the Celiac Disease Foundation’s Healthcare Practitioner Directory for listed providers in Arizona: https://celiac.org/about-celiac-disease/find-a-healthcare-practitioner/ Also, local healthcare systems like Banner-University Medicine or El Rio Health may have gastroenterologists with celiac expertise—consider asking for referrals to doctors familiar with gluten-related disorders. When contacting potential doctors, ask about their experience with celiac diagnosis, follow-up protocols, and whether they work with dietitians.
