Need Name Of Dermatologist In Phoenix For Dh

Hello everyone. I've been a member since 2004, just not very active.

I need help for the child of a friend. This little boy is 5 years old, and has terrible exzema. The mother says he showed an allergy to wheat from a scratch test when he was three. Doctors told her not to take him off wheat.

He's been on steroids to suppress the rash. He just came off the steroids and now has a blistery rash that I think might be dermatitis heptiformis. I would like to give her the name of a dermatologist familiar with that in Phoenix, if possible. Can anyone help? Thank you in advance.

Maybe Open Original Shared Link has a listing, tho I'd expect the Dr section to mainly be GIs.

Good luck.

Oh wait! Another possible source is the Phx celiac group on Yahoo. Not sure of the url for that.

Thank you very much! I did find a dermatologist listed on the Phoenixceliac.com website in Scottsdale, and am passing that info along to the mom. Thanks so much!

      So you you ate wheat products every single day for 50 years without a problem but then in the 90's you discovered that wheat was your problem. That's confusing to me. It seems contradictory. Did you have a problem or not?

      I spent my first 50 years eating wheat products every single day with no ill affects. Being a 6’2” Italian you can imagine what my diet was like and believe me I had an appetite that wouldn’t quit. In the 90’s once I discovered the wheat was my problem I avoided it and no longer had IBS.  I seriously doubt I have celiac but I appreciate your input and will let you know if I have a problem with wheat again. I’ve been eating things I’ve longed for for decades and have never felt better.

      I would say two things and then I'm done. Many celiacs have been misdiagnosed for years with IBS. Testing for celiac disease requires regular and significant consumption of gluten for weeks/months in order to be valid.

      Can the rest of your household eat the food with gluten instead of getting rid of it? Can you create one shelf, or partial shelf, for your new food in the pantry, in the fridge and in the cabinets as a start? My husband is not gluten free so we each have a cabinet, and separate shelves in the fridge. If we have to share space the gluten free foods go on the upper shelves so crumbs with gluten can’t fall onto them. Good luck!

      Thanks for the advice, if my sensitivity comes back i’ll do that but I am 74, in good health for my age and probably have been sensitive to gluten for over 30 years the beginning of which I didn’t even know or suspect It was gluten. I’m seen by my doctor every three months with fasting labs, he knows I avoid gluten and has never suggested I should be concerned. It is quite possible a doctor did those tests on me 30 years ago, I just don’t remember, if they did and they were negative that’s why I wouldn’t remember. If you are interested I’ll keep you posted, but from what i’ve read there is no cure for genetic celiac disease and right now I’ve never felt worse than diarrhea eating wheat or...
