Dh Question?


Colinsmom

Recommended Posts

Colinsmom Newbie

I am still convinced that the rash I have is DH, even though the biopsy I had was negative. I'm going back to the dermatologist and am going to try to get her to do another one in case the first one wasn't done correctly. I have a question about the appearance of the rash that I'm hoping someone can answer. When the blisters start to heal up and scab, do they actually leave a little hole in your skin until they are completely healed? This is what mine does and sometimes they take forever to completely go away. My rash looks exactly like some of the photos of DH I have seen, and nothing like the "urticarial vasculitis" that I was diagnosed with.

Hi, This is my first post here. Have been gluten free since Dec.2006. I wanted to tell you. My DH does leave holes in my skin. It has cleared up for 18 mos. Then I ate something not sure what. It came back with a vengeance. Mine is on my ankles and lower leg. Not sure if this helps but I have had several holes and then when it finally heals scars.... have a great week, babs

Thanks for your reply Babs! I had another biopsy done last Wednesday and will get the results next week so we'll see if it shows anything different than the first one. The dermatologist took two samples, one from a blister and one from the adjacent skin, so at least I know it was done correctly this time. I'll let you know when I get the results.

      I don't recall seeing "many people here recommending RO water," but reverse osmosis (RO) water is water that has been purified by forcing it through a very fine membrane that removes dissolved salts, heavy metals, fluoride, nitrates, PFAS, and many other contaminants. It is one of the most thorough household filtration methods available and can be especially beneficial in areas with well water or known contamination concerns. While RO systems also remove beneficial minerals like calcium and magnesium and may produce slightly “flat”-tasting water, most dietary minerals come from food rather than drinking water, so this is not usually a health concern for most people. Overall, RO water is very clean and safe to drink, and it can be a smart option where water quality is questionable, though it may not be necessary in areas with well-tested municipal water.

      With the wide availability of frozen prepared gluten-free pizzas, for example DiGiorno's, it's probably best to avoid the risk of eating pizza in restaurants that also make regular pizza.

      Sorry to year you got glutened. This article, and the comments below it, may be helpful:   and this may help you avoid this next time:

      I will only add that one should never do 50k IU daily of vitamin D without being advised to do so by your doctor, and only if they are closely monitoring your vitamin D levels over the time you are doing this.
