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.

      Desperately need a vitamin D supplement. I've reacted to most brands I've tried.

      I have been diagnosed with Refractory Celiac disease Type 2. Which is quite a shock because my Gastroenterologist has been performing gastroscopy & colonoscopy's - 4 in 2025 & a gastroscopy on the 20/3/26 and they didnot tell me how bad my Celiacs disease is and has been. It was my haematologist that checked more of my symptoms and came up with the result. So I am trying hard to get some nutrition into my body. All of this info on supplements and nutritional diets is very helpful.  Regards Margaret.

      Im very big on nateral remedies and just read that my go to herb is a no no and was wondering if factual or fiction. I read on Google, I know don't read or take to heart, however it stated that Echinacea isn't good for those with compromise autoimmune because it can cause inflammation. Has anyone else heard of this?Ive been battling sibo so wondering if any connection though haven't been religious on my vitamins these last several months because of testing ect.Sibo medications im allergic,the last few prescribed. Gi  dr dropped me but took me back.Im frustrated too but its the autoimmune part .

      Pardon me, I stand corrected.  I did find yet another blood test for thyroid function. TSH W/REFLEX TO FT4:  2.91 mIU/L  (Range: 0.40 - 4.50) As you can see, I was within the acceptable range when the test was performed.

      I am curious: What was your initial level at? How many daily IUs were you taking via supplements and for how long? What did your level drop to? How many daily IUs are you taking now via supplements? Regards, Known1
