I have been gluten free for about five years now. About two weeks ago, I got an itchy bump on my neck. The next day or so later

there were more in the same area. Now I have them grouped near my knee, back of the thigh, near my left hip/buttocks, and last night

i started breaking out on my forearm. This is so frustrating!! It's confusing because one girl I live with broke out a few days before

I did, but her doctor says it's psoraiasis rosaisia? Just last week I'm pretty sure I was glutened. I got fog brain after eating gluten-free

french toast (supposesedly gluten-free). It was the worst fog brain I'd ever had. I was super dizzy, I felt high, couldn't think. The only new

foods I had with that meal were cinnamon, alcohol free vanilla, and Brie cheese. I called the company for the brie and they confirmed

it gluten free, even stating their vinegar was derived from corn (although there was no vinegar in this cheese). Anyway..I'm just really

annoyed and I'd like some help. I thought I'd come here first, then go to a doctor just because of the lack of money right now.

Is it possible to develop DH years later? I never had a problem before..Also, does is show up when you're glutened? If so, how long does it

take to go away. Oh..also, I got some new body wash by Alba. I use their shampoo and conditioner, their body wash didnt seem to have gluten..

Maybe I should contact them to be safe. Is DH usually a reaction caused by internal or external glutening? IE gluten contact on the skin, or

ingesting it?

edit: I checked the Alba website, and they won't confirm gluten free because their veggie sources come from variable sources. I think every time I take a shower, I break out with a new rash..not positive.

      They may want to also eliminate other possible causes for your symptoms/issues and are doing additional tests.  Here is info about blood tests for celiac disease--if positive an endoscopy where biopsies of your intestinal villi are taken to confirm is the typical follow up.

      In the Europe the new protocol for making a celiac disease diagnosis in children is if their tTg-IgA (tissue transglutaminase IgA) levels are 10 times or above the positive level for celiac disease--and you are above that level. According to the latest research, if the blood test results are at certain high levels that range between 5-10 times the reference range for a positive celiac disease diagnosis, it may not be necessary to confirm the results using an endoscopy/biopsy: Blood Test Alone Can Diagnose Celiac Disease in Most Children and Adults TGA-IgA at or Above Five Times Normal Limit in Kids Indicates Celiac Disease in Nearly All Cases No More Biopsies to Diagnose Celiac Disease in Children! May I ask why you've had so many past tTg-IgA tests done, and many of them seem to have been done 3 times during short time intervals?

      @JettaGirl, "Coeliac" is the British spelling of "celiac". Same disease.

      This may sound ridiculous but is this supposed to say Celiacs? I looked up Coeliacs because you never know, there’s a lot of diseases related to a disease that they come up with similar names for. It’s probably meant to say Celiacs but I just wanted to confirm.

      I was told it was to see how much damage has been caused. But just told CT with contrast not any other name for it.
