Hi

I'd just like a sampling from the people on this board if these pics look like DH or not?

Thanks

your rash looks very much like my rsh on my forearms and shins. So yes, it very well could be DH.

It looks a lot like what my dd7 had on her legs that was never diagnosed as DH but completely went away after going gluten free.

Some of that looks a lot like the red bumps I have on my back. I always suspected it may be a very mild case of DH, though I was never tested for it.

That looks like what I have going on right now - only mine is everywhere - my arms are severly covered in it! Thanks for the great pics - I have looked everywhere trying to find pics that match what I have!

Did you ever get a diagosis?

That looks exactly like the rash I had for years that I mistook for acne.After I stopped eating gluten it went away completely.

Still don't have a DX on it, I've been tested for celiac antobodies but came up negative, so then I had a test for Lupus antibodies and came up positive, but of course that doesn't mean I have Lupus. Now in addition to that type of rash I have eczema on my knees and ankles, and some other type of rash on my thighs/shins. The doctor said I probably have adrenal fatigue but I'd have to order a test since it's not covered in Canada. The last time I visited him he said to try avoiding gluten and dairy for 6 weeks and if there is no change from that then he will test me for parasites. But I am trying the dairy free/gluten free thing now, so far I've lost 7 pounds in a week as it's hard to find stuff eat now...

So no, no diagnosis.

It looks a lot like mine. I also have some psoriasis and eczema mixed in behind the knees, back of calves and fanny.

I had it on my neck and in scalp like yours but it is clearing up there, as well as ankles, leaving some reddish purple scars in its wake.

      Insomnia help

      Hi @knitty kitty just covering back to this topic. I appreciate everyone’s help. Dairy was definitely adding to some of my issues but I wanted to ask about histamine. When I was working with my dietician I mentioned I got a stuffy nose when I was eating strawberries which I had just noticed one day in particular. Once I looked more into this I realized t...

      Celiac Disease and Longevity: Can Treatment and Healing Improve Long-Term Survival?

      Welcome to the celiac.com community, @Paulyw! So, we need some clarification here because your post is a little confusing. Am I correct in assuming that before you ate the food offered by your client, you were already aware that gluten-containing foods made you ill? And am I correct in assuming that you have never had any formal testing done...

      Insomnia help

      By hjayne19 · Posted

      Hi @knitty kitty just covering back to this topic. I appreciate everyone’s help. Dairy was definitely adding to some of my issues but I wanted to ask about histamine. When I was working with my dietician I mentioned I got a stuffy nose when I was eating strawberries which I had just noticed one day in particular. Once I looked more into this I realized that histamine peaks at night and can cause insomnia exactly as I had been describing before. Working with her I realized while I wasn’t eating a lot of high histamine foods, I was eating a lot of histamine triggering or releasing like bananas (I was having several a day) and strawberries. Also some nights are worse than others but I also discovered meat sitting out even for a day can increase in histamines especially salmon which I eat quite a lot of even though I thought I was getting it fresh. Just wanted to know your thoughts and I’m just curious how this ties into celiac and leaky gut.

      Healthy Gluten Free Foods low sugar that you found?

      By xxnonamexx · Posted

      I noticed eating gluten-free or CGF foods have higher sugar and sodium some. No added sugar protein bars I found better with plant fiber. I wanted to know what are you go to besides whole fruits/veggies that you find are healthy for you where you can feel eating normal without hurting yourself or health. I was looking into subscription based like Thrift to see if there is something that is healthier CGF that can make me feel normal. Thanks
