Can Acne Like Rash Be Dh?

Hello everyone, I had never heard of celiac disease before, for about 13 yrs ( I was 25 at the time) I have dealt with what seemed like acne/redness/blotchiness on my face that derm diagnosed as acne rosacea... since then I have struggled with this w/ ok success (never great)... fast forward, about 2 years I started getting waht seemed like hives on my face, maybe 1 or 2 a day for about a 3-10 days, they would vary on severity, then the hives go away although the itchiness remains all the time, I have to be constantly looking in the mirror to see if a new welt is developing, sometimes a hive does develop and sometimes its just the itch. I imagine that to people it kinda looks like adult acne, but acne is not suppose to itch, is it?... I also have this situation on my scalp... After checking online about DH, it seems much worse, and I have seen that it does affect some people on the face, I was just wondering if anyone has/had a similar case??

      @N00dnutt, been there, done that! Cheers!

      @trents You're right, thanks for pointing that out. On @somethinglikeolivia comment regarding potential ingesting or cross contamination; there is a product marketed in Australia as "GluteGuard" which is designed for just this scenario. It is not a defence for and is not recommended for use by full-blown celiac disease but, it helps those with GI. I'll be reading slower in future so I don't skim over the subject matter. Cheers.

      @Knitty_Kitty Noted with appreciation.

      @N00dnutt, as OP explained earlier, she had a gastroscopy done earlier while she had been eating plenty of gluten for months. It was negative despite strong positive antibody scores.

      The best way to determine positively is to undergo a Gastroscope. Your Endocrinologist will assess the condition of your "Villi". These tenticles are what extract the nutrient from what we ingest. The Protein in Gluten is like acid to these tenticles.
