Intolerance Or Allergy?

Sometimes my hands break out into a rash that is so itchy and burning that medication won't relieve them. It looks like eczema, but 10x worse in itch and burn. I always thought it was due to chemicals so I'm very careful when cleaning, but I didn't do any cleaning yesterday and it happened right after I ate a new food.

Since I'm keeping a food diary and trying to figure out why going gluten-free 2 years ago hasn't cured all of my symptoms, I'm thinking that it may be due to something in that food. I hardly ever eat eggs - they gross me out - but I just checked my food diary and the ingredients of that food include eggs.

That being said, is this a symptom of an allergy or an intolerance, or does it matter? I'm very new to keeping track of ingredients and how they affect me (except for gluten, which I've figured out already). I think I'll eat something with eggs and see if it happens again...

Thanks for the help.

      Manitol and mri

      By nanny marley · Posted

      Thanks rmj when I first rang up it was we can't do it without , but I talked to a lovely lady and she sorted it all out for me, so it pays to be persistent , I would have had to decline if I hadn't been given the water option too , so yes I'm glad too 😌

      I’m so glad they listened to your concerns!  I hope you get some answers from the MRI.

      Coeliac and Thyroid?

      By Peace lily · Posted

      Thank you ,it’s been a long road for me for having both now ,what upsets the most is that if they discovered that I also have cealiac earlier I would not have injested gluten if I was aware. Double whammy.
