Daily Hives And Dh Not Going Away!

Hi all! This is my first post and I am hoping for some help!

After 4 years of suffering with chronic hives and stomach issues I was diagnosed with Celiacs Disease. I have been gluten free for a little over 2 months. However, my hives and DH have not cleared up, in fact the DH has gotten slightly worse! I have had a few slip ups where I have accidentally gotten glutened, (resulted in headache and extreme fatigue- far worse than before I went gluten-free- has that happened to anyone else?) but for the past month I have prepared all my meals myself and have recently gone to just eating meat and vegetables. I have changed my make up, soaps, detergent, etc.

Does anyone else have this problem? Does it just take a while for it to go away?

PLEASE HELP! My doctors are useless and think the hives are not related to Celiac's..but I am convinced they are!!

Thanks for your help! :D

Have you eliminated dairy products? I have been gluten free for 6 weeks and now dairy affects me really bad, just like being glutened. If you haven't I would remove dairy next. Hope you feel better!

Yep celiac disease causes hives. I found that out because somebody else posted about hives on here and I said that hives are only caused by allergies (in my ignorance) and that they should get allergy tested.

Then I started researching out of curiosity and found that autoimmune disorders, especially celiac, can cause hives quite frequently.

Accidental glutenings take their toll on you and it just takes time to heal. Be careful like you are already doing and then give it some more time. I agree about dairy. I cut dairy and soy, and I'm eating simply to let my digestive system heal. It's just so irritated and easily flares up right now.

      Toothpaste question.

      Thank you. I must have misinterpreted a study or something. Thank you for the clarification. Much appreciated. Almost three years into my celiac diagnosis and I'm still learning new things.

      Manitol and mri

      I wasn’t clear, glucagon and gadolinium were intravenous. I drank about 5 cups of the prep during 45 minutes. I feel very tired now, probably partly because I was nervous, and partly because I had to fast for 6 hours beforehand and wasn’t very hungry when I got home.

      as my last post stated, i was diagnosed via endoscopy on the 14th of june. i have been eating amazing home cooked meals, luckily, mainly cooked by my boyfriend who is extremely careful about contamination (and is an incredible cook at that). however, i find myself in a mental rut still. being 18, this is the time in my life where i should be exploring things, going out, having fun. yet every corner i turn i'm tortured by the amazing smell of something i can't have anymore. the wonderful sight of such yummy foods. it's near torture. if my boyfriend and his friend who lives with us buy something i can't have, they'll usually eat it outside of the house or the car or wherever we are - which is greatly appreciated - but even seeing a burger or chips or a sausage roll in their hands guts me almost beyond repair. i just wanna have it again too. i miss it. i feel left out and it makes me very sad all the time. it's not their fault. they are allowed to eat whatever they want to, whatever their intestines will allow. it just stings, bad. and i feel so ungrateful given i basically have a private chef who is doubly the love of my life. but it's just so hard. i know i'll adapt. i haven't given up hope.i just wanted to vent. thank you for reading

      The solution I had to drink contained sorbitol and mannitol. I was in the MRI, lying on my back, for about 40 minutes. I was given glucagon partway through, and a gadolinium contrast agent. After I got home there was some diarrhea from the prep solution.
