Itching!

I am new at the gluten free diet, having been diagnosed with celiacs disease about a month ago. I have read that many people with celiacs disease also have a problem with milk. I am wondering if anyone could give me some insite or has had the same problem as me. Before being diagnosed with celiacs disease, I had rashes and my body itched all over all the time. I went on a gluten free/lactose free diet. The itches and rash disappeared. I started drinking milk again and a week later I am having the same problem with the itching and rashes. Does anyone know if milk can do that? Does anyone else have this issue? Or would the itching and rashes possibly be from something else?

Hi,

I know what you mean to itching all the time.. I am the same way... I was diagnosied about 6 weeks ago with Celiac...

Two years ago is when I had DH but at that time I did not know what it was other then an allergic reaction... It happened on my right knee while at work and boy did it burn, itch and sting all together... I had big welts on my knee so I made a dr appt right away and got off work early...

Even though I have been gluten free for about 6 weeks I am still tired all time and I still itch but without the big welts... I do have small rashes on my shoulders and parts of my arms...

Actually I don't remember itching this bad before I went Gluten free...

I'm like you and am not sure of what or why...

Sorry as for milk I'm not sure since I am fairly new like you but I would not put it past the milk to make you itch since you already have Celiac... There are a lot of blogs out there that can give you all kinds of info... You can also go to ask.com and see if you can find out...

Hope this helps

      Sainsbury's Free From White Sliced Bread - Now Egg Free - Completely Ruined It

      More great tips, and a good excuse to shop at M&S and also buy more iced buns!   I wish we had an ASDA near us, as the few times we've been to one their gluten-free pasta range seemed very reasonably priced compared to other shops.  Thanks so much, @Russ H.

      Shingles - Could It Be Related to Gluten/ Celiac

      By Russ H · Posted

      I hope you are on the mend soon. About 1 in 5 people who contracted chicken pox as a child go on to develop shingles in later life - it is not uncommon. There are 5 known members of the herpes virus family including chicken pox that commonly infect humans, and they all cause lifelong infections. The exact cause of viral reactivation as in the case of shingles or cold sores is not well understood, but stress, sunburn and radiotherapy treatment are known triggers. Some of the herpes viruses are implicated in triggering autoimmune diseases: Epstein-Barr virus is suspected of triggering multiple sclerosis and lupus, and there is a case where it is suspected of triggering coeliac disease. As to whether coeliac disease can increase the likelihood of viral reactivation, there have been several cohort studies including a large one in Sweden suggesting that coeliac disease is associated with a moderate increase in the likelihood of developing shingles in people over the age of 50.

      BFree bread is fortified with vitamins and minerals as is ASDA own-brand gluten-free bread. All the M&S bread seems to be fortified also.
