Other Food Allergies?

I still occasionally have bathroom issues. I was ok at first...maybe the first year, and I KNOW when I get glutened as I get the bad pain/sweating/headaches/D and so on. There are days that I go to the bathroom 3-5 times with no pain or D related to it. It just becomes "urgent" and I have to go. I really don't think I am driven enough to do an elimination diet, and would probably stress myself out more then I do already with being gluten-free. So who would I see about other food intolerance/allergies? Would it be my gastroenterologist or could my normal doctor do that kind of thing? What tests would they do?

Sorry for all the questions...But, I have also heard people who have Celiac have to take a Probiotic to have a more healthy gut? Which one's are relatively cheap and gluten-free if this would be the way to go?? Thanks!!

gluten free overseas Apprentice

I am very new to the gluten free life, so I am not an expert. I liked entrolab.com

I found out that my son has problems with gluten, casein (milk), and eggs. I didn't even need a doctor's appointment--they just send you the kit, and you mail it back to them. It's a consideration for you. They test for other things too like soy and yeast etc.

Good luck!

Thanks for the info!

      You might also consider a low iodine diet as iodine is know to exacerbate dermatitis herpetiformis. But be careful with that as well as there are health problems that can accrue from iodine deficiency.

      Hi, Yes, the rash has gone. I still get the itches but there is nothing to see now, apart from a lot of discoloured areas where the rash was worst. Occasionally I get a single lump come up, a bit like hives, but no bigger than a pea and it goes after 24hrs and a steroid cream application.  And yes, giving the gluten-free diet 110%. Very careful about any cross contamination.  This is my fifth autoimmune condition so well and truly on that bandwagon.

      Welcome to the the celiac.com community, @suek54! Is the Dapsone getting the rash under control? Are you practicing a gluten free diet yet? The only known cause for dermatitis herpetiformis is celiac disease.

      Hi Im new to this game, so bear with me.  May through to December last year totally miserable, covered literally head to toe in the worst rash ever, itching like I just cant explain. After seven different medics told me just to "keep putting the cream on, whatever it is will go in the end" finally one lovely doc diagnosed dermatitis herpetiformis. Biopsy 6 weeks ago and Dapsone, which I seem to be tolerating OK so far.  The NHS is in permanent backlog so no result yet but just wanted to say hello to anyone else with this maddening condition.

      I know gluten free proteins like eggs and yogurt but nuts especially trail mixes are tricky as they are hard to find certified gluten free trail mixes especially w/o added sugars. I agree subscription boxes are hit or miss I think I have found RXBar with simple ingredients no added sugars gluten-free might be a great protein bar.
