Any Dr Experienced In Celiac Dh In The Uk?

I'm undergoing investigation for celiac (althoug Dr is reluctant) and wont even entertain the possibility that it could be DH. I have posted pictures in the DH section and would be greatful if any Dr could have a look at them? I was diagnosed with behcets at 16 and put on dapsone. Since being off dapsone for 2 years I have had symptoms that seem more celiac orientated than Behcets. I have suffered with abdominal pain all my life, extra gassy, tiredness, fatigue, irritability, mood swings, depression and a struggle to manage weight, nausea and anemia - severe in pregnancy. In the last couple of months and on the odd occasion I forgot to take dapsone I would break out in a rash - it does seem to appear after eating certain foods, this rash used to just be lower legs but now is buttocks and occasionally knees and elbows, slightly different facial rash - more purple in colour and painfull too. Please, if anyone can help I'd be greatful as I keep hitting a dead end with my Dr. He ordered one blood test which he says is negative but won't give me the official levels and has put me through a colonoscopy - which was clear and cheaper than an endoscopy! I am set to see a dermatologist in 3 weeks and a gastro intestinal consultant in october although my Dr assured me they would unlikely do an endoscopy.

      This treatment looks promising. Its aim is to provoke immune tolerance of gluten, possibly curing the disease. It passed the phase 2 trial with flying colours, and I came across a post on Reddit by one of the study volunteers. Apparently, the results were good enough that the company is applying for fast track approval.  Anokion Announces Positive Symptom Data from its Phase 2 Trial Evaluating KAN-101 for the Treatment of Celiac Disease https://www.reddit.com/r/Celiac/comments/1krx2wh/kan_101_trial_put_on_hold/

      Hi everyone  This has been a crazy year so far... How many people actually get entire sensory overload from gluten or something similar ?  My jaw is going nuts ..and that nerve is affecting my upper back and so on ...  Bones even hurt.  Brain fog. Etc  I had eggs seemed fine.   Then my aid cooked a chicken stir fry in the microwave because my food order shorted a couple key items .   I was so hungry but I noticed light breading and some ingredients with SOY !!! Why are we suffering with soy ? This triggered a sensitivity to bananas and gluten-free yogurt it seems like it's a cycle that it goes on.  The tiniest amount of something gets me I'm guessing the tiny bit of breading that I took one tiny nibble of ...yikes ..im cringing from it .. Feels like my stomach is going to explode yet still very hungry 😔  How long does this last?! Thank you so much

      I have had orthodontic work done. The 3M invisalign material was no problem. BUT my retainers are another matter. They seemed okay for a few months. Now, however, they cause a burning sensation on my tongue, gums and insides of my lips. The burning sensation is now spreading to my throat. I notice it when I breathe. This is annoying and interferes with my enjoyment of eating. I am visiting with my provider tomorrow. We'll see where this goes from here.
