I'm pretty sure me and at least one of my daughter's has DH, my other daughter gets a rash but it's a little different so not sure about her's? I get it on my jaw line, hair line, and back. I also get mouth ulcer's which are a pretty good sign of a decent exposure for me. I'm wondering if ulcer's are more common with people that have DH?

I can only speak from experience. In my family, my son and I have DH, and my daughter (who doesn't have DH) has mouth ulcers.

I think the mouth is an interesting area when it comes to gluten intolerance. I got head to ankle DH in June. Now it is mostly torso to hands. I've always been itchy/scratchy since I remember.

I got one mouth ulcer in July when I wasn't as strict as I need to be.

I don't have any particular mouth/dental issues.

I don't know about just with DH, but my mouth ulcers disappeared when I went gluten-free.

Thanks everyone! I definitely know my ulcer's are connected to gluten, just wasn't sure if this was more common with people who have DH. Thanks! :)

      Lymph nodes

      By Soleihey · Posted

      Has anyone experimenced enlarged lymph nodes with celiac? Both in the neck and groin area. Imaging of both areas have said that lymph nodes are reactive in nature. However, they have been present for months and just wondering how long this may take to go down. Been gluten-free for about two months. Blood counts are normal.

      Hmm interesting I just assumed that any “IGA” tests including the DPG iga would be negative in a person who is IGA deficient but maybe that is not the case for the DPG test.

      If you were just diagnosed I can say that if you go 100% gluten-free should should see dramatic improvement of your symptoms over the next few months, but the hard part is to stay gluten-free. This article has some detailed information on how to be 100% gluten-free, so it may be helpful (be sure to also read the comments section.):

      Isolated DPG-Iga

      By trents · Posted

      From the article I linked above: DGP-IgA and DGP-IgG (Deamidated Gliadin Peptide) Blood Tests for Celiac Disease These tests measure the levels of antibodies in the blood, but specifically targets deamidated gliadin peptides, which are a type of gluten protein that can trigger an immune response in people with celiac disease. The test is not always included in adults, but should be in cases with IgA deficiency.  I'm not sure if this is a grammatical error or not but in the context, two tests are being spoken of together so it could be intended to say, "These tests". I'll ask Scott about that.

      No they did not run a total IGA. But wouldn’t the DPG-IGA also be negative also if I was IGA deficient? They did also run a TTG-IGG and a DPG-IGG and they were also negative.
