does anyone have any pics? i need to see what these look like I tried google and I didn't find any related to celiac/gluten. My ds and I both have redness under our eyes and I didn't know if that was something to do with gluten or not. thanks!

No pictures, but for me I had dark circles under my eyes before going gluten-free. I also had flushed facial skin and was pale a lot with mottled skin tones. My feet and ankles also swell when I get into food allergens. Feet also look mottled.

My allergy eyes went away on gluten-free though.

My son gets dark circles under his eyes when he has been glutened . . . he also tends to get a rash around his mouth - looks like very chapped lips - but it comes on suddenly and takes days to heal. His only real symptom of celiac disease is a marked change in behavior - we get tantrums, frustration, anger, mood swings, etc. It all lasts about a week.

Here is a photo from when he was recovering from being glutened . . . this is when it was almost gone:

Not sure if I would call it "allergy shiners" but usually I can take one look at him and know something is wrong.

      I've used magnesium taurinate and magnesium taurate vitamins.  Didn't notice much of a difference when I used them.

      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.

      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.
