Probably Off Topic, But Have To Ask This Question...

I am here to ask this question. I might not able to get answers or any responses back from any of you.

I noticed that acnes and pimples appears frequenently when I am eating plenty of gluten in almost every meals. Even, My proasrsis flares up like crazy and I started to getting extremely dried skin on kneecaps and elbowes that seem so built up that dont shred normally.

I am bit loss at this since I hasnt been tested yet. I am just mumbling over this since i already did gluten free diet for a week and my skin clears up bit better and I sticked to wholesome foods rather than processed food. This could be just a funky thing?

I started to eat increased intake of gluten in past couple of weeks and noticed the problems starting come back with strong vengance. its a heavy comeback and causes me to have some discomfort with pimples and acnes on my chin. I feel so itchy on my upper back that i seem cant stop itch even it woke me up during at nighttime to jsut itch. i feel like ughs about it my skin dont look horrible but at certain points in past years, it seem it look bad but they fade away when i dont eat too much of breads and pastas.

I dont know if be gluten free diet really do make a difference with all celiac or gluten intolerant's skins or it would just be stress which i hasnt really been stressed out much lately. just a normal light stress as part of daily life.

Just would like to have the opinions on this to see if it does associates with eating lot of gluten?

thanks you for your time for reading this..

well....if your skin responds poorly to stress, then absolutely gluten-free would help that. If your body doesn't do well with gluten, then you are causing yourself stress every time you eat it. Removing gluten would remove that stress, and your skin will reflect that.

Areas that itch a great deal may be DH. If you can go to a dermatologist and have them biopsy the skin next to a lesion to check for it. A diagnosis of DH is a diagnosis of celiac.

Raven gives good advice. Listen to her. And if you go to a derm who is experienced in dh & get a positive biopsy then you won't have to gluten yourself anymore for any future tests.

I get this same reaction when I eat gluten...breaking out, itching on my stomach, dry skin, and increased psoriasis. However, I do not have DH. From what I've read, you typically do not have DH AND psoriasis, but it is possible none the less. I could just be your body's reaction to eating gluten.

      Newly diagnosed, struggling

      By Wheatwacked · Posted

      Hello @CeliacNew, If you are Vegan to help you feel better, reconsider returning to omnivore.  Actually, since you are already on a very restrictive diet, transitioning to gluten free might be easier for you.  Read the ingredient labels, Particularly vitamin D and Choline require supplements for vegan diet because our primary source is sun, eggs and beef.  B12 also.

      Multiple symptoms and mixed provider responses

      By Wheatwacked · Posted

      Once you've completed testing and still don't have improvement, start a trial gluten free diet.  Looking for imprvement that may indicate Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity, which is 10 times more prevalent than Celiac Disease. Deficiencies in vitamins B6, B12, D, and C can manifest as skin rashes.  Virtual guaranty you are deficient in vitamin D.

      Help vetting HLA-DQ typing provider

      So those rs numbers tell researchers where the dbSNP is located in a Genome so that other reasearchers or an AI system can look in that specific spot for that Snip of information.  You can look those rs # s by pasting the numbers after rs into the lookup on this page https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/snp/ right under the Blue header bar at the top of the webpage.  Since you are not a researcher, I do not know how this will help you though.

      Finally got in to doctor to get my referral and I lucked out and got into Gastro the same day - question about different transglutaminase results

      By cameo674 · Posted

      So I posted here once before, and everyone advocated that I get into a GI doc.  I finally got into my functional health appointment on 6/16 to get my blood results evaluated and get the Gastro referral. I was told that I would be fortunate to see a gastro doctor by December, because of the number of people waiting to get in, but they did believe that I needed to see a GI doc among others.  Well, the stars aligned. I got home. I looked at MyChart and it showed an appointment available for later that same day. I never clicked so fast on an appointment time. The gastro doc ran some additional blood work based off the December values that had confirmed my daughter's suspicion that I have...

      Worried about being isolated

      I agree with @trents and wiping down the spot you eat your lunch, and eating the food your brought from home should be safe for even sensitive celiacs. Gluten can jump on your food, so it would likely better better for you to continue eating where you prefer.
