I have no idea. I got a low grade fever once with mine when the lesions got BIG.

Mine never has and he was broken out for 7 months straight. I have no idea if it's possible though. See what a big help I am?

I know my older kids though are the kings of viral rashes that appear either out of nowhere or following a cold or illness of some sort. Maybe it's that?

Thanks you guys. And SPJ&E you did help so don't say you aren't. I just got word today that my nephews daughter had a bad episode which they had to take her to the hospital for. She broke out in a blistering rash & got a high fever so bad that she had seizures from it. My first thought was is this related to celiac? My nephew was offline for a while but I've just heard back from him that they said it was/is hand & mouth (foot & mouth?). He said she gets psoriasis though. He says she's still itchy all over her body & they have her on claritin for the rash & an antibiotic for an ear infection.

Pardon me for being stupid but I had no children & I don't know much about all the stuff they go through.

Our family has been somewhat disjointed/dysfunctional as far as not sticking close with each other so I hadn't had contact with my nephew for a while. I wanted to let him know about celiac & had tracked him down to tell him. Found out his sister, my niece passed away in April. Loved her very much. Drugs & alcohol. sad.gif

I'm sorry to hear about your niece. Very sad news, indeed.

Thank you Prickly. She was only 32. Her liver shut down which in turn caused her kidneys to shut down. They made the decision to take her off life support.

      hi, i want to say thank you to you and @trents   . after 2 phone calls to my GI, her office called me back to tell me that a blood test was “unnecessary” and that we should “follow the gold standard” and since my biopsy did not indicate celiac, to follow the no dairy and sucraid diet. i luckily have expendable income and made an appt for the labcorp blood test that day. i just got my results back and it indicates celiac disease i think 😭   im honestly happy bc now i KNOW and i can go gluten free. and i am SO MAD at this doctor for dismissing me for a simple blood test that wouldn’t have cost her anything !!!!!!!!!!! im sorry, im so emotional right now, i have been sick my whole life and never knew why, i feel so much better already   my results from labcorp:   Celiac Ab tTG TIgA w/Rflx Test Current Result and Flag Previous Result and Date Units Reference Interval t-Transglutaminase (tTG) IgA 01 28 High U/mL 0-3 Negative 0 - 3 Weak Positive 4 - 10 Positive >10 Tissue Transglutaminase (tTG) has been identified as the endomysial antigen. Studies have demonstrated that endomysial IgA antibodies have over 99% specificity for gluten sensitive enteropathy. Immunoglobulin A, Qn, Serum 01 245 mg/dL 87-352

      Thank you this really helped.

      Okay that is really good to know. So with that being positive and the other being high it makes sense she diagnosed her even without the endoscopy. So glad we caught it early. She had so many symptoms though that to me it was clear something was wrong.   yeah I think we had better test us and the other kids as well.

      One doctor suggested it, but then seemed irritated when I asked follow-up questions. Oh well—

      @GlorietaKaro, your respiratory reactions to gluten make me wonder if there might also be an allergic (anaphylaxis) component at work here.
