If You Break Open Your Blisters ...

I get relief from my blisters if I break them open and put the triamcinolone.

Does this make them spread? I can not use dapasone.

Thanks for you advice.

I have no idea, does it seem to be spreading when you do this?

When I had a rash on my arms it spread once I started scratching it. I have no idea if it was DH though. Never found out for sure.

I think it spreads on me. I can feel the liquid on my body. If there is a large area,

I shower and re-lotion. I think it helps.

It didn't spread it on me when I had DH. But it created sores.

It seems like the only relief I get is from breaking the sores open, but then they just get bigger and fill back up with liquid. So I end up tearing off the skin, letting it scab over and eventually heal. After doing this over and over you end up with scars. But if I do nothing, they just get worse to the point that if anything touches them, it hurts. I am pregnant, so I just went off dapsone and I am in hell. I have been gluten-free for a week (still learning about cross-contamination and other hidden culprits), and I am covered in blisters. I'm hoping it won't last much longer. And I am sooooo glad it is no longer shorts and tank top weather where I live!!!

      Burning Sensation in the small intestine

      Thanks, @trents, lactose intolerance is different than a reaction to casein. Consuming casein could be causing that continuing antibody reaction causing localized inflammation. Still worth trying a diet without it. Since you mentioned your father passing, you may want to add Benfotiamine. Benfotiamine is a form of thiamine Vitamin B 1 that has been...

      @pilber309, as knittykitty pointed out, lactose intolerance is not the only issue with dairy in celiac community. Lactose intolerance has to do with the sugar component of dairy, lactose. However, some celiacs react to a protein fraction in dairy, namely, casein, like they do gluten.

      Can You Really Trust Gluten-Free Menus? What Every Celiac Needs to Know Before Eating Out

      Over the last 3+ years I've had very good experiences with waitstaff being very knowledgeable about celiac in some chain and other restaurants. Some good news: I recently verified that Jack in the Box has separate fryers for breaded food and their French fries. I've had their S/W chicken salad (grilled), fries and TONS of their tacos with no ill effects...

      Thanks, @trents, lactose intolerance is different than a reaction to casein.  Consuming casein could be causing that continuing antibody reaction causing localized inflammation.  Still worth trying a diet without it. Since you mentioned your father passing, you may want to add Benfotiamine.  Benfotiamine is a form of thiamine Vitamin B 1 that has been shown to improve intestinal health.  Tryptophan is helpful, too.  Tryptophan is derived from Niacin Vitamin B 3, and helps repair the intestinal tract.  Tryptophan works well with the amino acid Theanine.  So all three help immensely.   We need additional thiamine when we're emotionally stressed, physically ill and exercise a lot  or do physical labor.  The brain uses the most thiamine of any organ, twenty percent of intake!   What's your fruity probiotic?
