Just wondering, just noticed ds has these all over the back of his arms. I"ll try to get a picture up tomorrow...I don't think it itches, I never see him scratch his arms(it's on the back of his arms) and never complains that it's itchy.

I've looked at lots of pictures and still can't tell what it is, I'll be making a derm appointment for him, but thought I"d check here. :)

DH ITCHES!!!!! And or burns & or stings.

However, it could be a precursor to dh.

Could it be keratosis pilaris? I have this problem, it has caused me great embarrassment before I knew what it was.

There are other skin conditions associated with celiac disease: Open Original Shared Link

It may be one of those.

      Thank you that’s really helpful, hopeful won’t have to have a biopsy.

      Waiting Gastroenterology review

      That means the normal range (i.e. not celiac disease) would be a result less than 14.99.  Your result is WAY above that. Some gastroenterologists would diagnose that as celiac disease even without a confirming biopsy because it is more than ten times the top of the normal range.

      Diagnosis and further testing Celiac

      By Redanafs · Posted

      Hi everyone. Back in 2022 I had blood work drawn for iga ext gliadin. Since then I’ve developed worse stomach issues and all other health issues. My doctor just said cut out gluten. He did no further testing. Please see my test results attached. I just need some direction cause I feel so ill and the stomach pain is becoming worse. Can this test show indications for other gastrointestinal diseases?

      Does Dailymed.nlm.nih.gov site have filters for gluten?

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Clearly from what you've said the info on Dailymed is much more up to date than the other site, which hasn't been updated since 2017. The fact that some companies might be repackaging drugs does not mean the info on the ingredients is not correct.
