Bug Crawling Or Hair On Skin Sensation


AVR1962

Recommended Posts

Before I went gluten-free I was having issues with a feeling of hairs on skin that were not there or bugs crawling on my skin that were also were not there. That all passed being on the diet and staying away from wheat. Now my husband is having the same issue. Anyone know the reason for this?

Husband says he wants to talk to his doc before going on a gluten-free diet. I hope he gets answers, docs could not help me.

Anyone else here have these issues before going off gluten? I did, and not had any issues since. I definately want to hear a doc's opinion on this and see what their approach will be but it has been my experience that if this is a reaction to gluten they are not going to be aware. I am not sure doc's even consider problems asociated with gluten.

It can also be an allergic reaction. I seem to get this several hours after eating something or taking a medication that I am having some sort of mild reaction to. I've had it after eating something that was gluten free, but had certain food coloring in it, or possible antibiotic residue because the item was not organic.

But the neuro symptoms are more like the most annoying, constant buzz as if you are hitting the electric fence and are partially insulated.

      Thank you for the links to the articles.  Interesting reading. I'll be telling my brother in law because he has a lot of pain

      Oats naturally contain a protein called avenin, which is similar to the gluten proteins found in wheat, barley, and rye. While avenin is generally considered safe for most people with celiac disease, some individuals, around 5-10% of celiacs, may also have sensitivity to avenin, leading to symptoms similar to gluten exposure. You may fall into this category, and eliminating them is the best way to figure this out. Some people substitute gluten-free quinoa flakes for oats if they want a hot cereal substitute. If you are interested in summaries of scientific publications on the topic of oats and celiac disease, we have an entire category dedicated to it which is here: https://www.celiac.com/celiac-disease/oats-and-celiac-disease-are-they-gluten-free/
