I am so nervous about my dermatologist appointment today. I guess the only good thing is my skin is lflared up really bad. I do have a feeling that they are going to just say it's eczema again. But I am really going to push for a biopsy.

Well she did a biopsy on a hive/ rash spot. She said she wanted to see what that said and then if need be do Another. I go back in 2 weeks. I might just try gluten free anyways

Did you ask her to do one beside a lesion? Seems a shame to go back again if it comes back negative..

I'm sorry. sad.gifThis happens all the time. Now what would it have hurt her to do BOTH at one time? You may not have an active lesion in 2 weeks. And it sounds like she doesn't know what she is doing.

      Thank you so much, everyone. For the moment my doctor just has me taking iron but hopefully we can reconnect soon. I'm going to look into genetic testing, too. Great advice all around and I appreciate it--and you can bet I'm going off the PPIs!

      I walk fast for fitness, 4 to 6 km per day. I am also 74 years old. Apart from the Celiac challenge, my lifestyle is healthy. I had a sciatiac nerve pinching under my one foot, with inflamation in my whole shin. It was almost cured, when the other shin started paining and burning. I do stretches, use a natural cooling gel and rest my feet. Can Celiac cause muscle pains/inflamation, or is it just over-excercising?

      I recently started shopping at a nearby Trader Joe's store. I was surprised at the number and variety of (healthy) gluten-free options sold there. I must admit their low prices are also quite tempting. However, I am curious as to the labeling on all their packages. While none of their products are certified as gluten-free, many are identified as 'GLUTEN FREE' on the packaging. Are these items safe for celiacs? Has anyone tried Trader Joe's products and have there been any adverse reactions?

      HI, my doctor suggested one week of consuming gluten before blood tests.  I have been gluten free for 3 years.  Has anyone been through this and will I get exact results after one week of consuming gluten?  I don't even know if I can do this, if I get sick I am not sure if I can continue, any suggestions??  Thanks in advance.

      I did reach out to them on April 4th and left a message. I will try calling again. Thank you!
