It must really stink to have to wear your gluten intolerance on the outside! I'm really sorry about that. I hope it helps to know we're all here for you! Hang in there!

I know exactly what you mean, about people staring at you like they don't want to get next to you, they might catch it. When I first got DH I always covered as much skin as possible then came summer, I finally came to the conclusion that this is me and I have a terrible disease, which is enough to worry about, I'm not about to go on worrying about what people are thinking so I woar my shorts this summer and even put a swimsuit on!!!!! That was a big achievement for me! Best of luck to you. Oh yea, I'm very sensitive to everything also, even if I do everything I'm suppose to I can still get an outbreak-who knows why? Do you think stress makes yours worse????

      @Scott Adams She may not have any damage to the joint tissue, or only slight damage. In any case, if it healed or was minimal enough not to cause permanent symptoms, she is lucky. Joints don't tend to heal well, especially with more than very minor damage. When the cartilage is gone, it's gone. My tempromandibular joint won't be recovering from this, that is for sure. I have a similar experience to OP, in wondering what my life would have been like if I had found out the cause of my suffering much sooner. Joint damage isn't the only *potential* oral symptom that I have. The dental enamel on my two front teeth never completely formed, so they have been crowned since I was about 7 years old. Since everything that has ever been wrong with me physically and mentally seems to me to be connected to this one issue, I researched "dental enamel" with "celiac disease," and found out that improperly formed dental enamel on emerging adult teeth is a very telltale sign of celiac disease in childhood. It is such a telltale sign, in fact, that the EU has medical policy in place that attempts to ensure that children with dental enamel defects are referred by their dendist to a doctor, to be screened for celiac disease. This association and the resultant policy has been known and in place in the EU since the 90s. It is now the 2020s, and America still does not have anything like this. Dentists here are completely unaware of oral signs of celiac disease. If our medical organizations had followed the EU, I could have been spared 10-15 years of suffering and the diminshed life quality and expenses that are still to come.

      I was diagnosed with celiac 19 years ago and have traveled globally. For Portugal - carry a written, translated statement (in Portuguese) that advises you have celiac disease and cannot eat gluten. Carry French translation for France. No wheat, rye or barley. I would select grilled or baked meat - ask the grill to be cleaned. Steamed veggies- no sauce. No soy sauce. No vinegars unless you know what kind. I carry gluten free bars. Eat fruit and nuts as snacks. Do - choose gluten free restaurants. It’s easier.  Always verify. Some restaurants add pancake batter to omelettes or crackers to hamburgers. Avoid French fries (tossed in flour and high risk of cross contamination in oil).  Do not drink beer - select Bulmers,Stella Artois or Angry Orchid - hard apple cider or wine. Avoid ice cream - often contains flour. I generally avoid desserts.  If you order a gluten free pizza - do not let servers put a regular pizza on top. Do not use the same pizza cutter or server. I avoided most appetizers. Fresh fruit makes a great dessert.  Or, I stop at a grocery and buy gluten free desserts and breakfast bars. Do not trust morning buffets. Hope this helps. Europe is easier than U.S. if you call ahead to verify they accommodate gluten free. If they say no, find a different restaurant.

      Keep in mind, Hannah, that of you are on a gluten free diet and want to get tested for celiac disease, any testing would be invalid until you were back on generous amounts of gluten for weeks/months.

      Hi, the test I did was an online one with list of positive feedback. I initially did the test as I thought I may be lactose intolerant but with the results showing high sensitivity to gluten as well as dairy I thought I’d just ask for foods that may benefit me and my symptoms as well as follow these results up with a blood test with my doctors. It doesn’t specify coeliac, it just showed a very high sensitivity to gluten

      Also, I've not heard of any legitimate allergy tests which use hair samples, certainly there is no test for celiac disease which uses a hair sample. Are you sure your tests are legitimate?
