I haven’t been diagnosed formally. My doctor always called it eczema but over the years I have figured out it isn’t. 
I’ll do some research on iodine. Thanks for that info. 

I was eating gluten at the time it was done. I do not eat commercially processed food and we make it all from scratch so I wonder if that might cause an issue. 

The rash on my hands is the little blisters or  dermatitisherpetiformi you are referencing. They itch like crazy and no doctor has ever been able to get them to go away. When I remove gluten from my diet they go away. I decided to do the test for that reason. It’s really my only symptom but my sister has celiac disease and the same hand rash. her doctor recommended I get tested. 

My insurance didn’t cover testing but my results came back as normal but high for Immunoglobin A. I added the notes below. I have gluten rashes on my hands that go away when I take gluten out of my diet. What do these results mean? They didn’t give me much info and I’d love some help. 
thank you.
