Hi Fran, This rash sounds like Dermatitis Herpetaformis, which is a rash conneceted with Celiac Disease. I get this rash any time I ingest anything with gluten or use anything with gluten in it, such as creams, shampoo, toothpaste, etc..I don't always get the GI symptoms when I just get contaminated from gluten but I do break out with this rash in about ...

Yes you can have them any where. I get them on my knee's, elbow's, feet, hands, torso, inside my ears, my eye's, my private area, around my mouth, my arms & legs, in other words all over, lol. But as long as I stay TOTALLY gluten free I am totally clear of any rash. If I so much as get a crumb of bread, or kiss my grandchildren after they have eaten,...

Hi Lexi, I don't know if this will help you but it is worth a try. I have been having your exact same problems plus a long list of others, but as for your yeast you might want to go to a dermatologist. I have yeast problems really bad, so when I started taking some fungal medications for a fungal problem in my sinuses I just thought it was a worse yeast infection...

I have been having severe headaches for about 25 years. I am 49 years old and a confirmed celiac for 3 years. I also started having severe sinus problems 3 years ago and have had 6 sinus surgeries, by a sinus specialist at Stanford Hospital in San Francisco. My doctor cannot figure out what is in my sinuses and it just keeps coming back. I have been on a...

Mine does. My chin will look horrible at times, but as long as I stay gluten-free it looks fine. I am 48 and live with my husband and 20 year old daughter so I have my own area of the kitchen with stays gluten-free all the time. I have my own pots and pans and cooking utinsils. It is amazing how little gluten it takes for me to break out. I no longer eat...

Hi Alona, Yes, your Dr. can do a biopsy. That is how I was diagnosed. They just have to make sure they do the biopsy right. It took 3 trys and the 4th to confirm DH. I have been gluten-free for over a year now, but if I do get any gluten, even a crumb, I break out with blisters in many area's including inside my ears, my privates, my eyelids, my hands. You...

Hi, I have your same problem's, but one of my dr's realized I was having anxiety attacks due to all my health issue's and he put me on anxiety medication and all my symptoms of that went away. I still have the same problems of having to always stay gluten free, I still have dermatitis herpetiformis and my many other ailments, but my heart has settled down...

Thank you! BIG HELP!

Thank you for your help! Thats sort of what I thought but I wanted to make sure. Do you happen to know of anything simalar to milk of magnesia that is gluten free that I could mention to my dr?

Does anyone know if Milk of Magnesia is gluten free? My Dr. wants me to take it every other day but he dosen't know and neither do I. Please help! Thanks!

Oh wow, you have all been very helpful. Now I wish my Doctors could do the same. In answer to the question about what my symptoms are, here goes. I was diagnosed just this last February with DH after years of suffering. They found this out after 4 skin biopsy's and then they did blood work to confirm Celiac. I went gluten free that day and was improving....

OK, I need your help. Does anyone know if there is gluten in Immunotherapy-Sublingual Therapy?(which are Allergy shots) I have tried asking my Allergist and I get no where. I have been gluten free since Feb. this year and I have now been soy and casein free since last month and I just keep getting worse. I have a gluten free kitchen, I use all gluten free...

Hey Spunky! Thank you for that info on Dogtorj. I just got done reading some of it and it was quite interesting and I have a lot more to read. I have learned so much since becoming a member and I just thank everyone. Tigertail (Lacey)

Thanks everyone for your input.You have all been a great help!

Hi, Well it sure sounds like DH, but the best way to know for sure would be to see a dermatologist and have a biopsy done. I had four done before they finely did the biopsy right and got the correct diagnosis. I have been dealing with DH for years and I break out within 10 minutes of ingesting gluten even if it is just a very small amount and the breakout...
