Thanks for your input everyone. I think the best thing for me to do is eat a paleo diet of unprocessed meats and fruits and veggies. I know spinach and potatoe skins and asparagus are high in iodine so I will avoid those. I will also avoid dairy of course. And soy. And I will only eat at home so that I can know for sure that my seasonings are iodine free...

I though DH was "most often" related to gluten antibodies but sometimes triggered by something else? I'm looking for that. Something else.

I give the dog Wellness Core dog food which was reccommended by someone from this forum and her treats are human food. He same thing I eat. Turkey breast and such.

Yes. I went to a support group and will continue to go (it's only once a month). I also met with a nutritionalist. I don't even eat packaged foods if they were made in the same facility as gluten. I feel like Im doing everything except I found the low iodine diet to be a challenge and didn't do it for much longer than a week. Maybe I should give it another...

To those of you who flare up with things other than gluten..... how did you come to learn what they were? was it through elimination? or did you have some sort of test performed by an allergist? The reason I ask is because I have an appointment with an allergist on Friday, and if any of you had luck with a method that is commonly used in that field, I'd like...

I am getting CC'd somewhere and I think it may be because my dog eats her food (which contains barley and oats) and then cozies up with me. little crumbs are left near her mouth and I'm sure the kisses she gives me don't help. Does anyone have their pet on a gluten-free diet? I looked for gluten-free food last night, but after reading about 10 labels...

All my toiletries and meds are gluten-free. My house and girlfriend are gluten-free. One cool thing.... As far as I know, the egg iodine is in the yolk. I've been eating scrambled egg whites, it's nice to have them. As far as being around gluten, I work at Starbucks. I don't ever touch the pastries, as it is against health code. . . But I know i must...

Has anyone been so frustrated with all the food restrictions and possible sensitivities that they stopped eating? Last summer I went 18 days without food, drinking only juice that I juiced at home in my own juicer. Nothing added, ever. That was before I was DH diagnosed and I had a feeling it was some sort of food allergy and figured I'd eliminate the...

Thanks!! I went to a diatician and went over some of the foods in my diet. I also found a gluten intollerance group in my city that hooks newbies up with more experienced mentors. I don't have a mentor yet because meetings are just once a month and I found it just a few weeks ago. Very excited to talk with a fellow DH sufferer though. One other thing...

I was diagnosed with DH in Oct. through a biopsy. I have been gluten free since Oct. 15 (two and a half months) and am still getting new sores. I feel confident that I have eliminated all gluten, I called by rx manufactuers, cleaned out my house and fridge, replaced toaster. I read Idodine will prevent my rash from clearing up. but I looked up high...
