    Hello! I'm pretty positive my whole family has issues with gluten. We do not have a DX...only positive results from gluten-free diet. Myself along with my three children have been gluten-free for almost a year....with a few mishaps here and there. My husband only eats gluten out of the house with the exception of beer. I've posted about this on another post...

    The feingold diet also eliminates sals, msg, and hfcs. That's interesting about food additives and celiac. What made you test for celiac? Did you test after doing the elimination diet? The reason I'm asking is my son had a rash that spread while we were eliminating additives. He had the rash for five years(dx as eczema, dermatitis, etc) and the only treatment...

    Any opinions as to what these bumps are?? They do not itch, and do not seem to bother him. I thought they could possibly be molluscum contagiosum but I'm not sure. Looking at pictures of molluscum contagiosum the bumps (warts) seem to be raised up alot more than the bumps on my son. Also, the bumps do not have dimples like described in molluscum.

    Pre-feingold my twins(boys) were getting comments sent home about inattention, forgetting homework, talking, etc. After 6 weeks (6-8 weeks of detox) my boys both made AB honor roll and no bad comments from teachers! At home I noticed less hyper behavior, they were just calm and focused! I also have a 4 year old boy....here is the true test I noticed changes...

    Have you heard of the feingold diet? Dr Feingold did a study on the negative effects food dyes, artificial flavorings and preservatives had on childrens behavior. Google it! I can really see postive behavior changes in my children since we ordered the materials and began the diet! Ive even tested it back in and the old behavior comes right back. I'm also...

    My 10 year old son also had an abnormal high level for total iGA serum...and 2 on the tTG panel. Did you have his levels checked again?? Have you found out what a high iGA total serum means?

    I have not seen him scratching them.

    Does anyone know what these flesh colored/salmon colored, round, and mostly flat bumps are called?? Has anyone else ever had these?? These are pictures of my four year old son's hand.... They are hard to see....sorry.

    My son had a huge wart on his finger last year that we had frozen off. It came back about a month ago. I have been putting enough black duct tape to cover it and then covering it again with a bandaide(so the duct tape isn't visible).....it does work but it will take more than a week. We are going on 3 weeks and it is almost gone!! I believe duct tape is used...

    I'm also O-(RH-).....I'm not DX celiac but I do suspect gluten to be a problem for me and kids.

    I dont think there is any edema in their hands....the pictures do look that way though... Has anyone had the iga total serum level test come back abnormal (high)? My son's ped doctor did not seem concerned and did not request us to come back in to have the level checked again....I'm not sure what it could mean?? Also, could the two weeks of gluten free...

    I have noticed the red bumps appearing in a symetrical pattern....bump on each arm in about the same area, etc. Thanks for all the links! I went to the photobucket account I opened...clicked on the picture and "copy and pasted" each one to here....hope that helps!

    I figured out how to make the pictures big!! The first few pictures are of the ear rash that went away when going gluten-free...it has not returned. The next few pictures are of the red bumps.....these popped up after starting gluten again after vacation in 10/12.... Twin A's hand on top.....Twin B's hand on bottom...

    This rash only went away when I put my son on a gluten free diet.....could it be DH? He is 10 years old. His twin brother had no rashes until we reintroduced gluten in July....his rash started also behind his ear and went away when we went back on the gluten-free diet. After a vacation in Oct.2012 we again ate gluten and there were no signs of the rashes...

    Yes, unfortunately I did not know what to request when I had them tested. I'm not sure if getting a DX is worth the possible effects of eating gluten for them....Thanks for the link!!

    Here are some pictures. My son's ear rash has been DX as many different conditions...psoriasis, seborrea derm, eczema.....and the only treatment that cleared it up was going gluten-free. The pictures of the "red bumps" are on all three of my son's. These small red bumps appeared after we came back from vacation and continued to eat gluten. I have no idea...

    Thank you! That makes sense. I absolutely see the effect gluten has on us. I would love to post some pictures of the rashes to get some opinions, but I don't know how to post pictures on here. Thanks again!

    Hello, I'm not sure where to begin but I'll try... This is about my 10 year old son (he is a twin born at 32 weeks and had "eczema" untill 2/3 years old). He had his tonsils and adenoids out when he turned five because they were enlarged due to reaccurring ear/sinusitis infections. Soon after surgery and right after starting school he contracted a MRSA...
