    That is a really good point that I hadn't considered. Before I went gluten free my doctor increased my lamictal dosage from 200 mg to 300, and today she wondered if that might be what was triggering this episode. She had me lower the dosage back to 200 and increased my anxiety medication a little as a temporary fix. You've given me some hope now! ...

    Hi, all. I'm schizoaffective/bipolar subtype and have been taking the same meds for over a year and have had relative stability. Last month I finally went gluten free after a celiac diagnosis and I started to feel really good. More energetic, more motivated, and more productive. However, as of last night/this morning I have had uncontrollable, racing...

    In addition to DH, I have had (what I've always assumed is) body acne since puberty that never went away (I'm 28 now) despite having extremely dry skin. Since going gluten free, I have also replaced all my bath and body products with gluten free alternatives, as well as moisturizing my DH lesions, acne (or whatever) breakouts, and my keratosis pilaris with...

    I'm quite new to this, but I think it's pretty obvious what's going on. Your 10 years gluten free healed your body. From what I understand, gluten has a cumulative effect, so it's only a matter of time before your antibodies are out of control again if you continue to gluten yourself. I don't mean to be offensive. It's just that I've suffered with DH...

    I'm not an expert by any means, and I only found out what I have is DH less than 2 months ago, but your spots look exactly the way mine did in the early stages. I've had this current outbreak for over a year now and have only been gluten-free for a few weeks at this point, but I've had some marginal relief after switching all my bath and body products to...

    Thank you, Adalaide. I'm so glad I found this place, it has been a huge source of comfort and information. The improvement on the C and D front is how I know I'm on the right track, really, so that's a relief. I was not aware of the iodine issue with DH. I'm going to go to the DH section and read up on it right now.

    Hi everyone. I've only been gluten-free since Friday, when I decided that enough is enough. Celiac runs in my family and recently my health has declined rapidly. I have terrible GI problems, extreme joint and bone pain, THE RASH (oh god, help me!), and a myriad of other health problems that, over the past couple of months, have rendered me almost an invalid...
