Wow! Thanks so much for all this information, Squirmingitch! You have done an enormous amount of research! I am very impressed and also, very grateful! I am going to give it all a good read although, I suspect it will take some time to digest. It would seem that my derm definitely screwed up when she took the biopsy directly on the rash. And, seeing...

Can you believe it?! When I went to the dermatologist in December, she did a biopsy but did the surgery smack dab on a spot where I had the most severe rash! :o/ I wish I had known at that time, that this was not acceptable! Then, she almost planted one of those Elastoplast bandages on the wound! I looked her straight in the eye and told her that the...

Yikes! Hearing that I am most likely in for the long haul is not news that I really wanted to hear! But, I must admit that it does help somewhat when I have a clear idea of what to expect - it kind of takes the mystery out of things.

Yes! I do! Sometimes I wonder how on earth I can continue to live the rest of my life going through this kind of hell! They can send probes to Mars but they can't figure out how to cure an unbearably itchy, burning, prickling rash! What's THAT all about?! :-/ -

ARCHIVED Does Dh Always Itch?
Itch Be Gone replied to roomorganizing's topic in Dermatitis Herpetiformis
About 15 years ago, I developed an unbearably itchy rash over most of my body, that lasted almost a year. Thankfully, it eventually cleared up but after that, I would, from time-to-time, develop itchy patches and also experience major flare-ups 2 or 3 times a year that would last about a month or so. Last August, I developed a horrible, prickly, burning...
