  1. I remember my dr telling me that gluten is too large to pass through the skin so I didn’t need to worry about lotions, shampoo, makeup etc being gluten free unless I was putting it on my lips. Have any of you found you still had symptoms from using non-gluten-free products? I was struggling with a bumpy genital rash (looked like DH) for about a month and t...
  2. In the last couple weeks I’ve had these itchy bumps beside my anus. They’re not painful and I’ve never been diagnosed with an STD. My last partner was over a year ago now so I just really don’t think that’s it. I have sensitive skin and get DH on my legs and occasionally fingers so I’m wondering if this genital rash could be DH?
  3. I was diagnosed celiac 5 years ago but I never saw my digestive issues as bad as so many other people have. After having pretty normal BMs, I first noticed things changing a bit in the summer. I started having loose stools daily - not quite diarrhea but just more urgent/loose than normal and seemed to be brought on when I was a bit more anxious like before...
  4. I was diagnosed celiac back in 2015 and have been on a gluten-free diet since. I never had major GI symptoms and I wouldn’t say I’m very in tune with my body so I wouldn’t notice if I felt worse after having a meal with gluten but overall I did feel better after going gluten-free. Now a couple years on, I’m not feeling great. The biggest symptom...
  5. Hi everyone, I was diagnosed celiac in 2015 after a doctor looked into malabsorption problems as I was very low in various nutrients (iron, B12, D3). I have been on a gluten free diet since then but I’m still struggling with these deficiencies. I don’t want to have to be on supplements forever and it seems even though I take them consistently I’m st...
  6. I was diagnosed celiac in 2015. I didn’t really have major digestive symptoms though I realized after going gluten free how much better I felt without it. My main symptoms were the tiredness and anxiety. Now 4 years on I am having digestive symptoms that are commonly linked with celiac..abdominal cramps, alternating constipation and loose stool, weight l...
  7. Hi guys! I've been struggling with my health for the past 5 years (I'm 24 now) so I'm just hoping I can get some advice from those in similar situations. Sorry if this explanation gets really long! Just trying to get this off my chest because I can't seem to find a doctor who's interested in anything but test results. I was diagnosed with celiac disease...
  8. Hi everyone, Apologies in advance if this is TMI! I was diagnosed 2 years ago with Celiac disease but I never really suffered with any significant digestive issues when eating gluten. Recently I have been having abdominal cramping for at least a few minutes every day in the area below my belly button. I've also noticed that I seem to have enlarged...
  9. Hi guys, I was diagnosed with Celiac disease in May but from when I started to notice differences in my health I think I really developed the condition in early 2012. One thing I have noticed during that time is that I suffer from acne (including cystic) and more severe rosacea than before. I am 23 now and never really suffered from acne in high school...
  10. wow thanks for your responses..I had no idea how strict this diet is! This might be a challenge for me as none of my family have celiac (that they know of!) and they see it as kind of a fad (the odd bit of gluten won't kill you kind of thing) but I will try my best!
  11. I'm waiting for my endoscopy but my blood test was positive so my doctor says it is almost guaranteed I am celiac. I'm just wondering how strict I need to be with my diet once celiac is confirmed. I don't have any severe digestive symptoms (just extreme fatigue from conditions like iron deficiency and hypothyroid as a result of celiac) so I feel like some...
