    Ursula, Thank you for replying. The more I hear from others, the more things becomes clear and confirmed. I still don't know 100% what I may be allergic or intolerant to except that I know the cracker are horrible for me to consume. If I get stuff on my skin after that, it must not be good for my body. Like you, I feel like a monster when I get those...

    If you know of my post below Crakers and Acne, you see that I get bad acne the next day from eating it. It's why I suspect I don't have DH because it does not itch. At one point, I had acne purging on the side of my face everyday, and it did itch a little--I suspected it was because of the pus infections of acne. Pus and infections can itch, which is why...

    What are the differences between allergy, intolerance, and sensitivity? Is there a website link you can recommend instead if you do not want to go over it here? Danna Korn suggested reading her book, which I thought I would get, but I am tight money-wise now since I am getting insurance. It seems as if food allergy tests may not be 100 percent accurate...

    I have been trying to be gluten-free for about 4 days to the best of my knowledge. If I wanted a blood test done, how long will I need to be eating gluten until the appointment? 2 weeks? Do you find that the first few days it goes from better to worse to better as if it seems hopeless or does it get better only since gluten-free?

    Thanks. I am going to start calling when my insurance kicks in in a few weeks or less.

    About how long does it take before I see if a gluten-free diet is helping? Is there a range?

    My derm takes 3 months to see. I'll see if I can contact a different dermatologist. How is a biopsy done? Does it hurt? Do you have to have skin bumps present in order to have a biopsy?

    Hi, thank you for the link. I will do what I can to test the gluten levels, etc. I am not sure where I would find a good dermatologist who will see acne as DH because they don't look like blisters. However, I am seeing a patter from a picture and someone here who says that she gets DH around her mouth like I do as well I see that it runs under my chin...

    Hi, there is a cracker that I didn't eat for a long time, and I ate them last week for two days straight with cream cheese and tuna. Both days, I woke up with ugly acne on my face. Like around 6 pus-filled. They do not look like blisters. It also appeared below my earlobe and between my ear and face. I almost never have acne there. I am having bumps...

    Thank you for the suggestions everyone! I bought gluten-free rice pasta from the grocery store (organic section), and it wasn't bad. I am not sure what brand it is. It wasn't bad, but I sure want to make sure I try Tinkyada and other yummy breads, bagels, etc.

    I am glad to help. If your best friend does not have regular bowel movements, it could cause acne and other health problems. People must have regular bowel movements either through high fiber foods or some natural form of fibers, etc. Make a salad mix of cantaloupe, strawberries, kiwi, pineapple, etc. and squeeze orange juice over it. Have it already cut...

    I went to Wild Oats to search their gluten-free breads in the freezer, but they are so tiny and weird with juice as flavors. Doesn't sound like something I wanted to buy. I like to eat tuna on a sandwich or bagel or a turkey/ham and cheese sandwhich. I like cream cheest and bagel. Where can I find real gluten-free bread? I'd love to make...

    Are yeast and corn starch gluten free if there is no other ingredients listed that is gluten?
  16. FairySprinkle
    Hello! Thank you for your post. That makes it much clearer . I decided to test myself by going gluten-free, and I am already seeing an improvement, and I will keep up the gluten-free diet and post an update not for myself, but to help others who may find relief in this. Even my mom notices. Only still hard to convince that gluten is what might be. I...

    That was funny about the corn on the cob. I just read that Quaker Oats isn't exaclty gluten-free, so I am like...maybe I can have a boiled eggs? Mixed fruits. Fruits heals my skin and glows. My acne is not that bad with oats as with other things though, so I'll figure it out--but I know something's not right with gluten or wheat, etc. Thanks to Heaven...

    Hi, thank you for explaining. I think I am going to go to a bookstore and see if I can find a book about gluten. If you recommend one, please let me know. I learned about DH yesterday, and I read the description plus viewed pictures, but it's nothing like that. Does not look like blisters. It looks like acne, but can grow bigger in diameter, always...

    Hello, I would really recommend that you try to go to a health food store and ask if there is a tea or homeopathy (they can work wonders if you find the right one), and see if they can help you find something for you. I feel bad because diahrrea reminds me of my grandmother (she died 6 months ago) who had a disease and was on treatments like chemo, and she...

    Hi, I am looking for a list myself also. I just printed out the link with the ingredients. I am not diagnosed, yet, but I want to follow a gluten-free diet. I think I have an intolerance to gluten, but not celiac disease. We have Cream of Wheat, and I used to eat Wheat Germ with Yogurt. Since wheat is mentioned as a gluten, does that mean that for someone...

    Hi, Thank you. Last night, I was ready to "throw out" (means I really put some away) gluten foods, and I woke up wanting to cook pancakes. Oh my, that stuff has gluten. I can understand it is likely not going to be as easy as I think. One thing, I feel so bad not eating the food my mother helps buy along with mine. I have a new bag of whole wheat bagel...

    No, I have never had an allergy test done. I did go for a physical a couple of months ago because I told my family doctor that I still get acne, and I had a blood test done. Everything was normal, and my doctor response was, "I mean, I had acne at your age and it went away, so I think you just have to put up with it until it goes away." He wanted me refer...

    Open Original Shared Link Look at this website. It sounds like me. I KNOW it comes from something in the food. The crackers contain barley malt and wheat. Horrible food. If you read the cases below, it is so familiar to me. My derm laughed when I mentioned acne as a reaction to allergy. I am not sure what this website is all about, but is the ELISA...

    Hi. I checked and even saw pictures of DH, but it doesn't relate to my acne because they absolutely do not look like blisters or crusty. They are inflammatory bumps with a pus-filled head like a pimple, but bigger in diameter, so it doesn't look anything like blisters, and it's not normal acne. My face can look dull when I don't eat proper, by proper I...

    Hi, thank you for your responses, and I am glad I helped nederlandse. I don't know why I second-guess, but today I saw a brochure for Celiac in a place that has nothing to do with Celiac. I am not completely familiar with all of the ingredients that means gluten, but I know of a few. I went through the cabinets and got some of them out. I put it in...
