Hashimoto's disease results in hypothyroidism. Hashimoto's is an autoimmune disorder where the cells of the thyroid are attacked by the immune system, leading to death of the cells and diminished production of thyroid hormone.
so if my thyroid is high then i have Hashimoto's? Just found out I have high thyroid and started taking levothyroxne.

I realize this is an older thread, but I'm new and just browsing some of the posts. The rash people were describing sounds familiar. I don't have it, but my mother ...who is deceased, but who in hindsight I suspect had celiac disease as well.....had horrible rashes on her hands and elbows. My daughter has had a similar thing on her hands and legs periodically. One thing that helped both of them was a concoction I mixed up:
2 - 4 oz olive oil [or any good quality carrier oil ie almond (if you don't have nut allergies)]
10 drops patchouli oil
10 drops lavender oil
Probably a good idea to do a patch test before using it on rash. For a really bad rash, I'd just use the lavender in oil. Lavender is one of the few essential oils that can be used neat on wounds.
My mom used it on her hands at night, and wore cotton gloves over. Its quite oily, but worked a treat. I used it as a facial skin cream for ages, especially in winter. Now that I'm having to avoid gluten, I'm going to start using it again.
One note of caution-- if you use it on your feet, wear socks!! It can have you doing unintended pirouttes on hardwood floors. Ermmm, don't ask how I know

Sophie, I just got the cluster of blisters on my left hand. It is not oozing. Do you still get yours? I haven't had these in ages. Thanks, LL

I used to use Lawrys Season Salt on EVERYTHING.. It made my daughter sick.
I now use Mrs. Dash (love that stuff), McCormicks Garlic Powder, Salt and Pepper. I also have tried Gluten Free Pantrys Taco Seasoning and it was fine.
All the Mrs. Dash ok? LLee

Lowrys season salt is NOT gluten-free when I was little it made me sooo sick, we use mayacamas seasoning salt
