Eczema can be and frequently is confused with DH. I do think that there may be some connection between the two though, I've noticed that several people on this board have eczema as well as DH. (I have dishidrotic eczema on my fingers)

Family doctors kept treating me for eczema but none of the treatments worked! So, I figured I'd try a dermatologist. Luckly, I got one who had actually written articles on DH. Two minutes of checking me out he says "I'm 95% sure of your problem but let's get a biopsi and confirm it." It was confirmed. A lot of doctors don't know much about DH or celiac disease. Even so, they tend to treat it as the "easiest" first before going further.

I don't have eczema at all - only DH!

      How are you doing, @sadiec123?  Did you get through the holidays alright?    Have you been checked for nutritional deficiencies?  Many newly diagnosed Celiacs  are low in Vitamin D and many of the B vitamins like thiamine.  Thiamin insufficiency can cause weight loss and loss of appetite (anorexia) as well as affect mood.   Benfotiamine has been shown to promote intestinal healing and improve mood.

      I agree, @Sarah Marie, it's best to keep eating gluten and get on the doctor's cancellation list.  Some people have extreme symptoms when reintroducing gluten after a brief abstinence.  Be sure she consumes six slices of bread or gluten-y equivalent a day in the two weeks prior to the endoscopy.  There are different amounts of gluten in different products.  Chewy pizza crust and artisan breads have more gluten than cookies and cakes. Keep us posted on your progress!

      Those are links to articles on this site.  I don't do Instagram either. https://www.celiac.com/celiac-disease/cross-reactivity-between-anti-gliadin-antibodies-and-proteins-in-spices-may-trigger-symptoms-in-some-people-with-celiac-disease-r5900/ And  https://www.celiac.com/celiac-disease/beyond-gluten-exploring-lesser-known-triggers-and-cross-reactivities-for-celiac-patients-r6350/

      Wow! That's really good information. I have noticed that my Celiac symptoms are ever increasingly seeming like allergy symptoms as well. Stuffed up head, horse throat post navel drip symptoms. I'm afraid I'm not sure I understand how to follow the links you sent for the expanded version of non-histamine diet? Are those Instagram addresses? Because I don't do Instagram. Thank you so much for that reply. To my knowledge, I'm okay on all of those things. Although I don't think that I've been tested for zinc. I do know when the flu's going around I try taking zinc mixed with quercetin but that seems to put my autoimmune into overdrive. As does some of these over-the-counter things which are recommended for traveling. To boost the immune to prevent sickness. Also things like echinacea and elderberry which you would think would be innocuous

      Canker sores can be more frequent if deficient in zinc, Thiamin B1, Riboflavin B2, Pyridoxine B6, Cobalamine B12, Folate B9, iron and Vitamin D.   Following a low histamine paleo diet helps heal.  Mast cells in our body make histamine and release it as a part of the inflammation process.  Foods that contain high histamine levels can make inflammation worse.  Mast cells get "itchy triggers" and can release histamine when exposed to some spices and foods.  The vitamins listed above are also required to clear histamine along with Vitamin C.  Following a low histamine diet like @Mari and @Blue Roanand keeping a food journal like @Blue Roan does are excellent ways to travel on our Celiac journey.
