Acne After Going Gluten Free?

It is an unusual question - as most of the discussions  I have read are around "acne" clearing up once you go gluten free. 

 

 

I was diagnosed with Celiac in July, and since then I have been gluten free. Major change in my diet includes having Sorghum/Millet regularly along with rice instead of wheat. Since the change, i have started having these acne - which i had never had before in my 30 years! My skin feels oily (which was dry before) and these red acne pop up across my face, shoulders, back 

Has anyone else faced this? Any reason why going gluten free (and Lactose free) are leading to these?

Maybe it's a reaction to something new you are eating?

Kareng, that is what I am trying to figure out, but dont have an answer. I started eating lots of nuts, which i thought were causing this. And now for the past 2 weeks, i havent had any. But these acne are coming even faster. Like I mentioned before, another major change is eating Sorghum and Millet flour - can they cause acne? Has anyone else faced a similar issue?

I developed back acne in the past couple of years since going gluten-free BUT I started thyroid treatment at the same time so I'm guessing it is related to that and not to being gluten-free.

      endomys is, aka, "EMA" and is a celiac disease antibody test. It was negative. gliaiga is, aka, IGP-IGA, is also a celiac disease antibody test. It was negative. TRANSGLUA is, aka, TTG-IGA, another celiac disease antibody test. It was in normal range. tranigg is, aka, TTG-IGG, still another celiac disease antibody test. It was high, or above...

      Question

      I'm 70, had gut issues my whole life. 15 years ago my grandchild was diagnosed with celiac. Since I had a constant either constipation or diarrhea and what the doctors thought was fibromyalgia and other issues I decided to see what happens if I quit gluten. I got a lot better. BTW, 30 years ago I had head & neck cancer, the radiation destroyed my...

      FDA says that most drugs are gluten-free???

      I had been glutened from somewhere since I pretty much make all my food from scratch. I had to have an endoscopy which should gluten damage, had blood work which also indicated high gluten. 4 years ago when I had these tests my gluten levels were all in good alignment. It comes down to my levothyroxin accord brand that must have gluten in it. I switched to...

      NCGS Diagnosis

      That somes it up. It is worth mentioning GliadinX does not reduce symptoms for me at all. I also react to banana, avacado, cabbage, Oatmeal, and pecans among other things. If anyone else out there is like me, I had to eliminate gluten and all processed food before I could start to heal. I wish I had know this a long time ago. Thanks for the acknowledgement...

      3 year old gluten intolerance?

      Thanks for sharing this detailed explanation. It’s really helpful to understand the differences between celiac disease and gluten sensitivity. I had no idea that gluten withdrawal could feel similar to addiction, and it’s great to have that context when considering how it affects people. It’s also good to know how important it is to continue eating glute...

It was high, or above normal range. immaqnt is, I believe, what is also known as "total IGA" and at 160, looks to be in normal range since it wasn't flagged otherwise. This is a test for IGA deficiency. If someone is IGA deficient then all other IGA test scores cannot be trusted as being accurate. You are not IGA deficient. Here is a primer explaining the various tests that can be used to...

It’s also good to know how important it is to continue eating gluten for accurate testing. I’ll keep all of this in mind!
