First Biopsy

Well I had my first "2" biopsies yesterday.   The doctor said that is might still be too soon after the prednisone, but I was there anyway and he saw a good one. He took one next to a bump, and another one on a bump. I go back next week to have the sutures removed and he said we should have the results by then.  He also said that there is a good chance that we will have to "redo" in a few more weeks. I sure am hoping for some answers!!

I hope you get answers too but I'm really glad to hear he's willing to redo in a few more weeks. It sure sounds like you got extremely lucky with a dermatologist who actually knows what the heck he's doing when it comes to dh.

      Thank you both. I haven't had access to the test results but will get them and post here.

      The ulcers are prepyloric ulcers. Not sure if that makes any difference.

      Duodenal ulcers are not uncommon either and often result from H.Pylori infections. https://www.healthdirect.gov.au/duodenal-ulcer

      I had what was termed "lesions," and normally ulcers are in the stomach, rather than the small intestines. I'm not sure why they would want you to have her continue to eat gluten, since she had a positive blood test, but as her doctor said, if she is uncomfortable and having symptoms why not have her go gluten-free at this point? If her symptoms improve, it would be another indicator that she has celiac disease and/or gluten sensitivity. This article has some detailed information on how to be 100% gluten-free, so it may be helpful (be sure to also read the comments section.):
