Okay...so I'm dizzy and fainting...sometimes I feel so energetic and then I take a plunge. God will this ever end? This constant balance and check. Oh...have I drank enough water today? What have I not eaten that can make me feel better? It's just hard sometimes yall!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!11

I get dizzy when I accidentally eat gluten.

I get dizzy when I get some gluten also. Hate it :angry: . Another thought--have you been tested for anemia? I used to be lightheaded a lot, even fainted at work once--my red blood cell count had dropped from 12 to 8.5 in 2 months. Even my doctor doubted that it would have changed so quickly.

I get dizzy and faintish (if that's a word!) when my blood sugar is low. Are you hypoglycemic? It's just a thought!

      I haven’t been diagnosed formally. My doctor always called it eczema but over the years I have figured out it isn’t.  I’ll do some research on iodine. Thanks for that info.

      I would not think abstaining from commercially processed food would have any effect on dermatitis herpetiformis. What can help with dermatitis herpetiformis is reducing iodine in your diet and, of course, you must completely abstain from gluten.  Many who suffer from dermatitis herpetiformis cannot find relief until they get on a med called Dapsone. It seems to be pretty effective but stresses the liver. So, anyone taking it must have their liver enzymes monitored regularly. By the way, celiac disease is the only know cause for dermatitis herpetiformis. Has your rash been officially diagnosed as dermatitis herpetiformis? It can be a challenge to find a dermatologist who knows how to properly biopsy dermatitis herpetiformis when seeking a diagnosis.

      I was eating gluten at the time it was done. I do not eat commercially processed food and we make it all from scratch so I wonder if that might cause an issue.

      When you had the blood draw done for the antibody testing, had you already been practicing a gluten free diet? If so, that would also sabotage the results of the tTG-IGA.

      The rash on my hands is the little blisters or  dermatitisherpetiformi you are referencing. They itch like crazy and no doctor has ever been able to get them to go away. When I remove gluten from my diet they go away. I decided to do the test for that reason. It’s really my only symptom but my sister has celiac disease and the same hand rash. her doctor recommended I get tested.
