Is this DH?

New to this forum. Hi guys! So for the last few weeks I've been battling this insanely itchy rash. First started on my elbows, cleared up after 10 days ish with a steroid cream. Then broke out on my knees, ankles and now it's moved on to my thighs. Does it look like DH to you? I've mentioned dapsone to my dermatologist and she's looking into it. 

I've stopped eating gluten completely in the last month and I'm feeling better. My GI symptoms have improved. I'm more regular (was chronically constipated despite a healthy diet). And if I eat anything gluten I instantly have what it feels like the worst hangover in the world. Severe migraine and nausea. It's awful. Starting about 6 months prior I had to give up alcohol completely. Even just one glass or white wine or one beer (with plenty of water) would do the same thing. Feels like I had 12 shots of tequila. It sucks!

I'd love to know everyone's opinions.

Hi! Thank you very much! The three dots only give two options: Report and share. I'm using this on my mobile device. Could that be why?

No option for "Edit", huh? Could be that you are using your phone, I don't know for sure.

No edit option unfortunately. Even in the app, or in the desktop site. Is it because I have a new account?

Not sure. PM Scott Adams and ask that question. On many forums I have joined I did not have full privileges right away. But, there could be an issue with the software as it was recently updated. When you open up a new post window do you see a paperclip at the bottom with instructions about choosing files to attach or dragging them?

No I didn't see anything like that at all.

Scroll up to the top of the page and locate the envelope symbol. That will allow you to send a persona message to Scott Adams, our administrator, and ask him about the issues you are experiencing. Do you have a computer you could use to check for more options on the user interface?

The edit feature is only available for a short time period after a post, and this is due to the many spammers who might post something, then change it after by adding link spam.

      Gluten Free Beer - The Enzymatic Hydrolyzation Process Problem

      By trents · Posted

      Scott, I know full well that celiac disease is an autoimmune disorder and gluten sensitivity is not. And I agree that there is inconsistency in the use of the terms. But my contention is that "gluten intolerance" should not be used of NCGS since "gluten sensitivity" is actually found in the gluten disorder known as Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity and, therefore, "gluten intolerance" should be reserved as a common/nonmedical equivalent for celiac disease. It also seems to me that "intolerance" implies something more severe than does "sensitive". And it just seems to me that, though there is still a lot of inconsistency in the use of these terms, there is a movement toward using "gluten intolerant" to refer to celiac disease rather than NCGS. But that is just my opinion and perhaps, to be honest, a bit of a personal crusade. Actually, we would all be better off if we quit using the those informal terms "intolerance" and "sensitivity" and just speak of celiac disease and NCGS.

      Gluten Free Beer - The Enzymatic Hydrolyzation Process Problem

      Wow. I mean, I REALLY don't want to give up beer, but I NEVER cheat. I get caught (glutenized in my vernacular), but I never cheat. I didn't even know that was a thing...

      I wonder why they put dextrose in it?

      Gluten Free Beer - The Enzymatic Hydrolyzation Process Problem

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      PS - Many new celiacs report that they can go gluten-free, with the exception of giving up beer. That seems to be a bridge too far from many celiacs, and may be why nearly 20% cheat on their diets:

      Gluten Free Beer - The Enzymatic Hydrolyzation Process Problem

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      For those with celiac disease we know that there is a huge range in sensitivity, for example we've had many members here who report that even smelling wheat bread cooking in a bakery, for example a bakery in a supermarket, triggers an immediate gluten reaction that can last days or longer. Is there science to back this up--not that I've seen. Does this mean that it can't happen? Since it does seem to happen to some people, I can't say that there isn't something real happening to these folks.  Similarly there seems to be celiacs who can drink even regular beers, many of which have detectable gluten at under 20ppm, without issues, and many drink gluten reduced beers made from barley on a daily basis without issues, and without elevated antibodies or damaged villi. I also know that some celiacs report getting very sick from a single sip of gluten reduced beer. To be on the safe side it's probably best to stick with a naturally gluten-free beer, however, many of them lack the real beer taste, thus, some celiacs cheat on their diets and just drink regular beer. In this case I think having a choice is important, and drinking a gluten reduced option would be better than regular beer.
