Hi all! Does anyone else have intense skin itching WITHOUT a rash?? I itch like crazy for about an hour or so just about every day. I have no rash or anything, just itching that drives me mental!!

I get it in my scalp, constantly throughout the day.

There is no psoriasis or anything. Just itchiness. Drives me nut too!

I use Pantene shampoo and conditioner which I know is gluten-free, so that can't be it.

Just another thing I have to "grin and bear" in the Celiac world....

I get it on my legs no rash or anything. (right now I have chronic hives) It has been happening for years.

:( yup--my sister and i have had that intense itching, especially after showering--no rash, just terrible itching, especially on our legs--i have been gluten free for 3 yrs now and the itch is gone--it did help us immensely when we bought water softeners, but it was still there----so, yes--it happens to many of us--deb ;)

I always itch and used to attibute it to dry skin, now I think it has more to do with celiac disease. My back is the worst!

I switched to baby shampoo or Nutrigina for my shampoo because my head itches and that seems to help a little.

My daughter itched a lot with no visible rash. Since gluten-free she has been better, only itching occasionally.

I have bad itch when I have a gluten accident. My skin gets dry and flaky, and just iiitttccchhheeesss!!! I use coco butter lotion, but the only thing that really helps is staying gluten free.

      Hunger, nervous stomach or Hpylori?

      By trents · Posted

      Welcome to the forum, @Connie Smitj! Can you give us a little more history about your celiac journey? How long ago were you diagnosed and how long have your been gluten free? Do you have other symptoms besides quick onset of hunger after eating and gut pain? How long have these symptoms being happening?

      Hunger, nervous stomach or Hpylori?

      By Connie Smitj · Posted

      I eat a gluten-free diet but hunger pains start within an hour of eating dinner. I  had h pylori infection before I was diagnosed. Occasionally I’ll have bouts of pain. Could it come back or is it just celiac disease?

      Help Understanding Test Results

      By trents · Posted

      Scott, am I missing something? For the TTG-IGA normal is anything 3 or less and his score less than 2. I think that one is in normal range. @Brown42186, if the GI doc is not interested in doing an endoscopy with biopsy of the small bowel lining based on the elevated TTG-IGG I would request a repeat on the bloodwork now that you have resumed gluten consumption again.

      Interesting for sure. Have you heard of potential cross reactivity to casein (dairy), corn, milket, iats, rice, and yeast?

      Thanks for all the info! I'll see how my appointment next week goes. I think I'm going to push for having a blood test done again since I've been consistently eating gluten and go from there.
