Is This Considered An Allergy?

I most likely have DH. I go the the derm next month, and hopefully they will do a biopsy at that time since it takes 3 months to get in there! But after reading another post on here, I put some iodine on a bandaid and put it on my arm. It was itchy almost immediatly, but I left it on for almost 24 hrs. I took it off 2 days ago, and I can still see exactly where the iodine was. It is all red and bumpy, and the rash is shaped like a perfect rectangle from the pad on the bandaid! :) It has gotten worse since I took it off. So, my question is, should I consider this a true allergy to iodine? I don't know if I should worry about it enough to let medical workers know so they don't do procedures that involve iodine. I don't have a bad anaphalactic reaction, so I don't know if it is that serious. What do you guys think??

      Don’t understand lab results..Help please

      By trents · Posted

      If gluten is the problem or the only problem I should say, your stools should have normalized by now. But many in the gluten intolerant/gluten sensitive population are also dairy intolerant. Try eliminating dairy from your diet and see if the issues improve.

      Thank you for your feedback.  I was not eating gluten free at time the lab was taken.  Have been gluten free now for a week. How long might it take for symptoms to go away. Only issue I have is loose stool. thanks again,,

      Approximately 10x more people have non-celiac gluten sensitivity than have celiac disease, but there isn’t yet a test for NCGS. If your symptoms go away on a gluten-free diet it would likely signal NCGS.

      Seeking Advice about Fecal Transplant to Treat Celiac Disease

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Since you keep linking to the same site that has a focus on the microbiome, it's clear that you have a strong focus on the topic, but here it usually comes up in relation to untreated celiac disease, thus I've shared the research summaries that we've done over the years on how the two are related. Like many disorders, including celiac disease, it's clear that more research needs to be done to fully understand both SIBO and celiac disease.
