Why Am I Getting Hives?

I've now gotten itchy hives 2 nights in a row. Last night my husband made salmon patties using my gluten free bread for the crumbs. He did use regular crumbs for his. I'm wondering if CC could cause this. Could I be allergic to salmon now? Tonight we had a roast, I made the potatoes and gravy in my own pans and used brown rice flour to make the gravy. It's been a long time since I've had hives. I do know once I get out of whack, I do seem more sensitive to anything. I'm also wondering if candida can cause hives? I'm just trying to figure it out, so I can avoid the culprit.

Absolutely yes....candida can cause hives. I know that first hand. I think that when I was at my sickest, the candida really took over. Now here I am 10 months later still battling that nasty bugger...its putting up a good fight, but i insist that I will win <_<

My best guess is that the salmon had iodine in it, which triggered possible DH. As you know, salmon can be caught in the sea and in fresh water, so sometimes you can have no reaction while, at others, you can break out.

I agree about the iodine. I had to give up iodized salt, as well as ibuprofen, because I break out with DH everytime! What I don't know is if there is a tolerance level.....if some iodine is ok up to a certain point....or if any exposure at all is a trigger. Any thoughts on that?

      Waiting on Blood test results…

      By ChrisSeth · Posted

      Okay thanks Scott. So based on my results will they order more tests to be done? Kind of confused.

      Waiting on Blood test results…

      Hi thanks for your response! This is the only other info that’s on my test results for the IgA. The initial testing performed in the Celiac Disease Reflex Panel is the total IgA. If the total IgA is <10 mg/dL, the reflex tests that will be ordered are the Tissue Transglutaminase IgG Antibody and the Deamidated Gliadin Peptide IgG Antibody. If the total IgA is >=10 mg/dL, the reflex test that will be ordered is the Tissue Transglutaminase IgA Antibody. Does that give some insight?  following up with my Dr early next week… thanks again.  And I didn’t eat more gluten than usual during the last 6-8 weeks on purpose. Just a normal diet prior to testing. I had gluten everyday for 6-8 weeks though I’m sure.

      Have you tried sheep's milk and goat's milk cheeses? After my diagnosis I could not tolerate cow's milk for ~2 years until my villi healed, but for some reason I did not have issues with sheep milk or goat milk cheeses.  I also had temporary issues with chicken eggs, but could eat duck eggs.

      This is not a test for celiac disease, but your total IgA levels. This test is usually done with other celiac disease blood tests to make sure the results are accurate. Did they do a tTg-IgA test as well? Were you eating lots of gluten in the 6-8 weeks leading up to your blood tests? This article might be helpful. It breaks down each type of test, and what a positive results means in terms of the probability that you might have celiac disease. One test that always needs to be done is the IgA Levels/Deficiency Test (often called "Total IGA") because some people are naturally IGA deficient, and if this is the case, then certain blood tests for celiac disease might be false-negative, and other types of tests need to be done to make an accurate diagnosis. The article includes the "Mayo Clinic Protocol," which is the best overall protocol for results to be ~98% accurate.
