Does Anyone Else Have These Symptoms?

I have had every digit on my hands spontaneously burst a blood vessel. It feels like a bee sting, then my finger swells up and turns a lovely shade of blue. I just thought it was my non functional body (I think I was put together with faulty parts lol) just doing it's regular unexplainable weirdness. But yesterday at a Eat Icecream For Breakfast party (whoa is me I ate an apple instead) I met a woman with celiac who told me that was one of her symptoms (I hadn't told her at this point that I was having this problem). Anyone else have this happen?

I've heard a number of you talk about itching. I thought I was having allergy problems and have been taking antihistimines but after reading about others itching stopped taking them and my itching is starting to lessen now that I'm off gluten completely. I don't get a rash, although I do occasionally get this little bumps on the back of my knees and the inside of my elbow that get extremely itch. Otherwise there is nothing visible just extreme itching. (when I went off wheat years ago before I suspected celiac I was amazed and delighted to have my eczema go away - I had been suffering with it all my life and the doctors couldn't find a cause for it).

Any other weird body stuff happening out there in cyberspace?

The blue hands thing reminds me of something called Raynaud's Phenomenon, but it has been found that supplements can resolve it. I've read magnesium, zinc, vitamin E, niacin, and a few other things can work wonders. Perhaps the links below will be of help to you.

The rash sounds like Open Original Shared Link. That forum should help you with that.

      It's possible, as there are other things that may cause elevated tTg-IgA levels, but in general a reaction to gluten is the culprit:    Also, 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.

      Perhaps you could bring you own? Not sure, but worth a try.

      I received my ANA test results - negative.  I'm thinking it was infection, was put on antibiotics for suspected sibo at the time blood test was taken. Significant improvements from taking them even while eating gluten.

      Thanks again. I've actually convinced my local butcher shop to start carrying Ghostfish gluten-free beer. It's not bad! But you won't often find it at a ski lodge.

      Villi damage is caused by celiac disease, which does not happen in NCGS, although some people with NCGS do have elevated antibody levels. Some people with NCGS who have the genes for celiac disease may end up developing celiac disease, so in some people NCGS may be a precursor to celiac disease, but more research needs to be done on NCGS. Both low iron and vitamin D are common symptoms of celiac disease. Also, regarding beer:
