Confused About Gluten Related Rash


gluten Tag

Recommended Posts

Hi everyone! This is my first post. :rolleyes:

I just recently went gluten-free and cannot believe the difference in how I feel. Seriously, I haven't felt well for like...20 years.

Problem: For about two years I have had this persistent and itchy rash. I don't know if it's DH or not though as it only occurs on my upper arms, back, and under my chin and near my ears. It is SO itchy! It starts like a water blister and then erupts about a day or two later at which point it's painful.

I wasn't sure if the rash was related to gluten but it has improved since going gluten-free. I got glutened on Tgiving and it has returned with a vengence. I don't get a ton of it but what I do get is itchy itchy and painful.

Thoughts? <_<

That's exactly what I get with gluten. It tooks weeks to clear up but once it did I don't get it now unless I have an ongoing secret gluten spy. I have to eat that product repeatedly to have the rash come out. If I see that rash, I need to start investigating where it came from, 'cause it's something I'm ingesting every day. This spring I had it from the coffee syrups I used, from the caramel coloring. They shouldn't have bothered me but the rash doesn't lie! Stopped the syrup, no more rash.

So say good bye to itch and bumps, eventually, and congrats on feeling 20 years younger!

Thanks so much for your reply. I hope it goes away...kinda miserable. ;)

      I had 2 blood tests at the same time. One negative, one positive.  No insurance coverage for endoscopy but felt MUCH MUCH better after three days gluten-free and many hair, skin, and rash issues cleared or improved in a week. It seems there are lots of false negatives in Celiac blood tests.

      Check out Sally K. Norton’s work on oxalates. She wrote a book called Toxic Superfoods. Your symptoms are similar to some of mine. Many of us with celiac disease have oxalate toxicity because of the damage to our guts. Oxalates chelates our minerals and calcium binds to oxalates. At least check out her website, it may help a lot. Good luck.

      The study you posted was done by the USDA. Not much more needs to be said about that. It only tested for one type of parasite. There are many types of parasites that are typically only found in meat. I have tried all different kinds of dairy - whole, nonfat, skim, etc. I cannot eat any dairy, no matter what kind. I have wondered about iodine. Some people claim it makes them break out more, especially with celiac. I have been toying with my diet for decades now. I am 46 years old, and have known about celiac since my early twenties. I will keep you guys posted about the Skinesa. Usually after about a week I start breaking out on probiotics. It's been 3 days so far and everything's good. I'm on Dapsone also. I appreciate all the feedback.

      My blood tests didn’t show I had Celiac’s but the endoscopy did. The test is easy and you feel nothing after, it’s basically like taking a nap. The worst part is getting the IV, which is pretty easy and basic, hopefully this helps!

      Hello! I'm doing a gluten challenge now. I don't know how much bread to eat. There are 4-6 slices of bread a day suggested in most articles. But one slice of bread can be 25 grams or 40 grams. So when it's 25, six slices are just 150 grams. When it's 40 grams, six slices are 240 grams. The difference is huge in my opinion. Can someone recommend the dosage?
