Hi everybody, I've been gluten free for 2 years and about a month ago just started the Specific Carbohydrate Diet. For about 5 years, I've had dry flaky skin on my face and if I do not use moisturizer, I get bad rashes under my nose and around my chin. I was wondering if anybody had any experiences like this and had a solution. Doctors prescribe creams but it just comes back. I also have had small intestinal bacterial overgrowth for some time now and suspect I possibly have candida overgrowth and my doctor thinks I have dehydration. Could these problems be contributing to my flaky skin? All responses are truly appreciated.

Kevin

      Did I outgrow celiac

      Keep in mind that you might also have a dietary sensitivity to something else. Get into the habit of reading ingredients lists.

      I would avoid gluten at all cost. Sometimes there will be no noticeable damage, but it is still causing an autoimmune response that will manifest in some way or another eventually. Throwing up from a macaroon sounds like something other than celiac disease also.

      Thanks, Scott! I appreciate you looking that up for me. Perhaps that will be good enough for someone but not for me...super sensitive dermatitis herpetiformis here. I don't take any chances that I can avoid. ~Pam

      Welcome to the forum, Liamclarke! We have reports from time to time of people whose celiac disease seems to go into remission. Often, however, it doesn't last. There is also the question of whether or not symptoms or lack of them tell the whole story. Many of us are "silent" celiacs who have very minor or no symptoms when consuming gluten yet slow, insidious damage is still going on in the gut. The only way to tell for sure in your case would be to be retested after going back on gluten for a period of weeks or months such that sufficient time has elapsed for antibody levels in the blood to build up to detectable levels. And I would certainly advise you to do that and not take anything for granted.

      Not sure if this is Celiac or just a gluten-free intolerance

      I was diagnosed with celiac and basically had stunted growth because my body wasn’t taking In nutrients which may explain the weight loss I would take this seriously and get tested
