Injured Area Where Have Dh?

I was glutened like weeks ago, I got my area where i have my rash to heal up. no more blisters...etc. There area was still discolored though

Well then two weeks ago, I cut my finger where I get the DH/rash...and it was like it caused me to break out a very small amount, I got maybe 10 blisters....since then now the cut and the skin just doesn't want to heal. Normally from a bigger outbreak it takes me 4-5 weeks to heal, but this was very small, the blisters didn't entirely go through their cycle like normal...now I am just left with broken discolored skin.

I think fingers must be one of the worst spots to heal.

I got a spot after the flu. It goes down, then if I wash dishes or do alot of food chopping it flares back up..each time getting more and more dh'ish.

Try wearing rubber dish gloves and those food service gloves while cooking. Also, I out a band-aid on it and that helps, with a moisturizer.

I'm back at that stage where it's peeling and dry. Ugh. Mine has cracked and burned and just looked awful.

Washing my hands definitly does not help or doing dishes. I should try wearing gloves! I put lotion on afterwards and that helps a little, keeps it from drying out so much that it cracks open more.

That is pretty much much what mine looks like "cracked and burned and just awful!" lol....

      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.

      Test results came back for everything that was tested now. Cholesterol is off the charts high. Not sure if that’s related to celiac, I have no idea how it could be so high. Also tested positive for H pylori  infection… is there a link to celiac and H pylori? Or am I just experiencing symptoms of the H pylori infection?

      I’m reading that some sites list a high Immunoglobulin A result for my age above 300, another site says above 356, and other sites are saying above 400. I don’t know what to make of this result 🤷‍♂️
