  1. My rheumatologist wouldn’t run the celiac test or vitamin tests, says lupus is in remission, continue meds and diet if it helps, see gastroenterologist for concerns about celiac. Their website literally says they treat celiac! Had regular routine labs done. I don’t plan on visiting gastroenterologist at this time, I will wait and see what labs are. I ord...
  2. It’s been 25 days. I lost 10 lbs, I’m burning clean fuel now! My rash is definitely fading and my skin tone has improved, I was very pale. My anxiety is gone, and I feel stronger and happy. I have energy. Some flare ups here and there but better everyday. I am experiencing heat flashes at night. I think it’s the toxins trying to come out, tomorrow I’m gon...
  3. I feel that it doesn’t matter for me celiac or not, I’m convinced wheat is terrible! I am also sure that my grandmom suffered from this as well, and my aunt is going through it now during cancer recovery, she is done her treatments but her digestive system is a mess. She is going to get tested at her next visit. She is amazed by my recovery but she has it ...
  4. Hi everyone, I decided to try gluten free almost 2 weeks ago, and so far this has been life altering to say the least! At first the gastrointestinal problems calmed, then the pain let up, now my lifelong anxiety is completely gone and my rashes are disappearing! Everyday is bringing such drastic change, at first I thought I was imagining it, maybe placebo...
  5. This is so interesting to me, my blood work has always showed a high Dheas level, more than double the upper limit, and my endo always said it was normal, I was always nervous about it being high because google search says it’s made in the adrenal and that high could mean cancer. Well, I’ve been gluten-free for 12 days and my chronic pain is gone and so ...
  6. My arm rashes would tingle before they appeared, the neck one never really itched but it did look like it spread mildly to my back and that felt itchy sometimes, like dry skin itch.
  7. My rash around my chest looks like it’s fading, it kind of fluctuates but definitely looks better with each calm episode. It never looked blistered, maybe bumpy,, the ones on my arm were definitely bumpy. It mostly looked sunburnt with some pigmented spots. And I have areas of lipoatrophy on my back, always wondered what that was from. Only time will tell i...
  8. I had a hard time even convincing drs that it was a rash at all, one said my skin is thinner there and that’s why it’s red. it looks a lot like sunburn, no blisters or itchiness, just red with some tiny red dots and it stops right where my neck begins. There are some tiny hive-like bumps.
  9. Thanks for the helpful article links. I am feeling better everyday and will keep you posted on lab work and dr. visit in may.. anyone know how long the rashes take to fade? I have a red chest below my neck, looks like sunburn or allergic reaction been there for years, some days it looks like it’s fading then it flares up a little.
  10. Thanks for the advice guys, I see my rheumatoid in a few weeks but I don’t think I want to eat the gluten to find out, I am very happy just having relief finally! And excited to see what other symptoms get better as time goes on. I’m seriously doubting the lupus diagnosis now but it’s possible that I have both. I am expecting that my lab work will eventually becom...
  11. Hi everyone, I was diagnosed with Lupus tumidus after a skin biopsy and over a decade of various symptoms including chronic pain and skin rashes. I recently noticed I had too much gas and burning gi symptoms so I decided to try gluten free. First I went 3 days and noticed a felt 80% better..pain was minimized, no gas, no diarrhea, so I tried eating wheat...
