hi thats really interesting. i wouldnt say my skin was yellow ,just a slight light tan. its odd coz sometimes i think it looks darker, then others times lighter. i was thinking that its my eyes and im not focusing properly. ive got an appointment next week though so i should get some answers.i think my triggers are tomato,s and chocolate. both things i shouldnt...

hi thanks for answering. do you know what foods triggered your rash? are certain foods a trigger or is it different foods for different people? i think tomato,s and chocolate affect me especially my eyes - they go really bloodshot. im not happy about taking medication because i was thinking of trying an elimination diet an im not sure if it will affect...

well update on my derm appointment, face rash is rosacea, palm rash is pompholyx eczema, weird knuckle growth is benign knuckle pads-nothing you can do about it. the "tan" thing he,s going to check again when i go back in 8 weeks and when i asked if the rosacea can affect your eyes ( coz ive got an appointment next week)he basically said no. so why...

hi looked at symptoms , id say 80% were right but its the skin colouration im not sure about. it says you get patches of darkened skin and its most noticable in the creases - like on your palms, knuckles,knees. theres nothing like that at all. anyway ive got my fingers crossed for friday

got derm appointment on fri so hopefully i,ll get some answers about it then. not sure about the addisons didnt quite add up.

this is a really interesting thread for me. ive been having trouble with my eyes for over 4 years now. it started with what i thought was recurrent conjunctivitis. then one day my eyes were completely dark red and i went to the walk in center . the doc there sent me straight to the eye hospital. went there 4 or 5 times and they didnt really know what...

thanks everyone, this is something ive noticed for a while,sometimes it looks more tanned than others and because ive had a bit of trouble with my eyes (not yellow by the way) i kinda thought it was the lighting or i was imagining it. i,ll check out all the ideas thanks. i have mentioned it to the doc and they did ring me this morning to do another...

hi this has been happening for quite a while now,but sometimes im not sure and i think im just imagining it. so some background- i absolutely hate the sun, if its sunny im usually in the house. i would never willingly go out in it unless absolutely necessary. the sun feels like its burning my skin and hurts my eyes.it makes me feel physically sick...

hi from what i gathered pre diabetic means im definately on the way to being diagnosed with diabetes. my mum already has it. all my tests have been negative. so no celiac although i know i have a problem with it. my mum on the other hand has all the auto immune diseases associated with celiac and is being sent for a camera down the throat by the doc...

look up palmoplantar pustular psoriasis. i think i have this on my palms. its not as bad as some of the pictures show and i dont have it on my feet. ive had it for 16 years and im still undiagnosed!!!! got a dermatology appointment - at last- next week. mine doesnt itch, its just unsightly ,annoying and painfull when it flares up and the skin flakes and...

hi everyone this is interesting because i was just gonna start a thread on diabetes. after all the negatives ive received, i just found out ive got to go see the nurse at docs because im pre diabetic. i didnt realise there was a connection to celiac. not even sure what pre diabetic means . ( mum has been diagnosed with it though) guess thats another...

hi bartful great minds think alike i forgot about the newbie 101 thread - think i might have another read of it. it can only help.

hi there, try not to worry too much, a lot of people go through a withdrawal period when they first give up gluten. this could be the cause of your pain. the other explanation could be contamination. sometimes people react to tiny amounts of gluten more severely once they have cut it out. recheck all the foods that you are eating- make sure they are...

thanks for your reply my employer is absolutely not understanding. i go in for the results of the disciplinary on friday. i do have the union to help and ive got an appointment with the doc,s. i was thinking of asking her if she could write a letter explaining whats going on. not sure if it would help though

hi, didnt know where to put this thread- so hope its in the right one!. im having big problems at work. disciplinary,s because im not " performing" the thing is out of all the testing ive had done everything has been negative. not celiac, no allergies, no lupus. im at the end of my tether , what can i say to that?. ive got no comeback as to why...
