A few months ago I started a gluten free diet, since nothing else was helping what I thought was psoriasis on my scalp. I looked up dermatitis herpetiformis on medical websites and saw descriptions of painful blisters. I had itchy, sometimes painful scabs several places. I guess I only noticed anything was wrong after I'd scratched myself enough to end up with scabs! I'm sure I have celiacs (based on a whole range of changes since going gluten free) but seeing other people describe DH as itchy scabs, not blisters!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2396932471739700718.post-19304539228470020552012-10-27T19:47:00.650-04:002012-10-27T19:47:00.650-04:00Thank you so much for posting this photo on your b...Thank you so much for posting this photo on your blog. I found it through a google search and now plan to have a blood test ordered for my daughter. She's had 'skin crud' for weeks and it sure looks like many photos connected to secondary Celiac symptoms. Yikes! Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
