I know no one mentions the bowel symptoms, but at the end of the day its the rash that drives us all insane!
Keep to the GF diet and at least the bowel problems will improve, if not also the rash...

So it's official. I do have dh and I am awaiting rx confence results. My GI guy ,as he said, is excited about this because we may finally have a dx. I,to feel happy to know that maybe I have a conclusive dx and possibly a plan for tx. God knows, I can't continue feeling like this, between the diarrhea,which no one mentions and the incredably itchy rash, which is so everyone on me, I need just a little relief.
I'm glad you've got a diagnosis. Many of us don't experience the diarrhoea as the coeliac disease is often mild in DH sufferers, which is possibly why it's not mentioned much in this forum.
Have you asked for dapsone of sulfapyridine to ease the rash in the short term?

Sorry, I meant dapsone OR sulfapyridine, not OF. I'm getting like Rob (tee,hee)
