<<Disclaimer: Verify this information before applying it to your situation.>> Hi. I was recently diagnosed with DH. I have responded well to Dapsone (once the dose was adjusted and I got over a bit of anemia from the initial dose). I am going to get a small bowel biopsy in a few weeks. I would just like to get in touch with/hear from a few other folks who have DH. I've read what I could find on the net about DH, but don't really know what to expect from this illness based on the info I've come across. Do most DH sufferers have a positive biopsy? Does the GF diet help? Do you have to stay on Dapsone for a long time, even if you go GF? Please respond to [log in to unmask] and I will summarize responses (anonymity guaranteed!) to the list if there is interest. Thanks! Chris(tine) Silker
