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!
