<<Disclaimer: Verify this information before applying it to your situation.>> My granddaughter was recently diagnosed with gluten sensitivity, and it appears that she may also have dermatitis herpetiformis. She also has an extreme sensitivity to metals to the point that she is breaking out in a rash around her tummy where her bluejeans snap to the point of cracking and bleeding. My daughter is trying to find alternative clothing for her. Her ears also break out when wearing pierced earrings. Does the metal sensitivity accompany DH, or is it just a matter of the overall sensitivities that we tend to have? (Her mom and I are both gluten sensitive with a number of allergies.) If you can point me to any articles, research, etc., regarding metal sensitivity with CD, I'd appreciate it so much! Sandra
