<<Disclaimer: Verify this information before applying it to your situation.>> I was diagnosed with DH about 6 years ago through a biopsy, and have tried treating it with a GF diet twice. The first time around, the rash went away completely after two months... but I went overseas for work for a couple years and broke the diet completely. More recently, I was GF for a year and was able to significantly reduce my Dapsone dosage, although not eliminate it completely. I gave up the diet a few weeks ago in frustration. The rash on my face and shoulders, although relatively mild, is continuous, and it's impossible for me to tell what "triggered" it. I wonder if the on-again and off-again routine may hinder the diet's effectivness? Also, while I know that drugs can't heal the small intestine, has anyone heard about the effects of Dapsone and/or Sulfapyridine on pregnancy and/or breastfeeding?
