My husband and son have DH and my son, Matt, was diagnosed with eczema, impetigo, and bug bites before a great dermatologist, Robert Griffith, finally diagnosed his DH. Matt has been relatively symptom free lately while on a GF diet. He does have lactose intolerance and citrus allergies (among others). Carl, my husband, still has outbreaks. We can't figure out what's causing them. They seemed to get better when he stopped using Pert Plus shampoo, but have come back a little. They are always on his back around the shoulder blades. We are a highly allergic family. Among our list of allergies are gluten, of course, dairy prods., strawberries, peanuts, citrus, grapes, MSG, phosphates in detergents, grass, pines, dogwoods, etc. I would love to hear any ideas on what may be still causing Carl to break out. He tries to strictly adhere to the diet. Denise in Tennessee [log in to unmask]
