PLC on to a new theory AGAIN ha!

Hi all, I have just been reading the plc posts and they were from some time ago so I hope you guys manage to see my post. I have had PLC for five years, and was diagnosed at 38. I am female.

I have been seeing a dermatologist approximately every six months, they have no explanation and tell me if it was on their bodies they'd just ignore it. Mine has calmed a lot in the last year and I use aveeno -maybe a coincidence. However at the moment I am experiencing periods of time where I get hives on my feet and ankles. Even antihistamines don't work that well- maybe takes the edge off the itching

I do have times where I have bad acid indigestion and take lansoprazole occasionally. A theory crossed my mind the other day and I can't get it out of my head-coeliac disease-anybody have any relation to plc and Coeliac? Theory being that they are both autoimmune diseases?

I may be barking up the wrong tree!

Don't know if you are barking up the wrong tree or not but I suggest you go by your instincts. It's popping up in your head for a reason. I is fairly easy to leave out wheat for a while . Try it and see.

Good luck.
