Gerd like Symptoms + throat feels strange + rash on one side of body

by pectin232, Sep 28, 2009 08:05PM
The other side of my body is totally clear. The rashes are very tiny bumps on hands, legs, etc.... strangely the other side of body is fine. I am also having  a possible Liver hemangioma as was told by a GI Specalisit but not confirmed....Other symptoms also are breathlessness lie Asthma all the time. Is that common. I am quite slim and slightly mascular build. Any suggestions or anyone with similar symptoms willing to share? I took Nexium but that breathlessness symptoms still is present most of the time.

Pectin, have you ever been checked for celiac - intolerance to gluten? I can't explain why you'd have a rash on only one side of your body, but rashes are characteristic of celiac. Celiac can also present with GERD-like symptoms - it's a great mimic of other GI disorders.

Thanks so much I have NEVER NEVER known about this... I will now look into this....thing is the doctor did a ultrasound and saw a 1cm mass which he thinks is Liver hemangioma ..... but these sporadic rashes on one side [they alternate] and then when it is cured... a few weeks later... it goes on the other side. Very very strange.. also the Acid Reflux/ GERD liker symptoms and breathlessness like Asthma which put me to use an inhaler..... is making me sad

Problem is it also happens when I sometimes take soya sauce... to make matters worst.... sometimes it does not even happen [no rashes] and sometimes beer cause me to have an outbreak and sometimes don't... like 50/50%.. is that still considered to be Gluten intolerant?
