Leaky gut?

The mention of gluten intolerance and an itchy rash make me suspicious of dermatitis herpetiformis which is the skin manifestation of celiac disease. You may want to look into getting a skin biopsy of the rash to see if this could be the culprit. But be sure that your physician understands how to do the biopsy -- have to follow special guidelines of staining and immunoflourescence.

I have been tested for celiac disease and was negative. I’ve been reading about leaky gut and I have a lot of the symptoms. My GI Dr seems to have knowledge of leaky gut, he took a stool sample and blood work. I’ve been to two Drs, Urgent care and the ER. Stopped eating sugar, gluten free with plenty of fruits/vegetables and purified water.
