Has anyone who experiences the DH rash had a CT scan with contrast? My doctor ordered one for me, and when I realized that the contrast is iodine based, I headed straight here to ask around. I was not properly diagnosed with DH rash after my celiac diagnosis, but my doctor strongly suspected that's the kind of rash I had, since it occurred around the time of my celiac disease diagnosis and cleared since adopting the gluten-free diet. I had a small bit of rash breakout after eating some seaweed snacks. I read that those with DH rash often need to avoid iodine, so I have since then.
Has anyone with DH had this type of procedure done? An imaging tech at the center where I'm having my scan said that there's a pre-medicating protocol for those with allergies to iodine. I don't understand the DH rash/iodine connection, so does anyone know if premedicating would be effective? Anyone with experience with this out there?
Thanks!
