Ginnysgirl Posted November 6, 2004 Report Share Posted November 6, 2004 Just a question. My daughter is now coming up with small blister type bumps that start out as a red dot under the skin. This lasts for a couple of days then grows and becomes bigger. It looks like a tiny little water blister. Just wondering if anyone has had anything like this. We had to have a biopsy taken of them today because this is the third time she has had them just recently. Immunologist isn't sure what it is. Two weeks for results.Would appreciate any info.Thanks so much Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Star382000 Posted November 6, 2004 Report Share Posted November 6, 2004 Are they itchy? I was reading about celiac (see thread on other heath conditions) and was led to a page about dermatitis herpetiformis here's the link if it helps any, the symptoms sound kind of similiar, and although there are many things it could be, thought I'd offer this recent bit of knowledge I gained http://www.celiac.com/st_prod.html?p_prodi...-35104066232.baI hope the test results come back helpful, you and your daughter are in my prayers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jbbb Posted November 6, 2004 Report Share Posted November 6, 2004 If they are like what my daughter gets, Dr. Grubb said they are peziotic granules (something like that) and are a result of her also having EDS (hyperflexibility) . Sometimes they progress to almost an impetigo-like condition, and sometimes antibiotics seems to help . She also gets cuts that won't heal and sunburns easily. You can chack an EDS website.

Ginnysgirl Posted November 7, 2004 Author Report Share Posted November 7, 2004 Thanks so much for the responses. She does have hyperflexibility but has not been diagnosed with EDS as of yet. I will look into the websites though.Thanks for the info!!! Greatly appreciated as are the prayers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
