Re: worried: bumps on scar line - biopsy indicates allergy

Alaska Angel, a friend of mine had an itchy rash very much like the one you are describing. She went to doctor after doctor but found no relief, until an allergist put her on a diet. That helped a lot, but she had a hard time sticking to the diet.

She then went to see an orthomolecular therapist, who tested her feces and concluded she had severe gut disbiosis. This seemed to be causing the development of the allergies, resulting in the itchy rash. She has been on several supplements for about six months now, and the allergies are getting significantly better.

I have no idea whether that kind of therapy would be available to you, but wanted to mention it just in case it would give you another option.
