Can Hashimoto's Cause Skin Rash? I get a lot of people come in, and they say, "Oh, I got this rash, and I think it's coming from my Hashimoto's, and it flares up when my Hashimoto's ... It flares up." It's kind of a relationship versus Hashimoto's actually causing it. As so many of these things that I talk about, I have this, and most of the time, the skin rash is not going to be from Hashimoto's. If you look at the symptoms of Hashimoto's, they don't include skin rash. They include can't lose weight, hair loss, outer hair loss, my hair, my genitals, wherever, hair loss in my eyes. It's not skin rash. It's skin dryness usually on the shins, constipation, swelling around the ankles, but not skin rash, but we talked numerous times in our videos. We have a ton of videos on Hashimoto's, on PowerHealthTalk.com, and we talked in there about how auto-immunity, auto-immune attacks do not occur in isolation.

In other words, usually, you're going to have more than one autoimmune attack on you. If you have Hashimoto's, there's a good chance you're either going to have an immune attack on your stomach, autoimmune gastritis. Maybe you're going to develop celiac. Maybe you're going to develop autoimmune hepatitis. Maybe you're going to develop rheumatoid arthritis. Until you get your immune system under control, and as you keep developing exacerbations of your immune response that keeps attacking your thyroid, your immune system is eventually going to look around and attack other tissues that are vulnerable.

The two most common things I see that cause the rash ... Now, it depends on where the rash is. The most common thing I see is eczema now, and that's the one that I have, and it comes around here if I let it go, and it comes around here, but eczema can come in a number of different places. It doesn't have to come around your neck. The other one that we see is more on the face, is lupus, and not so much psoriatic arthritis. Most people don't come in and psoriasis. They realize that's more than a rash. Those are the two that we see the most.

A lot of people say eczema is not autoimmune, but the research and the data is moving more and more and more and more towards the fact that it is autoimmune, and I think it's autoimmune. So there. That's what's important for those of you who are listening to me, and I don't be cavalier about that. Literally, I've seen a 1,000 Hashimoto's cases. You have a chance to kind of observe these things.

Basically, what happens is let's say you're Hashimoto's and you're living on planet Mars and you haven't yet figured out that you shouldn't be eating gluten, so you eat gluten, your Hashimoto's flares up, and you start getting some of the symptoms of Hashimoto's and maybe you get heart palpitations or jittery or something like that. At the same time, your rash breaks out. You probably should start running antibodies to see if you have
