Doc says scabies. Partner hasn’t caught it?

Hi everyone, the last two weeks + I’ve had the worst full body itching of my life, broke into hives and have a rash on both my hips (I’ll add pics). The first doc I went to said scabies not likely cause. I then went to another doc today as antihistamines didn’t work and it was getting worse. She said it’s definitely scabies and issued treatment. Obviously im going to do the treatment on the chance that it isbscabies, however, I’m really confused because my partner who I’ve shared a bed with/ towel with / had sex with has 0 symptoms. scabies is highly contagious, so how on earth has she not got it from me??
Is there a chance she’s got lucky? She’s doing the treatment with me just in case.

Is this dermatitis herpetiformis?22F with gluten intolerance but unconfirmed celiac

Located on both of my hips. Itching severely all over my body. I have gluten intolerance but no antibodies for celiac. Had endoscopy but they didn’t take a biopsy for celiac. I’m wondering if it’s worth trying again. I have deficiencies that line up with malabsorption and my stools are pale. I have a family history of autoimmune issues and wondering if it’s actually celiac. Any help much appreciated.
