Absolutely. These are all known symptoms. The primary diagnosis tool for celiac is the detection of anti-gliadin antibodies in the bloodstream. This is often confirmed with a secondary, more reliable but more invasive diagnostic tool of endoscopic biopsy. Even those without outward GI symptoms still have the deformed villi internally, and they don't know why some don't have noticeable GI symptoms despite the internal damage. The skin rash associated with celiac is called dermatitis herpetiformis. Some forms are severe, but sometimes it is mild enough to be misdiagnosed as eczema. I'm on my phone now, but I can dig up a variety of studies on my real computer tomorrow morning if you want.
