Acrodermatitis Enteropathica - Any experience with this?

Does anyone have any experience of this?
It's a very rare genetic condition defined by zinc deficiency and lesions around mouth/anal regions (amongst other things).
My dd is due to see the Paed dermatologist this week about this due to her on going zinc deficiency and facial dermatitis.
I am hoping it is not this, however if it is at least I now what I am dealing with rather than everyone being at a loss to why my dd has these continuing issues!
Thanks in advance
