<< She has never been to a
 specialist for her celiac's (I suggested that she find one) but has been
 to conferences etc to find out as much as she can >>

you know me, i hardly ever quote, but this really begins to frighten me, this
avoidance of medical help. i know, not all doctors are the god-like creatures
like some we are accustomed to meeting on lactnet, but still. get a diagnosis,
for heaven's sake (good advice, Dana, but she should get a real diagnosis
before you start advising her).
