This is from 1998 - some of the numbers may not be up to date - but there is some good background info here.

Thanks - for the above it is very informative "medically".

I have a granddaughter age 12/13 who just this summer developed seizures. This article confirms my suspisions, I told my son and their Dr did not consider the seizures to be a issue regarding celiac.

- Now another granddaughter age 20 is developing stomach problems... they are taking test... Waiting for results...

You are right to be concerned!! I have seen several people say that their seizures stopped after removing gluten. MSG is another thing that can trigger them.

Keep up the detective work Agent Barb! Smile
