Here it is, Don.  I don't know anything about celiac disease, but if I can
help her with FM feel free to put her in touch with me.  I'm not an MD, just
a very experienced PWF and a researcher in the subject.

To get the FAQs, send the following email message (no subject necessary):

    GET FIBROM-L PT-FAQ
    GET FIBROM-L MD-FAQ
    GET FM-PAIN HANDOUT

to [log in to unmask] or [log in to unmask]  These are also available
by anonymous FTP from vmd.cso.uiuc.edu in directory FAQS.
