<<Disclaimer: Verify this information before applying it to your situation.>> Hi, In my ongoing quest to prove to the medical community that what they are looking at is Celiac, I've included the below paragraph in my latest presentation. So far, so good. They're impressed with my depth of knowledge and research. What do you think of the validity of my argument in the following paragraph? Commentary: One of the gross symptoms, for a lifetime of Celiac, is "failure to thrive as a child, usually before the age of two." In my case there is an extenuating circumstance. I was exclusively breast feed for the first two(2) years of life. Within the next three (3) years, at approximately the "start of school age, 4 1/2 - 5", I was already laden with constipation and getting Milk of Magnesia every other day, on prescription vitamins/minerals and on a "weight gaining tonic" [all previously reported to you] because I was underweight. This scenario comes conspicuously close to "failure to thrive before the age of two (2)".
