<<Disclaimer: Verify this information before applying it to your situation.>> Like everyone else probably has, I recommend *Against the Grain* by Jax Peters Lowell, and Bette Hagman's cookbooks, which have lots of sound advice on gf eating. I was also kind of excited to read this in Kenny's post: "lots of other symptoms that I have been living with will likely all be linked to CD (like eosinophilic gastroenteritis and chronic kidney stones)." I've been diagnosed with eosinophilic gastroenteritis too, and my gi doctor will not now even consider that I might also have cd, since he feels he's found my whole problem. (My gastroenterologist does concede I may well be "sensitive" to wheat, and is supporting my gf diet, as he says "It often seems to help these kinds of cases.") I don't feel EG accounts for all my childhood miseries, short stature, bad teeth, etc. etc., and I have suspected the eosinophilia may have struck me in a spot that was already damaged (by cd): the upper part of my small intestine was what was most seriously inflamed and infiltrated by the eosinophilic cells; only the adjacent stomach showed some visible inflammation as well, although the infiltration showed up literally from top to bottom of my gi system on the biopsies. There probably aren't enough of us with EG to make a study feasible, but it would be interesting if others cropped up in the Univ. of MD study going on. (I don't have the results of my bloodwork back from the public testing in November, but expect it will be negative, in view of my gf diet since March 1997.) Good luck and good health!
