<<Disclaimer: Verify this information before applying it to your situation.>> Dear listmembers, When I replied to the original post on this issue, I had no intention of starting a dicussion about parasitology or the merits of traditional/alternative medicine on the Celiac List as I agree with some recent posters that that is not its purpose. However, I felt I had to point out that there were several statements in Jennifer's post which were misleading and exaggerated. I did not take these points one by one because the List is not the place for a detailed discussion on such a topic. Now that Jennifer has replied to me both directly and through the List, I have replied to her privately in more detail about some of the points she has made. If any other listmember is interested in reading this more detailed reply, please email me privately and I will forward it. I do not intend to post to the List again on this topic. Also many thanks to all who sent me messages of support on the way I dealt with this. Best GF wishes to all, Liz (Ward), Dublin, Ireland
