All of the responses I received to my question regarding other celiacs who
have multiple drug allergies & sensitivities were very interesting.  Thanks
to  all who responded.

26 respondents have many similar and varied drug allergies, including
allergic reactions to antibiotics, NSAIDS, & other drugs such as neurontin,
amitryptiline, OTC drugs, etc.
Several of these 26 said they do better with a much smaller dose than
recommended, (such as a child dosage).
1 of these 26 also has sjogrens and has a friend with sjogrens and feels
that sjogrens might be more responsible for the allergies & sensitivities.
 (I forgot to mention that I also have sjogrens along with all my other
ills)

1 person responded that this is the reason we need to keep pressure on the
drug manufacturers and the FDA.

1 person recommended ..... 1) contact Steve Plogstead, the gluten free
pharmacist @ * glutenfreedrugs.com*  as many of the reactions could be
reactions to fillers or colorings    2)  possibly try an ayurvedic holistic
MD  3) maybe it's not caused by celiac, since I have other health issues.

1 celiac person has no difficulty

1 person has no allergic reactions &  takes no medications, only using
 natural methods such as yoga, tai chi, massages &  relaxation techniques

Many of the responders were also ridiculed  or discredited by their Doctors
who don't understand, or were told they were "weird".  Go figure.

I was surprised there were *so* many celiacs who all have a similar problem
-  it makes me wonder--- is it celiac, or is it a problem caused by the
pharmaceutical companies,  or have we eaten too much roundup, fertilizers,
pesticides & other toxins that have destroyed our immune system? -  or is
there some other cause?
