My son is going to have his blood drawn for antibody testing.  Thank you to
all the information on the list.  Showing the blood test to the doctor was a
big help.  We are careful that he is eating wheat products to get an
accurate blood test.

The doctor also ordered a lactose tolerance test.  Since my son has been
having symptoms from lactose intolerance we have removed all the lactose
from his diet.  My son feels some better now - less stomach pain.  However,
will a lactose tolerance test be accurate if he has not ingested lactose for
weeks.  (Is there a dose given at the time of the test?)

Thank you for your help
