Hi Listers --

I am the parent of an almost 3 1/2 year old celiac. he was biopsy diagnosed
two years ago and has been on a strict GF diet ever since. He has regular
blood work and the tests come back fantastic each time.

Despite the apparent excellent health, doctors are concerned with our son's
lack of growth both before and still after his celiac diagnosis. We are now
talking about growth hormone testing and possible treatment.

Does anyone have experience with growth hormone treatments in conjunction
with being celiac? What have people's experiences been -- both good and bad?
