1. HELLO and THANK YOU!  The Thank You is on behalf of my 3yr. old nephew,
Tyler, who has been recently diagnosed with Celiac Disease.  For 3 years he
suffered from  malnutrition and DH; he was rushed--near death--to the
hospital on at least three occassions.  I noted that Tyler's symptoms
resembled the symptoms of CD/GI and asked my cousin if her doctor/allergist
had ever considered testing him for it--she hadnt.  She did. He tested
positive and is showing signs of improvement on his new diet.  I dont think
that it is an overstatement to say that this list has saved his life. Once
again, Thank you.
 
2. Now, a question:
 
I wonder if any list members using the The Pill as a contraceptive device
could advise on which brands are safe.  Specifically, does any one know if
Ortho brands are safe?
 
Best,
