Many Thanks to so many of you who replied to my quest for info on Boneva and the like meds and calcium. The response and support is invaluable. I soon will report back on what you have shared in the way of a basic summary.
I will let you know that I am 46 years old and was dx'd in Nov. 07 with Celiac Disease and Colitis by way of biopsy. While I am sure I have made some GF mistakes along the way - hopefully few and far between, not only have I gone from a size 10 when I first got sick.. am down to a size one to now kids small size cloths. From around 135lbs to 109.5 this week at my gastro docs office. Since April have lost another 5 lbs. What is strange to me is that I am not only eating alot more, I am eating at night.... all the way to bed time, just to make sure I have calories that may stick with me. I have had - in the past, before being dx''d with Celiac, and Colisis, trouble loosing a pound no matter what- and NOW cannot get a leg up on Colitus a lb no matter what I eat.
My bowls are still not right and still have loose bowls 3 times every a.m. with floating and   gassy stools. Sounds lovely, right. (ha) But I know you understand.
I give myself weekly B-12 shots  in early have taken 2 months worth of D rx's vitamins.
My Gastro doc will do another Endoscopy and bioscopies in early Juky because he thinks my issues of not getting better arises from either possibly Refractive  Celiac Disease or an issue with my Colitus.
Also in the last few years I have lost so much bone that I have lost a few teeth and the Oroal Surgeon says that I don't havough bone to insert implants. ugh!!!!!
I am a totqlly singlr paret of ww Medically disabled son whomis 9. He is so cool- as he reads lables now trying to make sure what I eat is..... safe.
My Best,
Tempe
