Here is a summary of the medical tests I should get as a "Newly Diagnosed
Celiac" patient.  Thanks to everyone for there comments and well wishes!  : )
 Kim

One suggestion for this test:  <4> McKinley M, Leibowitz 5, Bronzo R, Zanzi
I, Weissman G, Schiffman G. _Clin Gastroenterol_, Mar 20 1995 (2):113-6.
Although I have not yet read their full reports, two research groupsare
recommending pneumococcal vaccine for people with celiac disease.McKinley et
al. state: "Vaccination of all patients with celiacsprue seems
appropriate."<4> They make this recommendation based ontheir investigations
of ten patients with celiac disease.


Multiple, multiple suggestions for the following:
Bone Density, T3, T4 and TSH Levels (thyroid), blood work panel on digestive
enzymes, liver enzymes, and iron; nutrient levels, hemocult, calcium,vit D,
iron, folate, folic acid, vit K, vit B12, magnesium, and zinc levels.

Thanks again everyone!  Kim
