I would like to welcome the gluten-free mail list members to CELIAC. Several
of us had independently arranged to start a listserv-based list on Celiac and
gluten-free issues; and were just about to start it when we heard of Evan
Hunt's gluten-free list. We thought it best to combine forces. St. John's
University has generously offered the use of its computing infrastructure,
and the new list, CELIAC, was started this week. As you saw from your
"welcome" message, the list has many bells and whistles, such as the ability
to [...]35_6Nov199422:35:

The results were "normal". I did not ask for the numbers; should I? [...]34_7Nov199408:40:

My 4 1/2 year old son had many of the same symptoms - diarrhea,
slow-growth (not really abnormal, but almost always well below 50th
percentile). His bowel movements were generally very runny, yellow,
and frothy. He was given the same types of tests in the late spring
of this year and the results were all negative. [...]37_7Nov199411:17:

In reply to Beth Jones and in comment to Steve Greenspan's reply to Beth...
My son has casein intolerance rather than a lactose intolerance. I am not a
chemist, but as I understand it casein is a protein, and is similiar to gluten
in structure...lactose is a sugar (?) [...]39_7Nov199409:39:
