Here's a summary of responses to my earlier summary.  I've lost one of those
responses which stated the writer's thought that there is a relationshp
between malabsorption and visual problems.  I now tend to agree.  I'm
wondering if celiac research and/or medical profession have recognized any
such relatoinship?  ARe we onto something new?

My mother age 87 has macular degeneration and has had to stop driving as of
this year.  I think she has had deteriorating eyesight for awhile.  I am 55
and had celiac as a baby, it came back on me about age 51, which my mother
refuses to believe.  She herself has celiac but denies it, I know she does as
when she comes to visit me all her symptoms go away.  She has had a begine
cyst in the colon, terrible allergies, joint pain, rashes, bladder
infections(constant) but still does not believe me.
I do believe that cd affects every organ in the body, there is no doubt that
intestinal problems affect the whold body, people dont understand that.
