Hi,

Here is one more message on the subject:

Could be undiagnosed celiac disease. See this site:

There are many sites that I point to here where the MS and gluten
connection is discussed. But generally casein also has to be removed from
the diet to get good results. And probably also soy.

Which just shows the doctor's ignorance. When Joe Murray was at the U. of
Iowa they diagnosed three celiacs over 400 pounds. Here is a study on this:

Prospective study of body mass index in patients with coeliac disease was
published in the BMJ. It reports that of 50 newly diagnosed celiac
patients, 11 were underweight, 22 were within the normal range, and 17 were
overweight.
