I am gluten intolerant and have a positive celiac blood test, and have 
arthritis type pain, stiffness and such increasingly over 10 yrs.  The 
rheumatologist wants to give me this drug which is also used for 
inflammatory bowel disease because I also have a history of irritable 
bowel.   She said there is a particular inflammatory arthritis that 
celiacs get and has done a gene test on me for HLA-B27 but I don't have 
the results yet.
I know liver function needs to be watched and that you have to limit sun 
exposure.  Does anyone have experience with this medication for 
arthritis like symptoms?  I am to get 500mg once a day initial; if I 
tolerate it I should take it twice a day.
I will summarize.
Thanks for your replies.
