I'm allways concerned that my children and grand children could present
with CD.

I see and hear about their ailments which often I see links to symptoms
that I and other Coeliacs may have had and wonder if their Dr is clued up
enough to check it out.

My grandson has a patchy rash only on his legs for which he was prescribed
a cortisone creams. This worked for a short while and then became
uneffective. He scratches it untill it bleeds. The Play Scholl he attends
expressed concern at these raised round patches.  We thought it could be a
contact rash affected by man made fibres but that wasn't it. I thought of
DH and printed out a bit of Web Page FAQ for my Son in Law and Daughter to
read. I worry that she may not want the Dr to send him off to a GE for
tests and Biopsy or may be seeing a Dr that is not familiar with the
condition.

Am I over concerned. There is a limit to how far you can go before
interfering in the life of your kids. Any comments on approach would be
appreciated.
