<<Disclaimer: Verify this information before applying it to your situation.>> A couple of weeks ago, I questioned whether there was a link between thyroid disease (in my case hypothyroidism) and CD since my 4 yr old son has CD and I was diagnosed during my pregnacy with him to have hypothyroidism. Several, or maybe I should say many, since I received over 15 responses that indicted that there is a link and that I should definately be tested for CD since I am a first degree relative of one who has CD and one who has another "autoimmune disorder". Ron Hoggan also provided me with a list of several articles that document the association between the two. If anyone is interested, please let me know and I will forward his note to you. As a side note, when I went to my endocrinologist for a followup on my thyroid I asked about being tested for CD and he wrote up the lab slip without any hesitation. (For those who are curious, I have not gotten back the results yet.) Michele Kratzmeier (301) 640-3079 861/4B40
