<<Disclaimer: Verify this information before applying it to your situation.>> Would anyone yet like answers to my questions of about 2 1/2 to 3 months ago? The questions were: one regarding soaps and detergents (some not necessarily celiac related) 'time for reversal of celiac damage', looking for food replacements/esp. pasta, rice', and one regarding whether Crohn's and celiac are linked and whether others have stronger reactions to some grains than others. Apologies for not getting them out; life has been insane lately, trying to get to the bottom of this - as it turns out its not either and not necessarily a grain allergy (its closer to MCS but necessarily that either - if any others of you are in this situation I'd be willing to let you know what I found out). And I thank all of you who gave answers and provided support in a way even though we do not share the same disease. Bill Boelema [log in to unmask] Houghton, Mi.
