I am going to go ahead and summarize, eventhough there
may still be a few posts coming in, as I am going to
be out of pocket for a few days.

First of all, thanks for the great response!  I guess
we can each glean from the results what we will.  It
seems to me that CD is no respector of personal blood
types.  By the number below, you can see that there
were more celiacs reported in the A and O types,
however, those are the most common types.  In a rather
out-dated encyclopedia I found the following
percentages for people in each blood type: O = 45%
                                           A = 41%
                                          AB =  4%
                                           B = 10%

Of the 156 cases reported, here is the breakdown:

A+ ... 49
A- ... 22
B+ ... 10
B- ...  1
O+ ... 35
O- ... 22
AB+ .. 11
AB- ..  1
ABrh .  1
Brh ... 3
Arh ... 1

While this poll shows more in the A group, another
poll I conducted on different forum revealed more in
the O group....so...if anyone can read anything into
this that I am not seeing, please inform.  And thanks
again for your help, as I thought it was worth
checking out.

Good health to all,
Faye
