"I am curious to know if any of the adults have an autoimmune disease
other than celiac"

I hope that you all don't mind me replying to the list rather that the
author but I might have some information that might useful to all.  If
you are not curious about addison's disease then skip to the bottom
where I put some links.

In response to the above question, I have addison's disease.  There is
more than one type of addison's disease.  The most common is auto immune
addison's.   It is one of those "rare ones", 1 in 100,000 chance of
getting it.  Basically addison's is adrenal insufficiency.  I have had
it for approximately 1 1/2 yrs., during which time I believe that I also
should have been diagnosed with CD.  Only when I found a new doctor that
was proactive and new what he was doing did I get diagnosed with CD.  I
got that wonderful news on the 26th of December 1997.  I have been on
the gluten free diet now since that day and I feel better than I have in
about 3 years.

Excellent medical resource area.  Just type in whatever you want to search
for...like "addison's".

http://www.rxlist.com/cgi/rxlist.cgi   Not really addisons related but
you can search for any prescription drug by name.  I've seen a lot of
?'s about prescriptions on this listserve.

Anyway, take care.
