<<Disclaimer: Verify this information before applying it to your situation.>> I'm new to the list, and have found the information I've received so far quite interesting. My father was diagnosed with celiac sprue in 1975. I tend to have allergies to foods (which I now can see might be celiac), and my son has asthma. I'm writing, however, to find out if anyone knows if there is a connection between celiac and Cystic Fibrosis. My nephew's son has been diagnosed with CF. Their doctor told them that my father may actually have had a mild case of CF, instead of celiac. My father died 20 years ago, so we can't have him tested. I was searching around the web looking for information and found a piece of mail on a CF list written in 1994 hypothesizing that there may be some connection and that celiac, asthma, and allergies might indicate the person is a carrier. Thanks for any information, Vickie
