Thanks, Just curious & learning.
I would love more info on DR and celiac. My ped ordered DR for oldest instead of DQ. She's DR 4,1 and he said thats proof positive she won't develop it. All I could find was something linking DR to RA, which makes me think it might be linked after all.

He ordered DR 2, 8 specifically on the lab order and it came back with the actual results.
