Interesting, pabb...could also be related to the unexplained weight loss (30 lbs in a year) and also muscle weakness and easy bruising. But it seems like diarrhea features prominently with celiac disease, and I almost always have the opposite problem, so I never considered it. Well, at least someone is finally looking into some of these things, and I feel hopeful for the first time in ages!
