Bj,

thanks for your response..

maybe with more time she will improve.

Ah! gluten intolerance is so very common.Gluten is poison for so many

and they don't even know it.Or maybe they just won't try it because it

is not an easy change. My daughter, son have been gluten-free for 7+

years. Daughter has never ate gluten.

Hubby has also been gluten free(celiac) for 4 years. Gluten-free has

not been enough for them though... They have been on the specific

carbohydrate diet(SCD) for 16 months now.

The next few months will be difficult for dh and son as they will be

undergoing chelation treatments..they have high levels of toxic metals

in them...i am thinking that is why dh has no thyroid antibodies..

maybe if she is lucky her thyroid will someday function better.

I am happy to hear being gluten-free has helped you

thank you for wishing daughter well
