That's ok Fliss, the not remembering. I too, have alot on the brain

(information that is). If I mix that with a bad pain day then I

can't remember anything ! Anyway, yes you are correct, I don't have

a CP diagnoses yet. I tend to do alot of research on the web to try

to educate myself on numerous things including (CP, celiac disease,

SOD, etc.) One web site was

http://www.aafp.org/afp/980301ap/pruessn.html, scroll down to table

2 and it mentions pancreatitis with celiac disease. another web-site

is: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/query.fcgi?

cmd=Retrieve & db=pubmed & dopt=Abstract & list_uids=10570344. I know,

that is a long one. Just copy and paste and hopefully it will come

up. Let me know if you have any problems finding the articles. I

am still doing more research on CD and CP and SOD. Of course they

are all in the same area of the gastrointestinal tract, so that sort-

of makes sense.

Kris,

I am so sorry that you have put your back out. Like you, I am also

suffering from reinuring my back, only I know why mine is hurting. In

late Feb/early March, I fell while in the hospital and crushed a disk

(circular bone portion of the vertebra).Because it's a compound fracture

and my arms and legs weren't affected, there isn't anything they could

do but wait for the bone to heal. Well, I was healing fine until last

weekend. I went out of town to visit a friend and her family and I had

to use public transportation to get there as I don't drive. So, I used a

luggage cart figuring this would keep me from hurting my back with my

luggage. WRONG. The walk from our subway system to the ferry evidently

was too much for my back despite the luggage cart. I didn't have to

worry about this on the way to my friends because the bus runs on

Saturdays. But on Sundays, the buses don't run, so I have to take the

ferry in to town, When I woke up the next morning, i could barely move.

I hope your back heals soon. Have you thought about seeing a doctor when

this happens to find out if there is anything they can do to fix it?
