This article updates an article by Dr. Harold Pruessner written in 1998 in the same journal, "Detecting Celiac Disease in Your Patients." It is still available at www.aafp.org/afp/98030/ap/pruessn.html These articles are good to copy and send to your own doctors, especially your internist or family doctor who might not be as familiar with CD and should be the first line of defense for patients. We want doctors to THINK CELIAC DISEASE toward the top of the list of possibilities rather than the last, as it used to be.
