Friend with Diarrhea

[Guest guest]

I have a good friend who has been having severe diarrhea for about 3

weeks. If this person didn't know me, I don't think she would ever

have thought about celiac disease. The problem is so bad that she is

taking Immodium daily, but hasn't limited her diet at all. She is

thinking about asking for some tests for celiac disease.

Does anyone have any ideas about advice that I could give her? I

suggested a couple of things, like stopping all medications and then

gradually adding them back in, and doing a similar thing with food.

These suggestions were not taken well, and I'm not sure any others

would be, but it's worth a try. No weight loss so far.

Thanks to all of you for any suggestions. This poor gal is really

suffering.
