Anyone have any info on this and its relationship with RA and the likes?I know some people DXed with RA actually have celiac, and I know symptoms vary so it can be hard to DX, and I know many people with RA do better on a gluten free diet, but that's all I know.

Clufus -

From what I've seen on the Roadback, many of us have either a gluten intolerance or are celiac.  There is special testing to determing if you have it.  I'd check out http://www.celiac.com/ to see about that.  And which gluten free foods actually taste good.  I hear there are quite a few 'icky' replacements but if you figure out which are good, you are set.
