He is very active so we never thought anything about it. Before he went to the hospital he was having diareha lots so thats when we found out after blood work was done on him...

He is 28. Started eating gluten free as soon as he got home from the hospital and was put on Feramax 150,, he was also taking B12 and calcium pills for about 2 months after he got home in January from the hospital, but only now taking the iron pill once a day for the last month or so.

My son was diagnosed in January with Celiac disease. he has come along way since then as he is also autistic. My question is since he had a very low iron level he was put on a iron pill to take daily and since then he has broke out all over his back and neck with red acne pimples. He always had clean clear skin up till now. Any one else encounter this? Thanks...
