Scott, Please pardon my brain damage. I absolutely agree that the question of Celiac status should not be on a job application or in a job interview. But it should be accommodated for after hiring.

JoeBlow replied to gfgypsyqueen's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
I just came across this thread, which has been going a long time. I have the problem, too, and it's obviously hereditary, in both my parents and their relatives.
