One last reply on this thread...again so much helpful information, and such comfort in understanding better the possible outcomes to specific paths taken. I feel that there is a light at the end of the tunnel. Muchos Gracias!

On a previous post you explained your willing involvement with this busy communication forum by recalling the feeling of hopelessness and loneliness while seeking resolution for this complicated disease, receiving no help from the GIs. Well, you are certainly seeing to it that others don't share those emotions. My gues is that many are indebted to you.

Have a good weekend!

As far as I know, she's doing fine. She started taking cholestyramine about a year or so ago and that allowed her to add some additional foods to her diet.
