Hi toeknee, I'm not sure if your friend was misdiagnosed with CD when it was Crohns? They are both immune disorders where the immune system is having a reaction to something. With coeliac it is gluten but with Crohns they are not sure what triggers it.

Crohns is also common in coeliac and people with Crohns seem to benefit from a gf diet.
