I was wonder if anyone knows of any retreats for struggling celiac's?

A place to get away and get to help with diet, anxiety, etc. done by professionals.

I wish, I dreamed I once worked at a Celiac half way house kind of thing. Be nice to have a place like that, you know teaches the diet, how to cook, nutritional classes, etc. There are camps for kids, like gluten free summer camps.

Me too.   Especially also for a single person like myself and who rarely cooked before diagnosed.  I think it would be very useful and probably save the insurance companies a lot of money in the long run by reducing the doctors visits, urgent care stops, and medicines they prescribed.

I don't know where you live but Whole foods has gluten-free cooking classes & sometimes a grocery tour.  We have a grocery here that offers different allergy cooking classes and a dietitian you can make an appointment with to tour the store and get recipes.  I have seen other places that offer cooking classes for gluten-free, vegan, etc.  You might find some sort of retreat/vacation place that is gluten-free - probably vegan, too - Like a yoga or wellness retreat.

All 100% gluten free!  ?

Seriously, I would love to go to an adult celiac camp.  No luck.   No time this year, but I will be on that gluten-free cruise in the future!

Not a celiac retreat.   But might be something I will do!  Thanks for this.   I spent a day for work in Prague.   Went to Mustek area for dinner....not diagnosed at the time.    Cool area to visit.   Ya, you might see me there.

      This is another study that dispels the myth that glyphosate is safe: "Pesticides and prostate cancer incidence and mortality: An environment-wide association study": https://acsjournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/cncr.35572

      Welcome to the forum, @Kiwifruit! Were you on a reduced gluten diet when those blood tests or the biopsies were done?
    • Kiwifruit
      Hi everyone. I have a history of GI issues (gas, diarrhoea, pain, fatigue). In 2018 I had a a blood test that returned “weak positive” for Celiac (I don’t have access to this result) and in early 2018 I had an endoscopy. The dr said by appearance he believed it would be Celiac but biopsy said no. 2022 I had another blood test with results: Anti TTG IgA: 27 units (norm 0-20) high IgA: 0.9 g/l (norm 0.8 - 4.0) Endomysial antibodies: neg I had a colonoscopy and endoscopy and had the same abnormal appearance but negative biopsies. All my dissachrides were low so I was referred on to a dietitian. I am still struggling with all my GI issues but now with nausea, brain fog and weakness/joint pain even following the low disaccharide diet with enzymes. I’m now pondering my previous results and see that all 3 low disaccharides can also be an indicator of Celiac. I’m struggling and so confused and wondering if anyone has any guidance or advice for me? Thank you

      I agree with @RMJ and unfortunately different celiacs have different trigger levels for gluten, and some celiacs have little or no symptoms at all when exposed to gluten.

      In people with celiac disease, gluten can trigger migraine headaches, and we have a category of research summaries on this topic: https://www.celiac.com/celiac-disease/celiac-disease-amp-related-diseases-and-disorders/migraine-headaches-and-celiac-disease/
