I have seen in other replies throughout this board where people say they learned something in their other groups. Are there any other sites like this one or good sites to get more information? I would love to be part of an online group. I'm always so busy and have never had time to find a support group in my area that meets.

Anybody know of any good online groups or other sites, or celiac groups in Atlanta?

Thanks,

MURDA :)

Hi Murda,

The only other online support group I am aware of and belong to is: Open Original Shared Link

I am in GA too and know of one suport group that meets in Gwinnett County Open Original Shared Link , their website has not been updated in a while but you can get basic information there.

If you click on the box about the dinner and at the bottom of the next page is an email address of the person (Patsy) you can contact for current information about their meetings.

Also there is another meeting in Cobb county, if you are interested I will send you an email with the information.

Thank you very much both of you. I am out of Gwinnett County so I contacted Patsy, and will hopefully get some information soon.

Thanks again! :)

Hi Murda. The next meeting of the Gwinnett Group will be July 10 (Saturday). I don't have the time yet (probably 10 or 11 am, but not sure yet). I'll post the information once it's confirmed. Hope to see you there. Kim.

There is a wonderful on-line support group at www.delphiforums.com

Go to Health and Wellness and click on it. Then the Celiac Disease On-Line Support group is the 2nd one listed. Hope this helps.

      gluten-free and continued upper left side pain after drinking wine

      By Raquel2021 · Posted

      Yes stress can .make the pain worse. That being said it is taking years for my body to heal. I am not able to eat out as 98 % of restaurants do not know how to cook for celiacs.  I only eat out on special occasions. Any time I eat gluten I feel there is a tourch going through my digestive system specifically in the area you have mentioned.  Like where the deudenal is . I am very sensitive to cross contamination so any small amount of gluten makes me sick.

      Gluten free diet - are these symptoms normal?

      By trents · Posted

      @Ems10, celiac diagnosis normally involves two steps. The first one is serum antibody testing which you may have already have had done and are waiting on the results. The second step involves and endoscopy (aka, gastroscopy) with biopsy of the small bowel lining. This second step is typically ordered if one or more antibody tests were positive, is a confirmation of the serum antibody testing and is considered the gold standard diagnostic test for celiac disease. Now hear this, you should not be eating gluten free weeks or months in advance of either kind of testing. Prematurely going on a gluten free diet can and will sabotage the results of the endoscopy/biopsy should you get a referral to a GI doc who would want to do that. Eliminating gluten from the diet causes causes inflammation to subside which allows the small bowel ling to heal such that the damage they would be looking for is no longer there.

      Approximately 10x more people have non-celiac gluten sensitivity than have celiac disease, but there isn’t yet a test for NCGS. If your symptoms go away on a gluten-free diet it would likely signal NCGS.

      It might make sense for you to find out if they've run a celiac disease test on you, and if not, consider planning for it.

      Thanks for your reply! I’m really not too sure, the doctor just took a few tubes of blood & that’s all I know 🥹
