Currently I'm living in Arizona but I'm moving to Tennessee at the end of may. I was just wondering if there is anyone from the Nashville/Murfreesboro area.

Hi- I know this was posted several months ago, but I was doing a forum "search" for anyone in Tennessee and found this thread. Hope you all will get this notification, not sure how else to contact you all. We live in M'boro and were trying to see if there was a group in this area for meetings? Please respond. If there isn't, maybe we all could start one.

I'm from Murfreesboro. As far as I know there isn't a group here. There is one in Nashville. I would love to have a support group here in Murfreesboro.

      Scott, I know full well that celiac disease is an autoimmune disorder and gluten sensitivity is not. And I agree that there is inconsistency in the use of the terms. But my contention is that "gluten intolerance" should not be used of NCGS since "gluten sensitivity" is actually found in the gluten disorder known as Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity and, therefore, "gluten intolerance" should be reserved as a common/nonmedical equivalent for celiac disease. It also seems to me that "intolerance" implies something more severe than does "sensitive". And it just seems to me that, though there is still a lot of inconsistency in the use of these terms, there is a movement toward using "gluten intolerant" to refer to celiac disease rather than NCGS. But that is just my opinion and perhaps, to be honest, a bit of a personal crusade. Actually, we would all be better off if we quit using the those informal terms "intolerance" and "sensitivity" and just speak of celiac disease and NCGS.

      Wow. I mean, I REALLY don't want to give up beer, but I NEVER cheat. I get caught (glutenized in my vernacular), but I never cheat. I didn't even know that was a thing...

      PS - Many new celiacs report that they can go gluten-free, with the exception of giving up beer. That seems to be a bridge too far from many celiacs, and may be why nearly 20% cheat on their diets:

      For those with celiac disease we know that there is a huge range in sensitivity, for example we've had many members here who report that even smelling wheat bread cooking in a bakery, for example a bakery in a supermarket, triggers an immediate gluten reaction that can last days or longer. Is there science to back this up--not that I've seen. Does this mean that it can't happen? Since it does seem to happen to some people, I can't say that there isn't something real happening to these folks.  Similarly there seems to be celiacs who can drink even regular beers, many of which have detectable gluten at under 20ppm, without issues, and many drink gluten reduced beers made from barley on a daily basis without issues, and without elevated antibodies or damaged villi. I also know that some celiacs report getting very sick from a single sip of gluten reduced beer. To be on the safe side it's probably best to stick with a naturally gluten-free beer, however, many of them lack the real beer taste, thus, some celiacs cheat on their diets and just drink regular beer. In this case I think having a choice is important, and drinking a gluten reduced option would be better than regular beer.
