I just wanted to let anyone know who lives in MA that The Wine Shop of Reading now carries Ramapo Valley beer. It is right on Rte. 28 in Reading. I asked if they could start carrying it and they did.

So anyone in the area check it out!!

I would love to meet some celiac sisters!! It is so hard when you are the only one in the family and in your group of friends that is gluten free. To have everyone at the table be gluten free would be awsome!!

I hope I didn't scare anyone off with my great enthusiasm!!

I am not afraid! :P

Okay so here goes...first gluten-free beer ever is in my hand, and I'm about to take the first sip...

I'm nervous as all hell because I LOVED beer prior to my dx. And I'm not talking Bud Light -

I specifically loved IPA's because of their tasty hops...I see the word "lager" on the Ramapo bottle -

SCARY - never did like lagers...but...here goes...

well, as I suspected it's sweet <_< - especially the aftertaste

I'm not sure how I feel about it...guess I'll have to drink this one and have another just to make sure how I feel! :lol:

Alright guys just tell me where to be and when -

France, why don't you tell us what a good time for you is and perhaps we can schedule it for then!

Are you drinking on the job over there? ;)

My schedule is pretty free...not much on the agenda during the week after work...

So I am very flexible!

HA! No, No...not sure why I said I posted at 2:30 or whatever, but I was at home and it was near 7.

Although a liquid lunch is not unheard of at times.... :)

How about next Friday, the 12th, after work, say around 6 for those of us that are nearby and others can filter in as they arrive? I really, really hate the Outback - I think their food is dreadful but I can always make do. Someone said there is also a legal Seafoods around? Does everyone like seafood?

I do think we should make reservations, yes? So...let's see what everyone thinks!

I like the Ramapo because it's BEER, but it's a little too sweet. I like amber beers like Red tail and I love Once in a Blue Moon Pumpkin ale, Sierra Nevada. i have to say Bard's Tale was the BEST- not just a good gluten-free beer, but a good beer. Period.

Legal wouold be great. I have $100 in gift certificates to Legal because the one in Peabody screwed me up. But i've never had problems with Burlington so some of dinner is on me! Plus, the malls up here in NH stink so Burlington is always a good excuse for me to go on a Sephora splurge. I'm pretty flexible. Next wweek, Monday night is out because I teach but I think I'm pretty open Tuesday-Thursday. The week after that i'm having my gall bladder out so I'd have to wait until after the 23rd.

Let me know what you guys think? It'd be fun!

Next friday the 12th around 6 should work for me. the Outback is OK but I do have the $100 towards Legal which i would LOVE to share with me celiac sisters. :)

I know I said I was flexible...but I actually have plans Thursday and Friday the 11th and 12th..

Honestly, I am usually at home on my brown couch everynight after work! ;)

If the 12th works for all of you...hopefully we can do this again...

Maybe try to do it once a month!

OK, so Burlington Legal Seafoods Friday May 12th at 6:00?

Is that good with everybody?

I will make it for sure...just will leave my work (if you want to call it work) early.

Oh I see one can't make it...how about the 19th?

Ok, you guys are really going to hate me now! I did not want to have to say it, but I have a colonoscopy the morning of the 19th...not that it matters what we say to fellow celiacs when it comes to our health problems! So I won't be in work and won't be able to drive that whole day...

Can we do something the following week? From Berneses post, the 19th will be bad for her as well...

So maybe we can do something on Wed the 24th or Thurs the 25th(that Friday will be the start of Memorial weekend, so prob not a good time for anyone to meet up)...

Or you gals can all meet up on the 12th, as that works for everyone else and then we can try something for the four of us in June...

I might have to reneg that comment about being flexible! ;)

Sorry again for being a pain!

      My Adult daughter is blaming me for her "possible" Celiac disease.

      By Marie70 · Posted

      Hello, My mid twenties daughter is blaming my husband and I for her celiac disease.  She has not been diagnosed at all, but GOOGLE has informed her she has it.  She is going to go get tested now, but my question is, did we?  I was not the best cook while she was growing up and often made quick processed food for meals.  She is blaming us for what she ate growing up and is angry that we didn't feed her better.  I don't know how to react and all I could tell her was I was sorry.  Her older brother has Crohn's disease and he was diagnosed as a teenager.  She is also furious with us that we didn't change his diet either.  I don't know why I didn't and I am having so much guilt I don't even know how to handle this situation.  Both sides of our family have a history of IBS, Celiac and Crohn's disease.   I guess I just wanted to hear from anyone out there that can either point blame at me (I can accept it) or tell me that the food she ate growing up didn't have an affect on her.  I am thinking it most likely did. Thank you, Marie

      High blood test numbers - with scales. Any advice?

      By RMJ · Posted

      I’d say celiac is likely.  Please continue to eat plenty of gluten until your endoscopy to be sure that any gluten-related damage can be seen.  Plus it gives you one last chance to enjoy your favorite gluten-containing foods. I hope the endoscopy/biopsies give you a definitive answer.

      By TexasCeliacNewbie · Posted

      I do also have the bloating, gas, constipation, hair loss, an auto-splenectomy that no one can see any reason for and some elevated liver enzymes that don't seem to have a cause, I also have joint pain and some spinal compression fractures that have no explanation.  I am only 42 so haven't had a bone density test yet.  My calcium was normal, but my D was a little low.  They haven't checked for any other vitamin deficiencies yet.  My blood test for an autoimmue disorder was quite high but my Thyroid was all normal.

      By TexasCeliacNewbie · Posted

      Hi, I have been having a lot of back pain and gut issues for 8 weeks or so.  I saw the GI on Monday and my results just came in from the lab.  Some of these number are high and off the little chart from the lab.  I am reading this correctly that I most likely have Celiac, right???  It would explain a lot of things for me.  She does have me scheduled for a colonoscopy and endoscopy in  2 weeks to do the biopsy.  I posted this prior, but forgot to put the range assuming they were all the same.  Someone advised me to repost with the ranges for some insight in the meantime. Immunoglobulin A, Qn, Serum 140 (normal) - Normal is 87-352 Deamidated Gliadin Abs, IgA 256 (High) - Moderate to strong positive at or above 30 Deamidated Gliadin Abs, IgG 65 (High) - Moderate to strong positive at or above 30 t-Transglutaminase (tTG) IgA 31 (High) - Moderate to strong positive above 10 t-Transglutaminase (tTG) IgG 10 (High) - Positive is at or above 10

      Colonoscopy with large area of inflammation

      By trents · Posted

      Usually, the blood testing is done first and the endoscopy/biopsy follows for confirmation if there are positive antibody test scores. Historically, the endoscopy with biopsy has been considered to be the gold standard for diagnosing celiac disease. If the tTG-IGA scores are very high (5x-10x normal), some doctors will forego the endoscpoy/biopsy and grant a celiac disease diagnosis without it. So, if you are starting with the endoscopy/biopsy that may be all you need to arrive at a diagnosis. Another possibility would be for the GI doc to do a blood draw for antibody testing on the same day you come in for the endoscopy/biopsy.
