I might be interested in a Union group, I don't think that is too far from where I live (in the Long Valley area). By the way, if anyone is in Hackettstown, Mama's pizzeria has a new and seemingly very good gluten free menu with pizza. It looks good.

Hi Karen & Deb-

I live in New Providence & work in Summit. Would love to meet some other Celiacs. I was diagnosed in 6/07 & have been doing this all by myself -- didn't know this chat room was here. There is a Whole Foods in Chatham that I use. They actually have relatively decent hamburger buns :D & there prairie bread makes great bread crumbs.

I would be very interested in a Union County support group. I am a colon cancer survivor, so Celiac Disease on top of that is a real shock! Would love to meet & talk!

I live in Vineland, NJ. Was just diagnosed a week ago.

We're in Vineland too. Have you tried Conte's Gluten free Pasta? We are using Conte's for the Pasta dish in our wedding in August. No one will be able to tell it's gluten free!

The Gluten Free Market carries Conte's products. they are in Fair Lawn. I don't know how far you are from there, but we live near Parsippany and it takes about 1/2 hour to get there, up 287 to 208 and they are right off 208. I was trying to find out their store hours the other day, though, and had typed their name into a search engine to see if they had a website (they don't seem to, I couldn't find it) but a For Sale listing for them popped up from Craigslist! I didn't know they were selling the store! I hope whoever buys it keeps it a gluten free market!

I'm recently diagnosed and I'm looking for friends in NJ :) I live in central Jersey, Metuchen, Edison area.

Hello,

My name is Kim. I know you had posted this post quite a while ago, I don't know if you found anybody from New Jersey or not Gluten Free. I know it is a bit of a small distance but I am from Burlington County area. I am also gluten free, and looking for some gluten free friends.

Well I hope to talk to you soon.

Kim

I'm in S. Jersey. Diagnosed 18 mos. ago. I knew I was in trouble when my GI doc asked me if I had a threshold for gluten containing products!!! Am having a terrible time with DH...just won't go away! Any and all help would be appreciated.

I grew up in Wayne, in North Jersey and although I don't live there anymore, I'm down there often enough to make checking this thread worthwhile. I hope to learn where to go for a good meal next time I'm there! Last time, I went to a pizza place with lots of gluten-free options on Allen St. in the L.E.S. (not in NJ).

      Night time migranes

      Welcome to the forum, @Debado, Migraines at night can be caused by high levels of histamine. Histamine Intolerance can cause physical symptoms like migraines. Foods contain histamine. Our bodies make histamine, an important neurotransmitter. Our bodies naturally produce more histamine at night as part of our circadian rhythm, our sleep-wake cycles...

      Gluten migranes at night

      How did your doctor arrive at the gluten intolerance diagnosis? You may want to consider finding a different doctor, one who is more familiar with Celiac disease. To be properly tested you will be asked to undergo a gluten challenge. I'm attaching an article below. Also consider getting a DNA test to look for the genes needed for Celiac disease...

      Guidance on next steps after the lab tests

      @ABP2025, Have you thought about having a DNA test to check for known Celiac genes? I do hope you will make sure that you are getting sufficient gluten to provoke an autoimmune response strong enough that the antibodies can be measured in the blood. See article below. Celiac disease affects the absorption of nutrients, including vitamins...

      Night time migranes

      Anybody ever heard of getting a migrane from gluten and coconut oil ONLY at night? If I consume gluten or coconut oil, even in the morning, I will get a migrane. But not until half way thru the night. I don't get this. Why at night? Why not right after I eat?

      Gluten migranes at night

      Thank you for that information. I had no idea about that. I have not been diagnosed with Celiac the Dr says I have gluten intolerance. I don't have any symptoms other than migranes from gluten and from coconut oil. I hate the medicine they gave me for migranes. It makes my blood pressure go up, is a diaretic so I am up all night then feel dehydrated the...

      Night time migranes

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      Welcome to the forum, @Debado, Migraines at night can be caused by high levels of histamine.  Histamine Intolerance can cause physical symptoms like migraines. Foods contain histamine.  Our bodies make histamine, an important neurotransmitter.  Our bodies naturally produce more histamine at night as part of our circadian rhythm, our sleep-wake cycles.   Some foods like gluten and nuts contain high histamine themselves or trigger our bodies to produce more histamine.  A low histamine diet is helpful, cutting out high histamine foods and histamine-release triggering foods.   Our bodies can breakdown a certain amount of histamine, but sometimes our bodies cannot keep up with the amount of histamine needing to be broken down, and can be overwhelmed by the amount of histamine resulting in Histamine Intolerance and health problems like migraines.   Vitamins C, B12, Pyridoxine B6 and thiamin B1 help lower histamine levels.  Our bodies use these vitamins to make an enzyme DOA (diamond oxidase) that breaks down histamine.  DAO from beef or pork kidney is an over-the-counter supplement that can be taken.   Riboflavin B2 is very helpful for relieving migraines.   Have you been diagnosed with Celiac Disease or suspect you have it?   Happy Holidays!

      @ABP2025, Have you thought about having a DNA test to check for known Celiac genes?    I do hope you will make sure that you are getting sufficient gluten to provoke an autoimmune response strong enough that the antibodies can be measured in the blood.  See article below. Celiac disease affects the absorption of nutrients,  including vitamins and minerals.  Your symptoms may be associated with thiamine deficiency.   Migraines and peripheral neuropathy, phimosis (yes, even this), and white spots on the brain are seen in thiamine deficiency.  Celiac disease disrupts the absorption of all the essential nutrients, but thiamine can be quickly depleted, in as little as three days.  Thiamine deficiency can occur even if blood tests show normal levels.  Thiamine deficiency can affect antibody production.

      What should I do with these test results?

      By trents · Posted

      Early on,  DQ2 and DQ8 were the primary genes that have been connected to the potential to develop celiac genes but more recent genetic research suggests there may be more.
