Hello everyone. I am very new to this as I just found out yesterday that I have celiac disease. I'm interested in finding someone in the area or maybe not in the area to talk to. It's a very scary thing to have and I am very confused. Any help would be wonderful! Hope to talk to someone soon!

Hello Dawn and welcome to the forum! Sorry, I'm way down here in VA, but here are some support groups in NY that might be of some (local) help to you. We're pretty fun here and can perhaps offer you much help, so feel free to share and ask any questions you might have.

Good luck to you!

I live in NY, also............but a few hours away from you; in NYC.........I find that the board is enough support for me........I also talk to a few people here off the boards via e-mail or instant message. It doesn't really matter where they live, as long as they're someone else to talk to

Also in NY here. But I'm to your west over near Syracuse.

Ditto to what Coutler said. I don't know anyone in real life, actually really haven't talked to anyone by IM or email either.. but found this board to be very very helpful with the confusion and such. Just look around, use the search function to find things. And if you can't find something, start a new post asking about it. =)

      Brasswell marmalade and jellies are gluten free?

      By ElisaAllergiesgluten · Posted

      Good afternoon, I don’t know if anyone here has ever tried Braswell’s products like their marmalades or jellies? Are they gluten-free? On the ingredients says “cane sugar, cherries (cherries, cane sugar), strawberries, corn syrup, pectin and citric acid. That ingredient list is from their berry preserve bottle. Most of them say the same for ingredients, but I’m not sure if it is okay to consume.

      I have seen this problem many times. I always get in touch with the company. Most times they tell me if I'm just gluten free it is ok, but do not eat it if you are celiac. Calling the company is the best way when you are not sure. Yesterday I had a different example of products being marked gluten-free.  I love chocolate and have a piece each day. The chocolate bar I like is Chocolove. When I bought one this week it was not marked gluten-free. I called the company to find out why and if it was still gluten-free.  Turns out the manufacturer decided there was too much on the wrapper and took off the gluten-free label. It is made in a dedicated gluten-free facility.

      Is Gliadin X recommended/safe for accidental glutening or where there is a risk of cross contamination? Or is there any other recommendation in such case? We travel alot to meet family and dine out as well. There is always risk of accidental glutening and cross contamination. Thanks.

      So, is their reasoning for doing another biopsy after you've been gluten free for awhile to get a comparison of before and after? In other words, there should be healing of the SB lining if you go gluten free for awhile if you have celiac disease?
