I think I live near a center on Butler but I am not sure exactly what they do.

I'm in Upper Dublin (Dresher). If you go to www.celiaccentral.org, you'll find info about the center that's based in Ambler. I've been thinking about signing up to volunteer with them since they're right nearby...

Yes, it's not too far from me. I have seen a sign on the door, it's just hidden up some stairs. If you are driving down Butler Pike, it's near the gas station on the corner. I have thought about them too. I heard they do cookouts and I think the support would be awesome.

Genuardis up in Spring house has a few gluten-free items. Mrs. Leeper's makes Hamburger Helpers Wheat and gluten-free. I feel like I live at Whole Foods. They used to have a list which showed each aisle's gluten-free items which they no longer carry. Plus, some of the items in their handbook do have wheat in them. The Energy Bars had them in it and they were on the gluten-free list so be sure to look for gluten-free. Amy's products are awesome and they say gluten-free on them which I love.

I wish Whole Foods would group all the items together. It'd be sooo much easier. I understand these products can be eaten by anyone but searching through the store gets annoying. ;)

Check out the Wegman's in Warrington if you haven't already. It's on 611 at the corner of Street Rd. That store's been a lifesaver for me. They put a "G" on all their store brands to indicate what's gluten free. Makes it really easy and cuts down on cost.

Really? Wegman's has G's on their food items? What have you found good so far?

I love Whole Foods but they can be costly. I feel like I doubled my cost of living lately on food and with 2 kids with hollow legs... I'd love more alternatives.

I love Wegman's- they just are a little further for me.

      Anyone try this? No matter what the brand, probiotics have ALWAYS made me break out bad. I am hesitant to try this simply for that fact, but I ordered a 3 month supply. Any input would be appreciated. Wish me luck.

      Gluten free vitamins

      @llisa, I am curious to know how much vitamin D you are taking and what is your plasma level in nmol/L or ng/ml what the doctor's target 25(OH)D is. Hopefully with the gluten free diet you'll be able to feel better.

      Yes, but if you had been avoiding bread because of the stricture, that might explain the negative result of the previous celiac antibody test.

      Gluten free vitamins

      Hashimoto diagnosed over 20 years ago after my daughter was diagnosed and told me to get checked due to similar symptoms. Diabetes diagnosed same time. Exocrine pancreatic insufficiency this past summer. Celiac last Wednesday. Have been having the digestive issues for a couple of years, several doctors--thought we had it solved with the Creon. Then symptoms...

      Diabetes and Hashimoto's as well, huh? You are the epitome of the autoimmune cascade effect. That is, once you get one autoimmune condition you tend to develop others. But I am curious. In the sequence of these several autoimmune diagnoses, where did the celiac diagnosis come? You certainly have a lot of health issues to juggle.

      Hashimoto diagnosed over 20 years ago after my daughter was diagnosed and told me to get checked due to similar symptoms. Diabetes diagnosed same time. Exocrine pancreatic insufficiency this past summer. Celiac last Wednesday. Have been having the digestive issues for a couple of years, several doctors--thought we had it solved with the Creon. Then symptoms got worse. I have a theory about that. I have a stricture in my esophagus that has to be dilated every 6-8 months. When it is tight, I have trouble swallowing. Bread is one of the harder things to swallow, so I avoid it. Had the stricture stretched end of October and started eating bread again. That's about when the diarrhea, bloating, gas, and pain started getting worse. Went in for another upper endoscopy and dilation of stricture last week. (It had been so tight this time, he scheduled a second dilation one month after the first.)  I told him how miserable I'd been, and he did the small intestine biopsy. I know they did the blood test for celiac about a year or more ago trying to find source of my problems,  and it was negative.
