Hey, I don't know about support groups there, but I do know that there is a gluten free restuarant in Greenwich Village. called Risotteria owned bya Joe Pace. So that might be helpful.

I ate at Risotteria for the first time a few weeks ago. Fantastic food.

ALSO FOR LONG ISLANDERS:

gluten-free Italian Restaurant in Bellmore:

Cafe Baldo

located on Jerusalem Ave (Route 105)

About a mile, maybe mile and a half west of Wantagh Ave.

gluten-free Pizza

gluten-free Calzones!!!

gluten-free Pasta

Garlic Knots!!!

HUGE assortment of gluten-free desserts too!!

I went there for the first time the other day, got a gluten-free Calzone

I could cry from how good it was to eat Calzone again

and it was great too....

ALSO - NEARBY

On Wantagh Ave

Just north of 105 and south of the Southern State

tucked into a corner next to a diner (across from a big shopping center)

is a health food store

with the biggest selection of gluten-free ready-made stuff I have ever seen

Bagels, bread, pastas, frozen entrees, yummy desserts

Yeah...I might cry.

      Yes stress can .make the pain worse. That being said it is taking years for my body to heal. I am not able to eat out as 98 % of restaurants do not know how to cook for celiacs.  I only eat out on special occasions. Any time I eat gluten I feel there is a tourch going through my digestive system specifically in the area you have mentioned.  Like where the deudenal is . I am very sensitive to cross contamination so any small amount of gluten makes me sick.

      @Ems10, celiac diagnosis normally involves two steps. The first one is serum antibody testing which you may have already have had done and are waiting on the results. The second step involves and endoscopy (aka, gastroscopy) with biopsy of the small bowel lining. This second step is typically ordered if one or more antibody tests were positive, is a confirmation of the serum antibody testing and is considered the gold standard diagnostic test for celiac disease. Now hear this, you should not be eating gluten free weeks or months in advance of either kind of testing. Prematurely going on a gluten free diet can and will sabotage the results of the endoscopy/biopsy should you get a referral to a GI doc who would want to do that. Eliminating gluten from the diet causes causes inflammation to subside which allows the small bowel ling to heal such that the damage they would be looking for is no longer there.

      Approximately 10x more people have non-celiac gluten sensitivity than have celiac disease, but there isn’t yet a test for NCGS. If your symptoms go away on a gluten-free diet it would likely signal NCGS.

      It might make sense for you to find out if they've run a celiac disease test on you, and if not, consider planning for it.

      Thanks for your reply! I’m really not too sure, the doctor just took a few tubes of blood & that’s all I know 🥹
