Hey, you San Diego folks....

Give me a holler. Diagnosed last week. Wheeee! I have discovered Pei Wei already =) but looking for other eats, events, etc. I was thoroughly traumatized last weekend on a two-day trip to Phoenix trying to eat out. *whew*! I've been to the support group site, but they meet pretty infrequently, and at times I can't usually make.

Anybody going to hit up whole foods next Saturday for gluten-free tasting?

Ok, back to studying my cookbooks intensely. :blink:

glad to see other san diego newbies...didn't know about the tasting, would enjoy the next one

I too am studying my new gluten-free manuals and made some fairly decent cookies yesterday...got to find a better flour for baking! Did see a recipe for making my own multi-purpose flour...going to try in the next few days.

Yay, three of us. =) haha...I'm sure there are more. I've picked up a couple of good cookbooks since my dx in February. Just went to Disneyland yesterday....they were AWESOME! They have a list of foods you can eat, and the chefs come out to talk to you when you request gluten free.

I had a bad experience at my last Pei Wei outing =( but, I'm considering trying PF changs. I've heard good things about them recently! Shopping at Henry's has been great, too now that they have gluten-free labels up.

I'm considering going up to the Celiac conference in Pasadena next month since it's so close.... Open Original Shared Link

      Refractory or super sensitive?

      Not being able to implement all elements of a discipline does not necessarily mean going through with the rest of it will not benefit you.

      2 months in... struggling with symptoms

      By aperlo34 · Posted

      Hi everyone, 29 years old, got my diagnosis in September. This has been the longest 2 months of my life. This was my first real dx and I wasn't having much for symptoms before (1x bad constipation, irregular BM schedule). I struggle with pretty bad health anxiety and I've been freaking out pretty consistently for 4+months (when I was told I needed a colonoscopy).  Basically since the colonoscopy was ordered in July, I started having small muscle twitching all over - this comes and goes but it's about 1 or 2 twitches every minute or so. I've also been super active this summer, riding 4k miles on my bike and accidentally losing 20lbs which I didn't really need to do. Since gluten free I've been all over the place diet/fitness/sleep wise and have had all sorts of weird symptoms: muscle twitching since July sinus(?) headaches since September extremely tired since October Dry eyes for the last 2 weeks worsening headaches in the morning especially and in the back of head/sinus area stiffness in body/neck/hands/joints general shakiness/weakness Vitamins levels from last week: Magnesium 2.3 (ref 1.6-2.3) B12 406 (ref 232-1245) Vit D 43.6 (ref 40-100) Folate 11.4 Glucose 84 (ref 70-99) Ferritin 117 (ref 30-400) Iron Sat 48 (ref 15-55) It's hard for me to know what is and isn't celiac related, and every rabbit hole I go down online leads me to horrible places. I'm just hoping there is some sort of light at the tunnel and that one day I'm going to feel better. I felt great until this diagnosis (as far as I could tell). Does anyone have any experience being relatively asymptomatic and then feeling like complete trash after gluten-free?    Thank you so much.

      I was checking aip diet and discovered that aspirin is prohibited. I definitely can understand why that is but my cardio dr says to stay on it. So aip is done before I even get started.

      How to choose a Naturopath for 6yr old

      You are more than welcome.  I think there are quite a lot of different types out there, my own nutritionist was a v. highly qualified scientist as well, but at least you can see what qualifications they are which seem to be quite well stated.  I wish you all well on your son's coeliac journey.

      Thanks for the info @knitty kitty! I really appreciate when people recommend things for me to try, it helps a lot! I will run this stuff by my doctor at my next appointment next week. It is also good to know I am not alone with the continued reactions though. It has been pretty difficult for me and has taken a bit of a toll on my mental health. Trying so hard and dedicating so much time to resolve this issue just to feel like I am running around in circles. But i'm glad to get some insight from people who have experienced the same thing. My family and friends just keep saying i'm crazy andthat i'm a hypochondriac. But the only thing that has gotten me this far in my journey and this close to figuring it out is not listening to them and believing in myself.
