Need Support Group In Miami


mart

Recommended Posts

Help! My 7 year old son was recently diagnosed with celiac disease and I can't seem to get any reliable information. His gastroenterologist doesn't know anything about the gluten-free diet, and we can't get in to see the nutritionist for another 2 months. I heard the best thing to do was find a support group. I can't seem to find one in the Miami area, hard as I look. In the meantime, my poor baby looks like he's starving. Three weeks into the gluten-free diet he's still complaining of stomach pain. I need to know what products I can really trust to be gluten-free. Any info would be so appreciated. :blink:

it would be amazing to me if there wasn't a group in miami too! i searched around and couldn't find one though. these links below list others in florida--maybe you could go to another close by at least once for help...then try and start a group locally--put in add in the paper, contact other group leaders etc. ? Ck out the first link though--it has a group in N Miami Beach.

Ms. Sillyak Screwed has a support group that meets in Pompano Beach, FL (about 1 hour north of Miami). It meets at a luthern church. They have a site I think it's like southfloridaceliacs or something. Maybe you can google it or look Ms Sillyak Screwed on here.

      You can search this site for prescriptions medications, but will need to know the manufacturer/maker if there is more than one, especially if you use a generic version of the medication: To see the ingredients you will need to click on the correct version of the medication and maker in the results, then scroll down to "Ingredients and Appearance" and click it, and then look at "Inactive Ingredients," as any gluten ingredients would likely appear there, rather than in the Active Ingredients area. https://dailymed.nlm.nih.gov/dailymed/

      One positive blood test result means you likely have celiac disease, but to confirm it they may want to do an endoscopy to verify it with biopsies. Unless you have severe symptoms now, you likely should continue eating gluten daily until all testing is completed, and should eat tons of gluten daily in the 2 weeks before an endoscopy.

      Be sure to look at the inactive ingredients, as it might still be naturally gluten-free.
