Hi ME&ME,

Indy has a local support group. Here is there website:

Open Original Shared Link

Take a look around, there is a lot of good information. They also hold beginner's meetings (schedule is on the site). They meet on the north side (Carmel) in the new Clarion building at 116th and Meridian.

In addition, this forum is also a great place for info.

I was recently diagnosed with celiac disease and I feel the same way. Are you in Indianapolis?

I'm newly diagnosed too. I'm in Indy (Fishers). I just met a neighbor who has it as well. My hubby and I are planning a nice night out tomorrow for our anniversary. We are going downtown to eat and stay at the Conrad, so I've been online trying to research accomodating restaurants. I ran across this board, and I was already a member of celiac.com. Nice to meet you! Always good to stay in touch with local people. Are any of you intolerant of everything? I really don't know how I'll eat anything...or drink anything. I wish now that it was JUST gluten that I had a problem with. Hang in there dude! I wish that I could go back to when I just had to avoid gluten, so if that's all that you have to avoid...PLEASE count your blessings! There are a lot of people on this site who can't eat anything without feeling sick. I know that doesn't help right now, and believe me...I go through my angry phases!!! Just realize that it could always be worse! If you guys want to talk, I will try to stay on here more!

Hello! I am from the Carmel area and have had Celiac for 12+ years now! I know how frustrating it can be, especially right now, as I am 7 1/2 weeks pregnant and SO sick anyways, and it actually takes me back to the days before being diagnosed with the constant stomach aches, and nausea. UGH! I hope you are able to find some people to reach out to and have talked to them...if not sounds like there are a few of us around here!!! Share your frustrations and vent away! It is hard when people do not understand! Nice to see you on here!

      @RMJ it makes sense as it’s something I’ve experienced more than once. Currently 24 weeks and baby is doing well! Will be seeking more medical advice today

      Thank you! This is great information and perfect timing because we have our first appointment for a second opinion tomorrow.

      Bright blood in the stool would indicate bleeding down at the lower end in the colorectal area as opposed to the small bowel below the stomach where celiac manifests damage to the villous lining. Are these blood stools persistent? It's not unusual for this to happen once in a while to most anyone when a small surface vessel breaks, kind of like a nose bleed. As Scott Adams said, you must continue to consume regular amounts of gluten if the specialist will be doing additional testing for celiac disease, which could include an endoscopy with biopsy of the small bowel lining.

      Checkouts gluten-free recipes at twww.redstaryeast.com We tried a bread machine years ago and weren’t happy with results. Bread machines have pre-set rise & bake times.  Unfortunately, the program doesn’t adjust to slight differences when measuring, relative humidity or temperature of ingredients & in kitchens.  Lots of efforts for ONE odd- sized loaf that hard to cut into useable slices.  College-aged son found best use for bread machine was as heavy duty mixer that ‘kept dust in the box.’  He would pre-measure ingredients for 2-3 loaves & use machine mix up individual batches.      Since gluten-free bread needs  to rise only once, each recipe of dough went into a loaf pan. Pans sat counter to rise—time dependent of temp in kitchen. Then, baked in oven until he, not machine, decided it was done.     Took ~10 min extra up front to measure & mix additions but adds nothing to rise & bake times.     Loaves are great for slicing (Slice extra before freezing!). One mess to clean up, saves time & energy since you need to bake  as is half as often (If  you plan to bake lots more than bread, opt for KitchenAid/ heavy duty mixer instead.  Cover with dish towel to capture dust!)     Personally, I’m sure I had as a kid since I’ve never been a fan  of bread. .  Have been wrapping corn tortillas around things for 40+ years.  Can still get a dozen 12-pks of tortillas for same or less than price as 1 load of gluten-free bread. PLUS. the tortillas have more nutrients!

      Welcome to the forum. You are lucky because in Korean food, many classic meals such as bibimbap without sauce, barbecue meats and some kinds of soups generally do not have gluten. But it is a good idea to confirm with the restaurant workers for safety reasons. Regarding certain locations, I enjoy going to places such as Plant in Seoul and Sprout in Busan. Moreover, using applications like HappyCow or TripAdvisor can assist you to discover additional choices in the regions you plan to visit. One big tip: it is good to know some important Korean sentences, for example 'I cannot eat gluten' (geulluteuneul meogeul su eopseoyo)  or 'Does this have gluten?' (igeoe neun geulluteuni deureo innayo?) because they can be very helpful. If you are considering getting a local guide, I'd suggest this one https://gowithguide.com/korea They were very helpful when I needed to find places with gluten-free food options because they provide tours tailored to your preferences. Good luck with your travels! 🍻
