I was in Florida but have moved. There is a great support group in Orlando! Look them up and try to go to a meeting, if you can. :)

I'm moving to Florida in a couple years; seeking friends in the meantime. I'm 30 and travel there often.

HI! I"m 28 in the Daytona Beach area. Have a 3 year old, and a 5 year old. Waiting on test results to come back next week. Have been gluten-free for 2 weeks now. Was also on Dr. Phil in Sept, and if it wasn't for all his show has done for me, I would have NEVER known!

I can't find any support groups in the area and thinking about starting one.

I'm 26 and I live in Orlando. Has anyone tried dating after being diagnosed? I've heard horror stories about kissing a guy after he had a few beers and then being sick...I'm unsure how paranoid I need to be in that aspect. Any tips?

Also, if anyone has any questions about eating out in the Orlando area, especially Disney, please don't hesitate to contact me! I've been living here for almost 2 years now, so I've had a good chance to scope out some favorite restaurants. :)

jparsick84, you don't have to be that paranoid in my opinion -- of course, we all have differing levels of sensitivity and you will hear of people that do not worry about such things and people that would never dream of kissing someone who had had a beer. I make my husband rinse his mouth out after beer, and brush his teeth after eating gluten. I haven't ever gotten sick from kissing him. :)

I can vouch for the kissing thing, IT SUCKS!!!!!!!!!!!!, I guess everyone is different though, but one night I kissed a guy after he had eaten pizza a few hours earlier and I still got glutened... I read in a book somewhere that if you are dating a not gluten free person make sure they brush there teeth before you ever kiss them to avoid the horrible consequences.

I'm Christy, from the Tallahassee area and have been gluten free since September of 2010. I was diagnosed a few years after a family member found out she had it. Just wanted to say hello!

Hi, My name is Laura I live in Cocoa Fl. My Son who is 14 almost died of type 1 Diabetes, I went to the library to get info on Diabetes and a cook book, in the same area I found a book for ADHD & Autism cookbook going gluten free and casein free which my second son is very hyper with low concentration? So I picked up that book too, to my realization all the symtoms that were described in the book was what I myself was feeling... So being un-employed with no insurance I went on an internet scout of my own and found some very interesting and scary facts about type 1 Diabetes and Celiac Disease. After a day of information overload, I went to my cabinet and filled three boxes full of food and frozen foods that I imediately gave away went to the store to see what I and my family can eat. I bought bread flour and all the other things that I could imediately eat and fix for dinner. From that day on which has been two weeks now, I can get out of bed without feeling bad and I have eaten food that does not make my stomach hurt, and I do remember things now. Not sure if I am Coeliac or not but the whole Me is much better. I told my ex to take my oldest son to the Dr. to get the test ( he has insurance for him ) hopefully he will, have not heard or not. Thanks for the vent session. If there is anyone out there with input or more info that will help feel free to let me know...

I have lived in Florida off and on since 1970. I have found gluten-free foods to be more accessible than ever.

Just so you know, you are replying to a post that is old---(Dec. 2010) and the person may not see your reply.

      Constant low back, abdominal and pelvic pain!

      I agree christina, there is definitely many contributing factors! I have the pain today, my pelvis, hips and thighs ache! No idea why. But i have been sitting at work for 3 days so im thinking its my back. This disease is very mysterious (and frustrating) but not always to blame for every pain.

      Why?

      "her stool study showed she had extreme reactions to everything achievement on it long course of microbials to treat that." The wording of this part of the sentence does not make any sense at all. I don't mean to insult you, but is English your first language? This part of the sentence sounds like it was generated by translation software.

      Why?

      What kind of stool test was done? Can you be more specific?

      Why?

      Perhaps I should also have said that in addition to showing a very high response to gluten, her stool study showed that she had extreme reactions to everything achievement on it long course of microbials to treat that.

      My daughter has celiac disease and has had for a long time. She fell loses strictly gluten-free diet and recently got rid of all cutting boards in any gluten in her house at all. She just had a stool test and it came back showing of gigantic response to gluten in her diet. What could be going on since she doesn't eat any gluten and is very careful about any...
