Any Celiacs Near Denver, Colorado?

Hi all!

 

Anyone living in or near Denver? I'm a recently diagnosed celiac, just 4 months into the gluten-free thing. Still struggling, frustrated, feeling discouraged about ever being able to eat outside my house again. It would be nice to have a group of friends nearby who can share the same experiences. :-)

Have you googled "celiac support Denver"  I'm sure there is a group.  You live in a great area for gluten-free eating.  My son is at CSU.  We like Beau Jos for pizza.  There are all the usual good Celiac friendly places like Outback Steak, Bonefish Grill, Pf Changs, Pei Wei (? not sure if its in CO).  And a bunch more.  

 

There is someone who just mentioned a pizza place in Co Springs.  I think they have a Denver location.

Thanks Kareng, I did look that up and found the Denver Metro Celiac Support Chapter. Unfortunately, it doesn't look like they are very active, they show no meetings, classes or event through April 15th. I didn't think it would be so difficult finding other celiacs here - like you said, it's a very supportive area for gluten free eating. I even tried starting a meetup group, but got no interest. All the Colorado celiacs must still be in the closet - come out out! :-)

Looks like they meet every other month and have a meeting tonight.

I didn't see that, thanks. Unfortunately, Englewood is at least 45 minutes away, and by the time I get off work tonight, I'd miss most of the meeting. Ah well, maybe in two months....

 

In the meantime and in between time, any local celiacs that want to get together, I sure would like to find them! :-)

Hey Tonalynn, I live in Golden, CO and I was just looking today for local celiacs support groups. Did you ever find anything here in town?

      CT with contrast.

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      They may want to also eliminate other possible causes for your symptoms/issues and are doing additional tests.  Here is info about blood tests for celiac disease--if positive an endoscopy where biopsies of your intestinal villi are taken to confirm is the typical follow up.

      New labs are now very elevated

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      In the Europe the new protocol for making a celiac disease diagnosis in children is if their tTg-IgA (tissue transglutaminase IgA) levels are 10 times or above the positive level for celiac disease--and you are above that level. According to the latest research, if the blood test results are at certain high levels that range between 5-10 times the reference range for a positive celiac disease diagnosis, it may not be necessary to confirm the results using an endoscopy/biopsy: Blood Test Alone Can Diagnose Celiac Disease in Most Children and Adults TGA-IgA at or Above Five Times Normal Limit in Kids Indicates Celiac Disease in Nearly All Cases No More Biopsies to Diagnose Celiac Disease in Children! May I ask why you've had so many past tTg-IgA tests done, and many of them seem to have been done 3 times during short time intervals?

      Chances of being coeliac

      @JettaGirl, "Coeliac" is the British spelling of "celiac". Same disease.

      This may sound ridiculous but is this supposed to say Celiacs? I looked up Coeliacs because you never know, there’s a lot of diseases related to a disease that they come up with similar names for. It’s probably meant to say Celiacs but I just wanted to confirm.

      I was told it was to see how much damage has been caused. But just told CT with contrast not any other name for it.
