Message from the Organizing Committee

XII International Celiac Disease Symposium 2006

November 9-11, 2006

Registration Available in Jan. 2006

Hilton New York

1335 Avenue of the Americas

New York, NY

Celiac disease will take center stage in New York City as the Celiac Disease Center at Columbia University hosts the XII International Celiac Disease Symposium 2006, which will bring an unprecedented opportunity for each of you to help shape the future of celiac disease by participating in the symposium, November 9-11, 2006 at the Hilton NY Hotel, New York City. We invite you to participate in this unique and important world gathering, confident that together we can profoundly improve the lives of celiac patients around the globe.

The symposium is expected to attract healthcare industry leaders, clinicians, nutritionists, diagnostic and pharmaceutical executives, scientists, policy makers, patients and journalists and will touch on every aspect of adult and pediatric celiac disease – diagnosis, treatment, business development, science and public policy and has emerged as the single most important forum for bringing together the players who will determine the nature of celiac disease and its impact on patients around the globe.

Over the next few months, you'll find sessions, speakers, workshops, registration, sponsorship opportunities, exhibiting information, descriptions of the events and activities, housing and on our lineup of spectacular receptions in New York City online at www.celiacdiseasecenter.org. We believe this is by far the richest program and the most compelling showcase for celiac disease ever hosted.

Most importantly, it's the energy and intelligence of our speakers, exhibitors and attendees that we're counting on to bring this program to life. We look forward to seeing you there!

With best wishes,

2006 Organizing Committee

I heard about it last year and got the notice in the mail a few weeks ago. In my own city--and it starts on a Thursday... and I'm in school for 2 of the 3 days. I'm crushed.

YAY! It sounds really interesting and fun.

If anyone goes, tell me about it. It's basically the biggest conference that exists... takes place around the world... Ireland last year.

celiac3270, won't your parents let you off from school for that?

It's mainly that my SCHOOL wouldn't let me off from school--I'll undoubtedly have many tests and they wouldn't consider it a legitimate excuse. People are rarely absent and you can only miss school for a school-related issue (i.e. debate team leaving early for an away tournament).

Bummer. When I was in school all it took was a note from the parents and they had to let you go.

I did it to keep the topic at the view new posts part for the rest of the time before the early regiestration dates go out so new people on the site would see this, and i didn't want to start a new topic cause we already had one going.

Bumping this up....so who is going?

I believe that I am going! I think Jillian (jkmunchkin) said she might go, also. Who else? I'd love to meet up with others.

I'm also going to see Dr. Leo Galland in NYC while I'm there....he specializes in integrative medicine and leaky gut/food intolerances. Since I'm having so many food issues, I figured I'd see him and do the Celiac conference while I'm there. But I can't partake in all the gluten free delights at the conference though...booo.

Write back if you are going so we can get together!

      It’s incredibly frustrating when specialists don’t grasp the urgency of worsening symptoms, especially when neurological involvement is at play.

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Living or working in environments where gluten exposure is a constant risk can be incredibly challenging, especially when neurological symptoms are involved. For those with celiac disease or severe gluten-related disorders, airborne gluten (like flour dust in kitchens or shared workspaces) can trigger indirect exposure through inhalation or cross-contact, though true celiac reactions typically require ingestion. However, non-celiac gluten sensitivity (NCGS) or wheat allergy can sometimes cause airborne-triggered respiratory or neurological symptoms (e.g., headaches, brain fog, or even seizure-like episodes in rare cases). Your focal seizure could stem from chronic inflammation, vagus nerve irritation, or neuroglial activation if accidental ingestion occurred—but it’s also worth exploring PTSD-related responses if anxiety around exposure is severe. Many with celiac report delayed neurological symptoms (hours to days later), making it hard to pinpoint triggers. Since your family isn’t gluten-free, shared kitchens may pose risks (e.g., crumbs, toaster use, or cookware residue). Suggestions: Workplace Safety: If airborne flour was a factor, request accommodations (e.g., ventilation, PPE) under disability protections—though proving causality is tough. Medical Follow-Up: Push for neurological testing (EEG, MRI) to rule out other causes, and consider a gluten-free household trial to see if symptoms improve. It’s unfair you were let go without clearer answers. Keep documenting symptoms and exposures.

      Refractory celiac disease

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      It’s incredibly frustrating when specialists don’t grasp the urgency of worsening symptoms, especially when neurological involvement is at play. For refractory celiac disease (RCD) diagnosis in Adelaide, your best bet is to seek out a gastroenterologist with specific expertise in complex celiac cases. Consider reaching out to: The Royal Adelaide Hospital’s Gastroenterology Department (ask for clinicians affiliated with celiac research or autoimmune disorders). A university teaching hospital (e.g., specialists at the University of Adelaide’s medical network often handle refractory cases). Celiac Australia’s clinician directory (they may have vetted specialists familiar with RCD). Since your symptoms are escalating, emphasize the neurological progression (e.g., neuropathy, ataxia) when booking appointments—this often flags urgency. You might also request repeat biopsies, TTG-IgA testing, and HLA-DQ2/DQ8 gene testing to rule out complications like RCD Type 2 or overlap conditions (e.g., gluten ataxia). If local options fall short, telehealth consults with celiac-focused centers in Melbourne or Sydney (e.g., The Alfred, RPAH) could provide second opinions. Keep advocating for yourself—you deserve answers. We also have a ton of articles on refractory celiac disease here: https://www.celiac.com/celiac-disease/celiac-disease-amp-related-diseases-and-disorders/refractory-celiac-disease-collagenous-sprue/

      Welcome to the gluten-free lifestyle! It’s great to hear that eliminating gluten has already helped with your fibromyalgia symptoms—that’s a huge win in just three weeks. Mistakes happen (especially when traveling!), so don’t be too hard on yourself. Each slip-up is a learning experience. The following two lists are very helpful for anyone who is gluten sensitive and needs to avoid gluten when shopping. It's very important to learn to read labels and understand sources of hidden gluten, and to know some general information about product labelling--for example in the USA if wheat is a possible allergen it must be declared on a product's ingredient label like this: Allergens: Wheat.
