I just wanted to let anyone know who lives in MA that The Wine Shop of Reading now carries Ramapo Valley beer. It is right on Rte. 28 in Reading. I asked if they could start carrying it and they did.

So anyone in the area check it out!!

There is a Legal Seafood at the Burlington Mall...also an Outback in Burlington...

That would be great to meet up for dinner sometime..

Any suggestions??

I'm definitely in -

just tell me when and where -

I don't know about everyone else, but after work is best for me...

but I could come down on a weekend as well

so how will we recognize each other? Do we paint big gluten-free signs on our chest?? :lol:

I think they have t-shirts with the logo "Gluten-free or Bust!"..perhaps we can purchase those! ;)

I'm in...my schedule sucks but tell me where and when and I'll do everything possible to be there.

Burlington sounds good to me.

I would love to meet some celiac sisters!! It is so hard when you are the only one in the family and in your group of friends that is gluten free. To have everyone at the table be gluten free would be awsome!!

I hope I didn't scare anyone off with my great enthusiasm!!

I am not afraid! :P

Okay so here goes...first gluten-free beer ever is in my hand, and I'm about to take the first sip...

I'm nervous as all hell because I LOVED beer prior to my dx. And I'm not talking Bud Light -

I specifically loved IPA's because of their tasty hops...I see the word "lager" on the Ramapo bottle -

SCARY - never did like lagers...but...here goes...

well, as I suspected it's sweet <_< - especially the aftertaste

I'm not sure how I feel about it...guess I'll have to drink this one and have another just to make sure how I feel! :lol:

Alright guys just tell me where to be and when -

France, why don't you tell us what a good time for you is and perhaps we can schedule it for then!

I wish I could get it in my area, would be nice on a hot day and a BBQ :D

Are you drinking on the job over there? ;)

My schedule is pretty free...not much on the agenda during the week after work...

So I am very flexible!

Oh the burlington mall is only 20mins away from me. I would love to come too, anyone has a suggestion for the day or time?

HA! No, No...not sure why I said I posted at 2:30 or whatever, but I was at home and it was near 7.

Although a liquid lunch is not unheard of at times.... :)

How about next Friday, the 12th, after work, say around 6 for those of us that are nearby and others can filter in as they arrive? I really, really hate the Outback - I think their food is dreadful but I can always make do. Someone said there is also a legal Seafoods around? Does everyone like seafood?

I do think we should make reservations, yes? So...let's see what everyone thinks!

Guest BERNESES

I like the Ramapo because it's BEER, but it's a little too sweet. I like amber beers like Red tail and I love Once in a Blue Moon Pumpkin ale, Sierra Nevada. i have to say Bard's Tale was the BEST- not just a good gluten-free beer, but a good beer. Period.

Legal wouold be great. I have $100 in gift certificates to Legal because the one in Peabody screwed me up. But i've never had problems with Burlington so some of dinner is on me! Plus, the malls up here in NH stink so Burlington is always a good excuse for me to go on a Sephora splurge. I'm pretty flexible. Next wweek, Monday night is out because I teach but I think I'm pretty open Tuesday-Thursday. The week after that i'm having my gall bladder out so I'd have to wait until after the 23rd.

Let me know what you guys think? It'd be fun!

Next friday the 12th around 6 should work for me. the Outback is OK but I do have the $100 towards Legal which i would LOVE to share with me celiac sisters. :)

I know I said I was flexible...but I actually have plans Thursday and Friday the 11th and 12th..

Honestly, I am usually at home on my brown couch everynight after work! ;)

If the 12th works for all of you...hopefully we can do this again...

Maybe try to do it once a month!

francelajoie Explorer

OK, so Burlington Legal Seafoods Friday May 12th at 6:00?

Is that good with everybody?

I will make it for sure...just will leave my work (if you want to call it work) early.

Oh I see one can't make it...how about the 19th?

Ok, thats 2

19th works for me!

Ok, you guys are really going to hate me now! I did not want to have to say it, but I have a colonoscopy the morning of the 19th...not that it matters what we say to fellow celiacs when it comes to our health problems! So I won't be in work and won't be able to drive that whole day...

Can we do something the following week? From Berneses post, the 19th will be bad for her as well...

So maybe we can do something on Wed the 24th or Thurs the 25th(that Friday will be the start of Memorial weekend, so prob not a good time for anyone to meet up)...

Or you gals can all meet up on the 12th, as that works for everyone else and then we can try something for the four of us in June...

I might have to reneg that comment about being flexible! ;)

Sorry again for being a pain!

Guest BERNESES

yeah- I'm down from the 17th to the 24th- gall bladder removal. Blech! But you guys go ahead and then we'll make plans for later.

      Welcome to the forum, @Ben98! If you have been consciously or unconsciously avoiding gluten because of the discomfort it produces then it is likely that your blood antibody testing for celiac disease has been rendered invalid. Valid testing requires regular consumption of generous amounts of gluten. The other strong possibility is that you have NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity) which shares many of the same symptoms with celiac disease but does not have the autoimmune component and thus does not damage the small bowel lining. It is 10x mor common than celiac disease. There is currently no test for NCGS. Celiac disease must first be ruled out. Some experts in the field believe it can be a precursor to the development of celiac disease. Having one or both of the primary genes for developing celiac disease does not imply that you will develop active celiac disease. It simply establishes the potential for it. About 40% of the population has the genetic potential but only about 1% develop active celiac disease.

      TTG blood test and total IGA tested on many occasions which have always remained normal, upper GI pain under my ribs since 2022. I had an endoscopy in 2023 which showed moderate gastritis. no biopsy’s were taken unfortunately. genetic test was positive for HLADQ2. extreme bloating after eating gluten, it’ll feel like I’ve got bricks in my stomach so uncomfortably full. the pain is like a dull ache under the upper left almost like a stitch feeling after a long walk. I am just wanting some advice has anyone here experienced gastritis with a gluten issue before? thank you

      "Conclusions: The urinary iodine level was significantly lower in women with postmenopausal osteoporosis, and iodine replacement may be important in preventing osteoporosis"  Body iodine status in women with postmenopausal osteoporosis Low iodine can cause thyroid problems, but Iodine deficiency will not show up in thyroid tests.  Iodine is important for healing, its job is to kill off defective and aging cells (Apoptosis). Skin, brain fog, nails, muscle tone all inproved when I started taking 600 mcg (RDA 150 - 1000 mcg) of Liquid Iodine drops. Some with dermatitis herpetiformis, Iodine exacerbates the rash.  I started at 1 drop (50 mcg) and worked up to 12 drops, but I don't have dermatitis herpetiformis.

      Thank you so much for sharing your experience and I found myself giggling with happiness as I read how your body reached such spring! And I hope that your current journey is also successful!! Definitely starting the food diary! So many amazing advices. And it’s very scary. It really hits all our soft spots as well as our confidence system. Most doctors I went thought I was underage despite being in my late 20s. Right now I look like am I twelve, but is also this body that’s taking so much, so I might as well love it too! Going to make the necessary changes and stay in this path. Thank you again! 🫶
