Would love to find a few fellow celiacs to navigate the DC food scene with me. Maybe a monthly dinner group? Write me!

Hey, we live in Fairfax, VA and I am trying to find some fellow dinners, if you will....let me tell you, I have not even been officially diagnosed yet, however I have learned so much so far about allergies. It is difficult because we use to eat out almost every day.....so it is a change to say the least. I would love to chat.

I live in Burke, VA. New to all of this. I spent the weekend looking for gluten-free stuff at local stores. Wegmans seemed to have the most friendly labeling but I haven't tried any of it.

Did you guys get a dinner group going? I live in Laurel. I was diagnosed just a few weeks ago. The support group in Annapolis sometimes does lunch together, but I don't think I've heard about a local group getting together for dinner.

I live in Falls Church, VA and was diagnosed two years ago after having three blood tests done with celiac disease. I stayed in denial for a very long time and keep eating what I wanted to eat, including pizza, hot dogs (the buns) etc. Eventually just got tired of the pain in my joints, gut, discomfort, sadness etc, so about a month ago I completley stopped eating anything with wheat rye or barley. I feel so much better now, and I am off the meds now the doctor was giving for the pain I was experencing and that is wonderful. Me and my fiance (she has IBS) are always looking for restrurants that we can go to in the area, places to buy gluten free stuff etc. so I wanted to send you a quick hello, because I would very much want to meet/talk to others in the area that have gluten intolerance as I do. With this diet we need all the group support we can get. I wish there was some kind of meeting every week/month that people in the area could attend. Hope to talk to you soon!

      KAN-101 Treatment for Coeliac Disease

      By Russ H · Posted

      This treatment looks promising. Its aim is to provoke immune tolerance of gluten, possibly curing the disease. It passed the phase 2 trial with flying colours, and I came across a post on Reddit by one of the study volunteers. Apparently, the results were good enough that the company is applying for fast track approval.  Anokion Announces Positive Symptom Data from its Phase 2 Trial Evaluating KAN-101 for the Treatment of Celiac Disease https://www.reddit.com/r/Celiac/comments/1krx2wh/kan_101_trial_put_on_hold/

      Gluten related ??

      By Colleen H · Posted

      Hi everyone  This has been a crazy year so far... How many people actually get entire sensory overload from gluten or something similar ?  My jaw is going nuts ..and that nerve is affecting my upper back and so on ...  Bones even hurt.  Brain fog. Etc  I had eggs seemed fine.   Then my aid cooked a chicken stir fry in the microwave because my food order shorted a couple key items .   I was so hungry but I noticed light breading and some ingredients with SOY !!! Why are we suffering with soy ? This triggered a sensitivity to bananas and gluten-free yogurt it seems like it's a cycle that it goes on.  The tiniest amount of something gets me I'm guessing the tiny bit of breading that I took one tiny nibble of ...yikes ..im cringing from it .. Feels like my stomach is going to explode yet still very hungry 😔  How long does this last?! Thank you so much

      Celiac getting dentures

      By gfmom06 · Posted

      I have had orthodontic work done. The 3M invisalign material was no problem. BUT my retainers are another matter. They seemed okay for a few months. Now, however, they cause a burning sensation on my tongue, gums and insides of my lips. The burning sensation is now spreading to my throat. I notice it when I breathe. This is annoying and interferes with my enjoyment of eating. I am visiting with my provider tomorrow. We'll see where this goes from here.
