I'm here in Virginia and we have a supermarket called Ukrops. I have noticed that they have an entire section on gluten-free products... entrees, flours, pastas, treats... it's just fabulous!! They are also less than a mile away!! Do supermarkets in your area have the same?

Some Krogers have the same, but not as good as Ukrops.

In case you didn't know, Ukrops also has a gluten-free list of products online. I live in Roanoke. I wish we'd get Ukrops here.

It really is nice having a company that is so helpful with heath concerns.

Do you know you have a good support group in Richmond? It's the West End GIG. I actually came to Richmond for one of their meetings (and to in-laws) when the president of GIG was speaking. Here's e-mail for one of the organizers. Her name is Anna Ashworth.

I thought I heard of one, but couldn't remember where it was. Thank you... I will definitely contact them! West End is pretty close by.

ps... I'm waiting on going gluten-free until after some more tests and the wedding.

Fairways (huge store) has regular food downstairs and an organic/gluten-free section on the second floor--it's fabulous.....huge selection and since it's a grocery store, not a healthfood store, the prices are so much better! :D

The two Wegmans near here, have Health Food sections with gluten free foods. The "super" one having more.

They are in NY, I know. Maybe NJ too. Not sure about where else though.

Hi everyone,

Just an FYI about Jone's sausage. All brands, except for the maple flavored and the pork/bacon flavored are gluten-free. The two exceptions don't have gluten listed in the ingredients and my grandson and I wound up being pretty sick for a day or so after eating the pork/bacon links. I was pretty peeved when I called their 800# to find out that yes, indeed, they do contain gluten even though it's not listed on the package. I hope that the gluten-free labeling law gets passed, write your congressman!

Though.. I don't think it takes effect till 2006? Could be wrong there.

      Celiac for dummies

      I was just diagnosed at 26 after accidental finding. Any simple tips for newbies? Things a non celiac would never think of? I already went through my prescriptions and identified some medications that have gluten. Is there a beginners guide? Celiac for dummies?

      Wow! Thank you @trents I really appreciate the responses. This line of diagnosis has me questioning a lot of symptoms over the course of my life. Very validating and very much a bummer at the same time.

      Wow! You're pretty young to have a diagnosis of SMA syndrome. But youth also has its advantages when it comes to healing, without a doubt. You might be surprised to find out how your health improves and how much better you feel once you eliminate gluten from your diet. Celiac disease is an autoimmune disorder that, when gluten is consumed, triggers an attack on the villous lining of the small bowel. This is the section of the intestines where all our nutrition is absorbed. It is made up of billions of tiny finger-like projections that create a tremendous surface area for absorbing nutrients. For the person with celiac disease, unchecked gluten consumption generates inflammation that wears down these fingers and, over time, greatly reduces the nutrient absorbing efficiency of the small bowel lining. This can generate a whole host of other nutrient deficiency related medical problems. We also now know that the autoimmune reaction to gluten is not necessarily limited to the lining of the small bowel such that celiac disease can damage other body systems and organs such as the liver and the joints and cause neurological problems.  It can take around two years for the villous lining to completely heal but most people start feeling better well before then. It's also important to realize that celiac disease can cause intolerance to some other foods whose protein structures are similar to gluten. Chief among them are dairy and oats but also eggs, corn and soy. Just keep that in mind.
