I live in Central, SC, and have been looking for a group. I haven't found one yet. Maybe we could start our own?

not aware of any groups since I am not up there all the time. We have a house on hwy 11 outside Walhalla. If you haven't been to the new market up by the Cliff's communities (about 15 miles east of Walhalla) they have a better than average selection of Gluten Free Products.

I realize your message is pretty old but if you do find one in the Clemson area let me know please.

regards

We have a Celiac Support Group that meets the second Thursday of each month, in Greenville, at the Earth Faire health food store, 7 - 8 PM. That's located at Pelham Road and I-85 North, it's Exit 54. Coming from the south, turn left off the exit onto Pelham Rd., cross over the interstate, go about 2 blocks and the Earth Faire shopping center is on the left.

That's a straight shot up I-85 from Seneca and Clemson. This group had it's second meeting on May 8th. There was good information and support, there. The next meeting will be June 12th.

In the Upstate, the Publix and the Ingles grocery stores print a list of all gluten free store brands. Makes it much easier to shop! The group is putting together a list of gluten-free/Friendly restaurants. Also doing lists for dietician, MD, etc., for medical support.

Hi LindaJean,

Thanks for the information. I have had 2 blood tests that show an indication for Celiac. I am working on getting a gastro appointment to follow up further. I am a little stressed out over the potential diagnosis so it is nice to know that there is a meeting nearby with people going through the same thing.

Could you please let me know when the next meeting will be?

I appreciate all the help I can get right now as I navigate through the newness of this. Thanks!

      Desperately need a vitamin D supplement. I've reacted to most brands I've tried.

      Im very big on nateral remedies and just read that my go to herb is a no no and was wondering if factual or fiction. I read on Google, I know don't read or take to heart, however it stated that Echinacea isn't good for those with compromise autoimmune because it can cause inflammation. Has anyone else heard of this?Ive been battling sibo so wondering if any connection though haven't been religious on my vitamins these last several months because of testing ect.Sibo medications im allergic,the last few prescribed. Gi  dr dropped me but took me back.Im frustrated too but its the autoimmune part .

      Pardon me, I stand corrected.  I did find yet another blood test for thyroid function. TSH W/REFLEX TO FT4:  2.91 mIU/L  (Range: 0.40 - 4.50) As you can see, I was within the acceptable range when the test was performed.

      I am curious: What was your initial level at? How many daily IUs were you taking via supplements and for how long? What did your level drop to? How many daily IUs are you taking now via supplements? Regards, Known1

      Ive been dealing with skin issues and been told it was staph because I was employed as a bus driver during that horrid time that im still actively healing from currently years later. Biopsies they don't want to say its inconclusive they say.Their creams don't work.I do notice Yarrow Pom from Doterra works but of course thats expensive.Prayers

      Welcome to the celiac.com community @MoniqueCham! Celiac disease damages the villous lining of the small bowel but, as far as I know, doesn't affect the underlying smooth muscle tissue of the bowel.
