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!

      But you haven't yet answered my question about how sensitive to you are to minor amounts of gluten.

      @Healthierbody2026, as I said above, there is not a separate forum within this community for NCGS people and I do not know of one anywhere else. You sound uncertain whether your physician ordered blood tests for celiac disease or for diabetes. Do you have access online to your medical records and test results?

      @trents first response: can you direct me to that particular section of this site for NCGS or and are there any groups I can join for people with NCGS? second response: I can’t really remember due to it was some or a few years back but I believe she did blood tests or work on me or I think she did a glucose test on me.

      There is not a distinct section in this particular online resource and community devoted to those with NCGS. And I cannot say with any certainty whether or not such a thing exists elsewhere online. But your question makes me think celiac.com might entertain the idea of starting a forum within our community for that purpose. I should explain that celiac.com...

And I cannot say with any certainty whether or not such a thing exists elsewhere online. But your question makes me think celiac.com might entertain the idea of starting a forum within our community for that purpose. I should explain that celiac.com is divided into a number of separate forums, each devoted to a different topic or concern within the gluten intolerant/gluten sensitive population. Having said that, the main is on those with celiac disease (or their support systems) rather than those with NCGS because it has more serious long-term health implications. I see. Can you elaborate on how you were tested to arrive at this diagnosis?
