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!

      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.
