Which direction do you live from LAX? I'm a little over an hour away in Iowa. I don't know of any support groups, but there are a few people around my community that would probably talk with you. Of course I'll talk as well. Drop me a line.

I live North/west of LAX....in Tomah. My Dr and I have not sat down and talked about all of this yet. She's waiting until my biopsy is done....then we'll chat. So the only info I have is that I have tested very positive in blood tests. That is the only gripe I have with my doc is that she told me I have celiac and then said don't research it until after the biopsy. Which I said no way...knowledge is power!!!!!

I found the following information about a LAX support group from the website Open Original Shared Link .... This site has a list of all of the other Celiac support groups across the state, if you're interested. I'm from Madison, so I'm not really knowledgable on the LAX group, but I'm pretty sure a lot of the groups across the state stay in touch with each other. The group in Madison is really great! Hope this helps! :)

      Help figuring out stomach pain

      By lizzie42 · Posted

      Her poop is totally normal since going gluten free. Once or twice per day.  She eats a lot of fruits and veggies. No juice. She said the squeezing is in the spot where her food goes in her belly. Definitely not dehydrated. She drinks tons of water.

      Confused about my results

      Hurrah for an official diagnosis!   You may want to put the whole family on gluten free, as a preventative measure for the ones not testing positive right now.  Remember, exposure to gluten triggers the Celiac genes your kids have inherited from you.  Keeping them gluten free now, even though they don't test positive right now, can delay triggering Celiac Disease development in them.

      Dealing with celiac and menstrual cycle

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      @annirosex, Get your Vitamin D level checked.  Low Vitamin D can mess up menstrual cycles.  Vitamin D at healthy levels (80-100) acts as a hormone and regulates your immune system.  Thiamine Vitamin B 1 is needed to activate Vitamin D, so adding thiamine in the form Benfotiamine would be beneficial.

      Thank you! I saw a different provider this week who took one look at all my medical information and declared it was celiac in the first 5 minutes of the appointment. I am still a bit in shock but so very thankful to have an official diagnosis. The doctor told me to have my children tested and one of them came back with a "weak positive" TTG IgA! Not sure what to think about that! This week has been a wild ride. Thankfully this website has such great information! I've been going through all the do's and don't's of cross contact etc.
