I am in Oak Lawn (South Suburbs) and I am willing to start one! I see that someone else posted from Oak Lawn last spring, but sadly has not returned to the forum since May. We are gluten and corn free in our house for my son who developed a tic disorder last year. He is now doing fabulous after testing revealed his allergies. I have been gluten-free myself and feel much better too. I would love to start a group. Please email me: ctalty15 at gmail.com. I could start a yahoo group page very easily and we could pick a night to have monthly meetings to share recipes, shopping tips, time savers, etc... whatever! to make this easier to manage in the long run. We could brainstorm and research restaurants and stores in the area and make our info public to help others in our area. I noticed that the Jewel store in my neighborhood and the Dominicks near my mother's house carries gluten-free products. Let's do this! If we can band together we can make our own lives so much easier! I have seen the elaborate websites for other area support groups. That would be fabulous here!

I also have a blog with my recipes posted: Open Original Shared Link

Get in touch with me, and anyone who comes across this post in the near or distant future.

Go to the Wild Oats Market in Hinsdale. They're VERY celiac friendly and I know that a woman who runs a support group in the western suburbs teaches there often.

Willing to start a group in the Geneva, St. Charles area. Don't know if that helps you at all. I have a public space to offer but am looking for people to help me get things started.

I'm looking for a group near LaGrange also. I heard there is one in Brookfield that meets at the library every 4th Thursday of each month. I emailed them about it maybe a month ago and haven't heard anything back. I think I'll check it out this month. I've never been to a support group... =)

      Curious question

      By Jmartes71 · Posted

      So I've been dealing with chasing the name celiac because of my body actively dealing with health issues related to celiac though not eating. Diagnosed in 1994 before foods eliminated from diet. After 25 years with former pcp I googled celiac specialist and she wasn't because of what ive been through. I wanted my results to be sent to my pcp but nothing was sent.I have email copies.I did one zoom call with np with team member from celiac specialist in Nov 2025 and she asked me why I wanted to know why I wanted the celiac diagnosis so bad, I sad I don't, its my life and I need revalidaion because its affecting me.KB stated well it shows you are.I asked then why am I going through all this.I was labeled unruly. Its been a celiac circus and medical has caused anxiety and depression no fault to my own other than being born with bad genetics. How is it legal for medical professionals to gaslight patients that are with an ailment coming for help to be downplayed? KB put in my records that she personally spent 120min with me and I think the zoom call was discussing celiac 80 min ONE ZOOM call.SHE is responsible for not explaining to my pcp about celiac disease am I right?

      Alarming

      By Jmartes71 · Posted

      I've noticed with my age and menopause my smell for bread gives me severe migraines and I know this.Its alarming that there are all these fabulous bakeries, sandwich places pizza places popping up in confined areas.Just the other day I suffered a migraine after I got done with my mri when a guy with a brown paper bag walk in front of me and I smelled that fresh dough bread with tuna, I got a migraine when we got home.I hate im that sensitive. Its alarming these places are popping up in airports as well.I just saw on the news that the airport ( can't remember which  one)was going to have a fabulous smelling bakery. Not for sensitive celiacs, this can alter their health during their travel which isn't safe. More awareness really NEEDS to be promoted, so much more than just a food consumption!FYI I did write to Stanislaus to let them know my thoughts on the medical field not knowing much about celiac and how it affects one.I also did message my gi the 3 specialist names that was given on previous post on questions on celiac. I pray its not on deaf door.
