Last night, we took a trip to Dillsburg to pick up my pumpkin pie at the Gluten Free source. I love this store and with raising gas prices, when I need something I usually mail-order it. Well, I had enough time to browse last night and I found the Ian's French toast sticks and Gluten free Corn Dogs. Now I have not gotten to try either but it is was a good find.

I'm so jealous! I still haven't gotten out there and I really should. I have an almost 4 year old who's never had a corn dog! :blink:

Love the new avatar, Annika is getting so big.

It's a great store and it has a lot of stuff, it's just a long drive, even for us.

Oh Wow! That is a bit of a hike. Would take us about 3 hours to get there. Might be worth stopping in if I get out to Mom's place on a non-holiday.

I've been there just a few times, but my mom is there fairly often to get treats for me. I like to think I know my gluten free foods, and they certainly have it covered! Great family-happy to support them.

I too love that store --it is a overnight trip for us...... Lauren & Beverly Fleming (the owners) are very nice ......They have a large selection so it is almost one stop shopping for gluten-free....

If anyone is going there ask them to carry Against the Grain rolls & baguettes. These are excellent..... The distributor for this is United Natural Foods -- they will need to know that info...

I'm just a little bit below PA, in MD. I went out there a few months ago and felt like I just kept driving and driving....forever. I even got lost (but I can get lost in a paper bag ;) ). It was well worth the trip, though.

You're a braver woman than I am. LOL! I live 1/2 hour from the mall complex and haven't been there in 6 or 7 years. After about an hour, I go into sensory overload and have to get out of there.

I'm going to be checking out Kimberton Whole Foods next week. I've heard they have a pretty good gluten-free section. They have 3 locations in our area and they're a lot closer than Whole Foods or Trader Joes. Will let you know how it turns out.

I work in a company of about 30, and there are two confirmed Celiacs, and i suspect 2 others... but neither of them want to hear it.. they would rather live with "IBS" diagnosis.

Oh well.. It's nice that I now have a "gluten-free" buddy so we can make sure that we have gluten-free stuff at our pot luck lunches.

      There are two gluten-related disorders that share many of the same symptoms but differ in nature from each other. One is known as celiac disease or "gluten intolerance". By nature, it is an autoimmune disorder, meaning the ingestion of gluten triggers the body to attack it's own tissues, specifically the lining of the small bowel. This attack causes...

      Welcome to the celic.com community @Ello! You say you had a blood test for celiac disease after eating gluten for 2 weeks. Were you gluten free before that? Had you ever been officially diagnosed with celiac disease previously? You say the result of the blood test was 1.5. Can you provide the name of the test and the reference range for negative...

      Small Bowel Resection 12 inches

      Surgery was in April 2023 due adhesions wrapped around my small bowel which caused blockage and had to be removed. Adhesions were so badly entangled that Surgeon could not cut out them, so the resection was performed. July 2025 started having severe yellow diarrhea and sometimes constipation. Just had another episode and was tested for celiac. Blood test...

      There are two gluten-related disorders that share many of the same symptoms but differ in nature from each other. One is known as celiac disease or "gluten intolerance". By nature, it is an autoimmune disorder, meaning the ingestion of gluten triggers the body to attack it's own tissues, specifically the lining of the small bowel. This attack causes inflammation and produces antibodies that can be detected in the blood by specific tests like the TTG-IGA test you had. Over time, if gluten is not withheld, this inflammation can cause severe damage to the lining of the small bowel and even result in nutrient deficiency related health issues since the small bowel lining is organ where all the nutrition found in our food is absorbed.  The other is NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity or just "gluten sensitivity") which we know less about and are unsure of the exact mechanism of action. It is not an autoimmune disorder and unlike celiac disease it does not damage the lining of the small bowel, though, like celiac disease, it can cause GI distress and it can also do other kinds of damage to the body. It is thought to be more common than celiac disease. Currently, we cannot test for NCGS. Celiac disease must first be ruled out to arrive at a diagnosis of NCGS. Both disorders require elimination of gluten from the diet.  Either of these disorders can find their onset at any stage of life. We know that celiac disease has a genetic component but the genes are inactive until awakened by some stress event. About 40% of the general population has the genetic potential to develop celiac disease but only about 1% develop active celiac disease. The incidence of NCGS is thought to be considerably higher. I hope this helps.

After eating all that wheat product my body exploded with all sorts of symptoms. I stop gluten ASAP. I am still in the healing process. I started having issues after my surgery.

      Welcome to the celic.com community @Ello! You say you had a blood test for celiac disease after eating gluten for 2 weeks. Were you gluten free before that? Had you ever been officially diagnosed with celiac disease previously? You say the result of the blood test was 1.5. Can you provide the name of the test and the reference range for negative vs. positive for the test? I ask because different labs used different reference ranges so scores without a reference range aren't very helpful.

      Surgery was in April 2023 due adhesions wrapped around my small bowel which caused blockage and had to be removed. Adhesions were so badly entangled that Surgeon could not cut out them, so the resection was performed. July 2025 started having severe yellow diarrhea and sometimes constipation. Just had another episode and was tested for celiac. Blood test stated 1.5 after eating gluten for 2 weeks. Lipase level was 120. Having an CT scan to check the pancreas. I have never had any issues eating gluten and now I am so fearful that I might have celiac. Has anyone had a small bowel resection? I am 65 years old. UGGH! I am still feeling bloating etc.
