I was diagnosed about 2 weeks ago with Celiac, also hae to stay away for Soy and Dairy (Casien). My husband and I moved to GA about a year and a half ago. I would love to hear from anyone near Atlanta to understand more about what I need to do- how to help my husband understand-and how to make this a positive change for him too. ;)

Looking forward to meeting new friends!

Harrisgirl,

Welcome to the board and Atlanta. I live just west of the city and ride MARTA. I work in the midtown area of the city. This June I will be gluten free for 2 years. :D

There are several more of us from the Atlanta area on this board. You can pm me anytime.

Again Welcome!

I was born and raised in Atlanta. I will be moving back there as soon as I finish my degree.

I was diagnosed about a year ago. Feel free to message me if you ever want to talk!

I'm newly diagnosed and live in Atlanta as well. I'm also struggling a little, especially with getting my husband and friends to understand...so I can't help you there...but I'm here if you need someone to commiserate with. :)

BTW, does anyone know a good dietitian with experience in Celiac disease in the ATL area?

I'm gluten intolerant and in Atlanta, as well . . . also allergic to dairy, soy, and eggs. But I've adjusted pretty well by (most of the time) focusing on the beauty of what still is available within these limitations. I blog about it at Open Original Shared Link if any of you are interested in recipes, insights, etc., from a local girl. :)

Hi All...I'm in Atlanta too! Actually Marietta but I work in a hospital in Atlanta. Originally from New Orleans and moved here 10 yrs ago.

I am going to see Dr. Jagiella on 8/31. She is a celiac specialist (or at least sees all of the celiac pts in the pratice.) She was recommended on the Atlanta celiac website as well.

I'm new to all of this but I'm here if anyone wants to compare notes!!!

See y'all around the board!

I formerly lived in Atanta (Marietta) for eleven years and still visit 2x every year to see my GI doctor (Dr. Rudert) and family. My husband and I live on the west coast of Florida and I am originally from Savannah. I am always looking for other gluten sensitive or Celiac friends to meet/have lunch with when I visit Atlanta. Do you live on the north side of town? I usually stay in the perimeter area when I visit my doctor.

      Constant low back, abdominal and pelvic pain!

      By Aussienae · Posted

      Mine is definitely triggered by inflammation and stress! I do also have arthritis in my spine, but the pain is more in my pelvic area. Im sure i have other food intolerances or other autoimmune isues but the more I focus on it and see doctor after doctor, it just gets worse.  Best thing is get of Gluten! (I also avoid lactose). Try to limit stress and anything that causes inflammation in your body.

      Constant low back, abdominal and pelvic pain!

      By ButWhatCanIEat · Posted

      Good morning,   I got an email about replies to this post. Some of my doctors had blamed a slipped disc for the pain I had and that contributes, but after meeting with a gastroenterologist AGAIN and trying some lifestyle modifications, I found out I have IBS and can't tolerate corn or excessive fructose to any degree. Cutting out corn AFTER having cut out all gluten containing products was a real pain but I feel much better now!

      Isolated DPG-Iga

      By trents · Posted

      So, I contacted Scott Adams, the author of that article and also the creator/admin of this website, and pointed out to him the need to clarify the information in the paragraph in question. He has now updated the paragraph and it is clear that the DGP-IGA does serve the purpose of circumventing the false negatives that IGA deficiencies can generate in the tTG-IGA antibody test.

      Lymph nodes

      By Soleihey · Posted

      Has anyone experimenced enlarged lymph nodes with celiac? Both in the neck and groin area. Imaging of both areas have said that lymph nodes are reactive in nature. However, they have been present for months and just wondering how long this may take to go down. Been gluten-free for about two months. Blood counts are normal.
