Hi Chrissy!

I used to live in CoS, so I thought I'd see if I could help!

I did a search, and found this.

Open Original Shared Link

Looks like they have a gluten free dinner club, and regular monthly meetings. The next meeting is scheduled for Aug 9

Good luck!

Hey Chrissy,

I also live in the Colorado Springs area. I'm not part of a Celiac group here in the formal sense, but I educate churches with the subject. It's amazing how many people get diagnosed with Celiac and call me because they know someone who knows me.

If you are wanting you can contact me and get you going with it all. I can help with nutrition as well. I'm a holistic nutritionist and specialize in....Celiac, imagine that.. :rolleyes:

Hi Chrissy,

I too live in Colorado Springs. The Pikes Peak Chapter Celiac Sprue Association is a great way to meet other celiac's. Val is their group leader and very very friendly. They meet every two weeks I think. Tonight is the Gluten free dinner at the Warehouse restaurant on Cimaron. If you give them a call I bet you could get reservations. I post these on the calendar if you want to know the September club dining. I don't go to the meetings myself because I have family members with celiac and lots of support that way. I own two restaurants and am working with val to have a gluten-free dinner at the fine dining one but won't say more since it would promote business for myself, a no no on this board. So that is how I know her and she's a fantastic person. PM me anytime, I know all the Chef's in the Springs (the real one's anyway that make thier own food from scratch etc.) and can give you advice on where to dine that is not a chain etc.

      Stomach hurts with movement

      By amantelchi · Posted

      I'd like to clarify: Is the pain you describe in the area just below your chest constant, or does it only appear when you start moving?

      gluten-free Oatmeal

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Oats naturally contain a protein called avenin, which is similar to the gluten proteins found in wheat, barley, and rye. While avenin is generally considered safe for most people with celiac disease, some individuals, around 5-10% of celiacs, may also have sensitivity to avenin, leading to symptoms similar to gluten exposure. You may fall into this category, and eliminating them is the best way to figure this out. Some people substitute gluten-free quinoa flakes for oats if they want a hot cereal substitute. If you are interested in summaries of scientific publications on the topic of oats and celiac disease, we have an entire category dedicated to it which is here: https://www.celiac.com/celiac-disease/oats-and-celiac-disease-are-they-gluten-free/
