Hi ME&ME,

Indy has a local support group. Here is there website:

Open Original Shared Link

Take a look around, there is a lot of good information. They also hold beginner's meetings (schedule is on the site). They meet on the north side (Carmel) in the new Clarion building at 116th and Meridian.

In addition, this forum is also a great place for info.

I'm newly diagnosed too. I'm in Indy (Fishers). I just met a neighbor who has it as well. My hubby and I are planning a nice night out tomorrow for our anniversary. We are going downtown to eat and stay at the Conrad, so I've been online trying to research accomodating restaurants. I ran across this board, and I was already a member of celiac.com. Nice to meet you! Always good to stay in touch with local people. Are any of you intolerant of everything? I really don't know how I'll eat anything...or drink anything. I wish now that it was JUST gluten that I had a problem with. Hang in there dude! I wish that I could go back to when I just had to avoid gluten, so if that's all that you have to avoid...PLEASE count your blessings! There are a lot of people on this site who can't eat anything without feeling sick. I know that doesn't help right now, and believe me...I go through my angry phases!!! Just realize that it could always be worse! If you guys want to talk, I will try to stay on here more!

Hello! I am from the Carmel area and have had Celiac for 12+ years now! I know how frustrating it can be, especially right now, as I am 7 1/2 weeks pregnant and SO sick anyways, and it actually takes me back to the days before being diagnosed with the constant stomach aches, and nausea. UGH! I hope you are able to find some people to reach out to and have talked to them...if not sounds like there are a few of us around here!!! Share your frustrations and vent away! It is hard when people do not understand! Nice to see you on here!

      Help I’m cross contaminating myself,

      So I should not eat my gluten free bread?  I will try the vitamins.  Thank you all so very much for your ideas and understanding.  I'm feeling better today and have gathered back my composure!

      Taking Probiotics but Still Getting Sick After Gluten – Advice?

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      Some people prefer eating gluten before bed, then sleeping through the worst symptoms at night.  You might want to try that and see if that makes any difference.   Several slices of toast for breakfast sounds okay.  Just try to work up to the Ten grams of gluten.  Cookies might only have a half of a gram of gluten.  The weight of the whole cookie is not the same as the amount of gluten in it.  So do try to eat bread things with big bubbles, like cinnamon rolls.   Yeah, I'm familiar with the "death warmed over" feeling.  I hope you get the genetic test results quickly.  I despise how we have to make ourselves sick to get a diagnosis.  Hang in there, sweetie, the tribe is supporting you.

      Taking Probiotics but Still Getting Sick After Gluten – Advice?

      By Xravith · Posted

      @knitty kitty  Thank you very much for the advice. I did the exam this morning, my doctor actually suggested me to take something called "Celiac duo test" in which I first do the genetic test and if it's positive, then I'll have to do the antigen blood test. I have to attend 1 month until my results are ready, so I have some weeks to increase the amount of gluten I eat daily. It will be hard because my health is not the best right now, but I also did a blood test to cheek my nutritional deficiencies. The results will arrive on Tuesday, so I can ask my doctor what should I do to control my symptoms and blood levels during this month. For now I'm resting and paying attention to what I eat— at least I don’t look like a vampire who just woke up, like I did yesterday. I'm still scared because is the first time I've felt this sick, but this is the right moment to turn things around for the better.  I realized that if I eat gluten at lunch I cannot finish the day properly, I become severely tired and sometimes my stomach hurts a lot - let's not talk about the bloating that starts later. Do you think is it ok to eat gluten just in the morning, like some cookies and slices of bread for breakfast?

      I suffer from Dermatitis Herpetiformis, too.  Like @Rogol72, I had to cut out all gluten-free processed foods, dairy, oats, and eggs before my skin cleared up.  I followed the Autoimmune Protocol Diet. I also supplement with the eight essential B vitamins.  (Meat and liver are great sources of B vitamins.)  Low levels of certain B vitamins ( B12, Thiamine, Pyridoxine, and Niacin) can affect the nerves, resulting in itching and tingling.  Niacin especially helps with the itching and healing the blisters.  Tallow Balm helps with the healing, too.  Zinc and Vitamin A also help with skin health.   I've gotten such good results with Niacin and the other vitamins mentioned that I've never had to go on Dapsone.
