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 was recently diagnosed with celiac disease and I feel the same way. Are you in Indianapolis?

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!

      Taking Probiotics but Still Getting Sick After Gluten – Advice?

      By Xravith · Posted

      I'm very confused... My blood test came out negative, I checked all antibodies. I suppose my Total IgA levels are normal (132 mg/dl), so the test should be reliable. Still, I'm not relieved as I can't tolerate even a single biscuit. I need to talk to my doctor about whether a duodenal biopsy is necessary. But it is really possible to have intestinal damage despite having a seronegative results? I have really strong symptoms, and I don't want to keep skipping university lectures or being bedridden at home.

      CT with contrast.

      They may want to also eliminate other possible causes for your symptoms/issues and are doing additional tests.  Here is info about blood tests for celiac disease--if positive an endoscopy where biopsies of your intestinal villi are taken to confirm is the typical follow up.

      New labs are now very elevated

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      In the Europe the new protocol for making a celiac disease diagnosis in children is if their tTg-IgA (tissue transglutaminase IgA) levels are 10 times or above the positive level for celiac disease--and you are above that level. According to the latest research, if the blood test results are at certain high levels that range between 5-10 times the reference range for a positive celiac disease diagnosis, it may not be necessary to confirm the results using an endoscopy/biopsy: Blood Test Alone Can Diagnose Celiac Disease in Most Children and Adults TGA-IgA at or Above Five Times Normal Limit in Kids Indicates Celiac Disease in Nearly All Cases No More Biopsies to Diagnose Celiac Disease in Children! May I ask why you've had so many past tTg-IgA tests done, and many of them seem to have been done 3 times during short time intervals?

      Chances of being coeliac

      @JettaGirl, "Coeliac" is the British spelling of "celiac". Same disease.

      This may sound ridiculous but is this supposed to say Celiacs? I looked up Coeliacs because you never know, there’s a lot of diseases related to a disease that they come up with similar names for. It’s probably meant to say Celiacs but I just wanted to confirm.
