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!

      Yes, I, too, have osteoporosis from years of malabsorption, too.  Thiamine and magnesium are what keep the calcium in place in the bones.  If one is low in magnesium, boron, selenium, zinc, copper, and other trace minerals, ones bone heath can suffer.  We need more than just calcium and Vitamin D for strong bones.  Riboflavin B 2, Folate B 9 and Pyridoxine B 6 also contribute to bone formation and strength.   Have you had your thyroid checked?  The thyroid is important to bone health as well.  The thyroid uses lots of thiamine, so a poorly functioning thyroid will affect bone heath.

      That sounds so very likely in my case! I will absolutely ask my doctor on my next bone check coming up in March... Thanks a lot!

      Calcium levels as measured in the blood can be quite deceiving as the body will rob calcium from the bones to meet demands for it by other bodily functions. Also, supplementing with calcium can be counterproductive as it tends to raise gut pH and decrease absorption. More often than not, the problem is poor absorption to begin with rather than deficiency of intake amounts in the diet. Calcium needs an acidic environment to be absorbed. This is why so many people on PPIs develop osteoporosis. The PPIs raise gut pH. And some people have high gut PH for other reasons. Low pH equates to a more acidic environment whereas high pH equates to a more basic (less acidic) environment.

      Kind thanks for all this valuable information! Since my Folate was/is low and also my Calcium, there IS a chance I am low in B vitamins... My doctor only measured the first two, oh and Zinc as I has twisted her arm and guess what, that was mega low too. So who knows, until I get myself tested properly, what else I am deficient in... I did a hair mineral test recently and it said to avoid All sources of Calcium. But this is confusing for me as my Ca is so low and I have osteoporosis because of this. It is my Adjusted Ca that is on the higher side and shouldn't be. So am not sure why the mineral test showed high Ca (well, it was medium in the test but relative to my lowish Magnesium, also via hair sample, it was high I was told). But anyway, thanks again for the VitB download, I will look into this most certainly!

      Hello good afternoon, I was wondering if anyone has ever brought their anti-allergy pills? I have been wanting to use their Cetirizine HCI 10mg. They are called HealthA2Z and distributed by Allegiant Health.I’m also Asthmatic and these allergies are terrible for me but I also want to be sure they don’t have any sort of gluten compound.    I have tried calling them but to no avail. Has anyone ever used them? If so, did you had any problems or no problems at all?    thank you
