[samilovespink]

If anyone knows how to find a support group in my area and would let me know that would be great. Newly diagnosed and really dont feel knowledgable enough yet to be successful in my diet. Any help would be greatly appreciated!!

Hi Sami-

I'm in Madison as well. I haven't ever been to meetings, but you're in luck as there are two support groups in town:

-MAGIC (Madison Area Gluten Intolerance Chapter) Open Original Shared Link

-Gluten-Free Badgers-- This is a relatively new group at the university. (Which I think is open to the public). Unfortunately I don't have much info, but the Badger Herald (campus newspaper) had this article a few months back:

Open Original Shared Link

If you have other questions about gluten-free in Madison, I'm happy to help! Good luck!

PS: if you haven't already, you should check out Jac's on Monroe St. They have Bistro-type food (including AMAZING gluten-free frites), and offer a pretty big gluten-free menu (including Silly-yak bread for sandwiches/burgers). They are extremely educated about CC issues. I've eaten there ~5 times, and never had an issue.
