I am looking for a support group somewhere in the area between Frederick, Md. and Harrisburg, PA. Those places would be the ultimate distance.

I live in southern PA - about a half hour from the Maryland border.

Thanks for info. :)

Hey

I'm near Frederick and myself as well as a friend of mine have been thinking of putting together a celiac group around the area so maybe we could all get together.

There is a support group in Gettysburg, PA that meets twice a year and has a meeting coming up on November 7th, I believe. We have about 40 people and the chairwoman contacts numerous gluten-free companies and gets an awesome abundance of gluten-free samples. I usually come home with several shopping bags of free food. Meetings are on Monday nights. There is also a group that meets in York twice a year, but theirs is on a Friday night. Since they are much larger (100+), they are able to get some great speakers to come in, i.e. Dr. Fasano. Camp Hill, PA also has a group. If you want more information, just e-mail me: prock@pa.net

Another vote for the G-burg Support Group!

Hey Mom22, it's me Lauren, I finally found this site :)

Don't think I'll be able to make it to the next meeting because I have class in Philly that night... but I'm sure my Mom will be there in my place. The G-burg group really is great - they were my saviors when I was first diagnosed! I definitely recommend going to the upcoming meeting. Let me know if you have any questions.

LAUREN!!!

Glad to see you found this site. Miss you and will catch you at the meeting in the spring, but will also send you an e-mail. I hope you are doing well and look forward to chatting with your mom. Take care!!

P.S. You won't believe how big the kids have gotten.

      Wondering if anyone knows whether Lindt chocolate balls are gluten free. The Lindt Canadian website says yes but the Lindt USA website says no. The information is a bit confusing.

      I didn’t know there were different types of CT. I’m not sure which I had. It just said CT scan with contrast.

      I had the same thing happen to me at around your age, and to this day it's the most painful experience I've ever had. For me it was the right side of my head, above my ear, running from my nerves in my neck. For years before my outbreak I felt a tingling sensation shooting along the exact nerves that ended up exactly where the shingles blisters appeared. I highly recommend the two shot shingles vaccine as soon as your turn 50--I did this because I started to get the same tingling sensations in the same area, and after the vaccines I've never felt that again.  As you likely know, shingles is caused by chicken pox, which was once though of as one of those harmless childhood viruses that everyone should catch in the wild--little did they know that it can stay in your nervous system for your entire life, and cause major issues as you age.
