Hi! I am and hour and a half north of Pittsburgh, originally from near Monroeville. Do you do any of these events in Pgh. area? I would love to attend but not sure about travelling to Philly. Hope your thyroid issue gets to be better for you! Look forward to chatting with both of you!

I just sent you a private e-mail.

Yes, there are closer events. The Raisin Rack in Canton isn't that far away. That is where I shop... Sept 8 is when this store has a small sampling day, nothing big but a great store..Then on Sept 9th in Solon, Ohio ( near Cleveland area) there is a event with speakers , vendors/bakers & gluten-free product to purchase....this is my first time at this event as a baker/vendor...

Then in October ther is an event in Cranberry Twp , very close. I will be working that event as well. Oct 27th from 8:30 to well sorry I just forgot!...This is a new one so not all details are worked out yet...Four Points Sheridan.........

This area is not very popular with events....I learned a long time ago that we need to be a road runner to stock up on gluten-free... There are four of us gluten-free & more that needs to be!!!!

I can give you a heads up on everything around here & then other states too....

There's is so much new gluten-free foods these days but still the nasty stuff is still out there too... years ago we had no choices so these days are wonderful for us older celiac faces....

By the way Gaint Eagle is now carrying Goodbye Gluten Bread for $5..49 a loaf, good moist bread that needs no heating!!!!

If you are near the Hermitage area, there is a support group that I belong to. We meet the second Thursday of each month at 6:30 PM. I was diagnosed 3 months ago, and everyone has been fantastic at this group. It's so comforting to talk to someone else who is going through the same issues. We'd love to have you at our meetings.

Can anyone suggest some great Gluten Free restaurants near Jim Thorpe, PA and Bethlehem, PA?

I'll be on tour there mid-October and run into trouble finding gluten-free places on the road sometimes.

Thanks so much,

Jayne

      Gluten related ??

      By Colleen H · Posted

      Hi everyone  This has been a crazy year so far... How many people actually get entire sensory overload from gluten or something similar ?  My jaw is going nuts ..and that nerve is affecting my upper back and so on ...  Bones even hurt.  Brain fog. Etc  I had eggs seemed fine.   Then my aid cooked a chicken stir fry in the microwave because my food order shorted a couple key items .   I was so hungry but I noticed light breading and some ingredients with SOY !!! Why are we suffering with soy ? This triggered a sensitivity to bananas and gluten-free yogurt it seems like it's a cycle that it goes on.  The tiniest amount of something gets me I'm guessing the tiny bit of breading that I took one tiny nibble of ...yikes ..im cringing from it .. Feels like my stomach is going to explode yet still very hungry 😔  How long does this last?! Thank you so much

      Celiac getting dentures

      By gfmom06 · Posted

      I have had orthodontic work done. The 3M invisalign material was no problem. BUT my retainers are another matter. They seemed okay for a few months. Now, however, they cause a burning sensation on my tongue, gums and insides of my lips. The burning sensation is now spreading to my throat. I notice it when I breathe. This is annoying and interferes with my enjoyment of eating. I am visiting with my provider tomorrow. We'll see where this goes from here.

      Is this celiac?

      By Beverage · Posted

      Exactly which blood tests were done? There are a few different ones and some docs don't do them all. Also, your results and reference ranges for each?
