My son who,is thirteen, has celiac disease and was diagnosed at two years old. I would like to join a support group but there is none in my area. Also, I would like for my son to meet some teens that have celiac. Does anyone know if there is a group around Marlton,Medford or Mt. Holly, NJ? Please let me know. :mellow:

Lorraine, Did you ask the CSA where, if any, are the CSA sponsored support groups in your area? It should be on their website.

There is a group that meets monthly (except July & August) at

Virtua/West Jersey Hospital in Voorhees.

We are the CSA Southern New Jersey Chapter #9.

Here is our website link (I hope it goes thru):

Open Original Shared Link

Our Nov. 6th meeting will be our Thanksgiving coverdish.

My contact information is on the website also.

Dr. Verma also has a children's group that meets the second

Sunday of each month. I believe they alternate between

the Voorhees hospital and Children's Hospital in Phila.

She will be sending me information about her next meeting which

I'll post to this site.

      Welcome to the forum, @yellowstone! The most common ones seem to be dairy (casein), oats, eggs, soy and corn. "Formed" meat products (because of the "meat glue" used to hold their shape) is a problem for some. But it can be almost anything on an individual basis as your sensitivity to rice proves, since rice is uncommonly a "cross reactor" for celiacs. Some celiacs seem to not do well with any cereal grains.

      What foods can trigger a response in people with gluten sensitivity? I've read that there are foods that, although they don't contain gluten, can cause problems for people with gluten sensitivity because they contain proteins similar to gluten that trigger a response in the body. I've seen that other cereals are included: corn, rice... also chicken, casein. I would like to know what other foods can cause this reaction, and if you have more information on the subject, I would like to know about it. Right now, I react very badly to rice and corn. Thank you.
