I live in Bay Cituy and am willing to travel to an extent. I am recently diagnosed and hear such great comments about support groups and the importance to join one. Please...anyone out there with any info?

Glad you posted this- hope its still accurate... not positive yet, but I am starting gluten free now... I think it will be positive when I get the results from the blood test back on Monday- I had never considered Celiac, but the more I learn the more it sounds like this is what I have! I never thought I'd be hoping for a medical test to be positive, but if this is true- it sounds like it will solve/explain about 90% of my medical issues!

I am in ann arbor.. will look into lansing, flint or Rochester- all are an hour plus away... physically rochester is closest, but unless its at an odd time of day or a weekend, traffic may make that take the longest to get to. Also- I work weekends, so looking into all 3 may give me the best chance of finding a group I can actually attend. I am surprised there isn't one closer to home- Ann Arbor.. I'll have to ask the doc on Monday when I get my test results from her.

Amie in MI..

There is actually a gluten free vendors' fair (food fair) this Saturday in Farmington Hills Michigan. 11 am -2 pm First Presbyterian Church, 26165 Farmington Road (corner of 11 Mile Road). It's a good way to try gluten-free foods before you buy them and also you may be able to find people who live near you. Good luck. Kim.

There is a Detroit area support group. It's the Tri-County Celiac Support Group. They meet once a month, on Mondays, in Farmington Hills. Their website is Open Original Shared Link.

Leah, have you found the Michigan Capital Celiac Support Group? They are awesome! Here's their website:

Open Original Shared Link

I don't know if you are near Lansing, but if you are anywhere near there, they are a good group to get in touch with. They run an annual food fair, a summer camp for kids, meetings throughout the year that are sometimes potlucks or sometimes with a speaker, and they have an excellent newsletter that they will e-mail to you.

      Constant low back, abdominal and pelvic pain!

      By Aussienae · Posted

      Mine is definitely triggered by inflammation and stress! I do also have arthritis in my spine, but the pain is more in my pelvic area. Im sure i have other food intolerances or other autoimmune isues but the more I focus on it and see doctor after doctor, it just gets worse.  Best thing is get of Gluten! (I also avoid lactose). Try to limit stress and anything that causes inflammation in your body.

      Constant low back, abdominal and pelvic pain!

      By ButWhatCanIEat · Posted

      Good morning,   I got an email about replies to this post. Some of my doctors had blamed a slipped disc for the pain I had and that contributes, but after meeting with a gastroenterologist AGAIN and trying some lifestyle modifications, I found out I have IBS and can't tolerate corn or excessive fructose to any degree. Cutting out corn AFTER having cut out all gluten containing products was a real pain but I feel much better now!

      Isolated DPG-Iga

      By trents · Posted

      So, I contacted Scott Adams, the author of that article and also the creator/admin of this website, and pointed out to him the need to clarify the information in the paragraph in question. He has now updated the paragraph and it is clear that the DGP-IGA does serve the purpose of circumventing the false negatives that IGA deficiencies can generate in the tTG-IGA antibody test.

      Lymph nodes

      By Soleihey · Posted

      Has anyone experimenced enlarged lymph nodes with celiac? Both in the neck and groin area. Imaging of both areas have said that lymph nodes are reactive in nature. However, they have been present for months and just wondering how long this may take to go down. Been gluten-free for about two months. Blood counts are normal.
