Hello. My name is Tamara. I am looking for a support group in the Inland Empire or surrounding area of Riverside, San Bernardino in California. Any suggestion?

Tamara, a search didn't find a group, but maybe we could sort of do it online for now. In the interest of full disclosure, there's no certainty of celiac here. My youngest stopped spitting up/throwing up every day when I removed wheat from his diet, something I wouldn't have thought of if I hadn't already done it for the older boy for behavior. But my baby cannot have testing done yet as he's not two. However, the treatment needed is still the same. I've gotten pretty good at baking gluten free in just a few short months, only to realize I get to start over because the same baby has trouble with almonds and the doctor recommended we avoid all tree nuts.

I live in San Bernardino where we have no Henry's nearby and where the best store for gluten free products is Clark's (OMG expensive). It would be great to have someone to share recipes with and to share finds with. Also, when it's kids that suffer, it seems so much harder to make them understand why they can't eat what everyone else is. It's hard to even get the folks outside the immediate family to understand or even accomodate our needs, which is so frustrating.

I'd really like to see if more Inland Empire folks will come out of the woodwork if we start having an active thread, or even if we put together a yahoo group.

-Beth

Hope you are still checking this thread because we have a new support group in Hemet that just started a few months ago & we're growing. We meet the second Saturday of every month at 9:30 a.m. at the Red Robin in Hemet (entrance to the side door). You can contact Jenny at 951-288-5999 for more info.

      Welcome to the forum, @SuzanneL! Which tTG was that? tTG-IGA? tTG-IGG? Were there other celiac antibody tests run from that blood draw? Was total IGA measured? By some chance were you already cutting back on gluten by the time the blood draw was taken or just not eating much? For the celiac antibody tests to be accurate a person needs to be eating about 10g of gluten daily which is about 4-6 pieces of bread.

      I've recently received a weak positive tTG, 6. For about six years, I've been sick almost everyday. I was told it was just my IBS. I have constant nausea. Sometimes after I eat, I have sharp, upper pain in my abdomen. I sometimes feel or vomit (bile) after eating. The doctor wanted me to try a stronger anti acid before doing an endoscopy. I'm just curious if these symptoms are pointing towards Celiac Disease?

      I'm sorry to hear about what you're going through. It must be really frustrating and uncomfortable. Have you talked to your healthcare provider about these sudden sweating episodes? It might be helpful to discuss this with them to rule out any other underlying issues or to see if there are specific strategies or treatments that can help manage this symptom. Additionally, staying hydrated and wearing breathable clothing may provide some relief.

      I am not sure where you are going, but we have articles in this section which may be helpful: https://www.celiac.com/celiac-disease/gluten-free-travel/

      There are supplements available that can help breakdown minor amounts of gluten such as you might experience with cross contamination when dining out and you order gluten free items from a menu. But they will not help when larger amounts of gluten are consumed. One such product that many on this forum attest to as having helped them in this regard is GliadinX. The inventor of GlidinX is one our forum sponsors so you should know that.
