Hey neighbor!!!! I'm actually in Lowell. As far as I know there really aren't any support groups in this area...but there are some in Newton I believe. I have to go digging through old emails to find it though :-) -
Does Anyone Throw Up With Celiac?
munkee41182 replied to Bri's mom's topic in Parents, Friends and Loved Ones of Celiacs
I did for the first time two weeks ago, one margarita and a chimichanga (non gluten-free). Went home walked upstairs and out it came. I said to my fiance - guess I can't cheat once in a while anymore. Been celiac for 6 years - on and off the diet and have been very strict for the past 4 months. Oh well - it was bound to happen! -
My fiance notice my breath was pretty horrid a while ago. My primary told me to take pepcid because it was due to stress (from planning a wedding and buying a new home). But now that i've been gluten free again, he did say that it was getting better.

Hillshire Farms Kielbasa
munkee41182 replied to IdGirl's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Although I'm the one with celiac, my fiance's stomach goes nuts too when we eat Kilbasa. It's something he didn't eat for the longest time and when he did, his stomach yelled at him. I know processed meats (like sausages), red meats and sodium kill my fiance's stomach (mainly because he has his own dietary restrictions as well). Maybe it's the same thing...
