you can buy them on amazon .com - just type in Triumph dining in the search and they will come up. I haven't bought mine yet (waiting to order with a few other things), but I've heard they are wonderful.

Love, love, love my Triumph Dining Cards!!! It really does help the restaurant staff to understand our situation and it is so much easier to have them read the card and say a few words about it then it is to try to explain it all without the cards. I ordered my cards and the dining guide right from their website and got it pretty quickly.

Good luck! :)

Thanks! I'm assuming they are specific to anyone with Celiac or Gluten problems, not just for adults. I wanted to order them for when we're out with my 3 year-old.

Yep, I have them too, and they're quite useful. I find, more than anything else, they help break the "I'm a busy server and don't want to listen to everything you have to say" or the "I can't remember everything you just said" barriers. It's a fabulous convenience device, and one that I'd prefer not to do without ever again! ;-)

I love them because it gives the server and chef something to look at, and it saves me time because I don't have to go as in-depth with my verbal explanation.

I just had a great Triumph experience last night. I was at a sushi restaurant which is famous for its appetizers and crazy sashimi concotions. I showed up with my triumph cards and my packets of gluten-free soy sauce.

The server took the card back to the chef, and they volunteered to make one of thier appetizers in a clean pan with my soy sauce. It was amazing, and so dellicious. I never leave home without them.

Love them, but I would recommend you make copies of them to give to waiters. We had a dingbat waiter who misplaced the card for some time before finally finding it. Karen

Thanks for the info on the Tirumph Dining Cards. I just got them in the mail yesterday. The rest. guide is awesome! We're in NJ on the PA border, so there's quite a few rest. that offer gluten-free menus that aren't that far from our house. This will certianly make going out with our little guy easier. I was thrilled to see that Charlie Brown's has gluten-free ice-cream! The only thing that's gonna be tough is the french fry thing. No one lists them as gluten-free b/c of non-dedicated friers...such is life! However, we have a Wendy's down the road from us! What a tremendous help this guide will be. Thanks again!

PS- I found a rest. down in the Outer Banks, from the rest guide, that isn't gluten-free, but will make (or at least attempt! :)) a gluten-free meal for him; we're going there at the end of June. There's also a vegetarian take-out rest. on the Outer Banks that does tons of gluten-free stuff without risk of cc that I found via the internet. I spoke to the owner a couple of days ago; he was very helpful and completely understood Zachary's dietary needs. :)

I am going to get those cards. Where are the places in the outer banks? I go down there to visit. The Outback there gave me croutons on my salad.. Thanks, LLee

      Bile reflux with celiac

      Hey! How is your daughter doing now? I am dealing with very similar issues! All started after going gluten free after being diagnosed with celiacs

      Does anyone here also have Afib

      By larc · Posted

      Thanks for your thoughts on this. My reactions to gluten are complex and involve more than just my heart and arteries. The problems with what It does to my cardiovascular system do present me with a bit of a conundrum at times. For instance, I had cardio bypass surgery in 2002 (at age 53) and then again had angina and artery issues in 2006. At the same time, I was also suffering symptoms of early onset dementia while also experiencing symptoms of psychosis. That was when I discovered I had celiac and went on a. gluten-free diet. On that diet, my psychosis disappeared, my chest pain stopped and my cognitive issues also cleared up. Subsequently I began running and exercising again with no cardio problems. And my stress tests and cardio exams since then showed no evidence of artery problems. Plus, my lipid panels showed significant changes. My arteriosclerosis had started in 1992. At that time, my HDL cholesterol had always been measured in the 20s even though I exercised religiously, ate what was supposed to be a heart-healthy diet and was never overweight. After going on a gluten-free diet in 2006, my HDLs have been in the 60s and 70s. Since then, my usual symptoms of ingesting gluten are a temporary increase in blood pressure and certain intense types of hypnogogic hallucinations. The Afib stuff is a recent development. I will be discussing all of this again with my cardiologist in May. I discuss some of this in my substack (no paywall) at https://diaryofapreviouslydementedpoet.substack.com/

      Help Interpreting My Lab Results? (updated)

      By trents · Posted

      Migraines are a recognized symptom of celiac disease. The incidence of it is higher in the celiac community than in the general population. It is one of mine. Well, keep us posted. Do you have a follow up appointment scheduled yet? Again, let me stress that it is important to not begin the gluten free diet or even a reduced gluten diet until all testing related to celiac diagnosis is complete.

      No other testing has been done at this point, though I wonder if my diagnosis will prompt that. My main symptoms have been bowel related and I’ve had severe migraines for several years now but I’ve been seeing a neurologist for that and have it under control, though I now wonder if the migraines have been a symptom of Celiac all along.
