I don't know about restaurants since I've been avoiding eating out for the time being.... I went to Outback a month after I went gluten-free, and they are one of a number of chains that offer gluten-free menus

as for food stores, wegmans and whole foods both have a number of stores in new jersey (I think they both have store locators on their websites) and offer a lot of gluten-free choices..

There is a store called Happy Carrot, 636 Kinderkamack Rd River Edge, NJ with a huge gluten free selection.

It may be a little bit of a drive, but the selection is very good. I know Whole Foods in many states have good gluten-free selections, but a lot of the stores in NJ are small, and just don't have the shelf space for a good selection.

And, if you are near a Wegman's, they are a good choice. The Wegman's have celiac in the family so they make an effort to have good gluten-free products.

I don't know Jersey that well but there is an Outback, Legal Seafoods and Chili's all in the Palisades Mall in Nyack. Outback and Legal Seafoods both have gluten-free menus and Chili's will let you know what is safe. Depending on where in Bergen County you are the Palisades Mall isn't to far. I used to meet my friend who lives in Paramus there.

Bergen Co. is in north Jersey?? I am in Salem Co. in south Jersey. We go to Whole Foods and some mom and pop health food places nearby. Pathmark also offers a few items. I do most of my shopping at Whole Foods though or online. Resturants are not a biggie right now as my little one is only 16 months and just pack things right now. Bakeries in this area are nill! There is Mr. Ritz in Philly just over the bridge. They are supposed to be opening one near me too but I think I will have grey hair before that happens!! LOL! You can order by phone from Mr. Ritz. They just will not ship decorated cakes but most everything else you can order. They will, however, ship cake blanks if you know someone who can decorate. Look online for Mr. Ritz bakery or I can locate the link if you like.

      Fibrin glue

      By Tammie1935 · Posted

      Perhaps a silly question, but does fibrin glue, often used in surgery, contain gluten?  I've searched and searched and cannot find an answer.  Thanks, Tammie

      Test says no, but body says Yes?

      https://www.webmd.com/a-to-z-guides/immunoglobulin-test https://labs.selfdecode.com/blog/high-iga/ I think for total IGA to be elevated to the point of being out of normal range there would need to be some chronic inflammation or infection happening, not just a short term event. As I said, I would visit with your doctor over this and I would ask to get that checked again in the near future after your back pain and cold have been resolved for a time.

      @knitty kitty Hi there, All my other bloods were within normal limits, though my iron has always been just a couple from being below range. Physio thought I had Ehlers-danlos syndrome, she sent a letter to my doctor but doctor said i don't have it. I've only had stomach issues for 1.5 years. About 4 years ago I lost a tonne of weight (I did go through a really traumatic experience at that time which I got c-ptsd from) then 2.5 years ago I put all the weight back on plus 14kg and all within 6 weeks. I went up 3 clothing sizes. Bloat up like I'm  months pregnant. Pins and needles, aching joints and muscles, major forgetfulness and brain fog. Only get about 5 hrs sleep, urinate every hour day or night. Nausea and bad belly pain and rashes. No diarrhea though. It all just seemed to come out of no where. It's crazy and I'm getting no answers. Biopsy getting done it 2 days.

      @Travel Celiac, Doing a happy dance with you!!!  You're doing very well!!!  Kudos for being a rescuer!  Hip Hip Hooray! Yes, strenuous exercise can raise your IgA, as can viral infections like the common cold or Covid.   https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC9574171/ Do discuss with your doctor the nutritional deficiencies that frequently occur in Celiac Disease and on the gluten free diet.  Deficiencies in zinc, iron, the B vitamins, Vitamin C and Vitamin D can all affect your ability to fight off viruses and repair stressed muscles.

      Thank you, trents and knitty kitty!  You have confirmed what I thought:  Clean living from a gluten-free perspective has meant basic tests would show low-to-no antibodies. It was my doctor who was wondering if I even had it, based on these tests.  He's not a gastro-doc, but otherwise a kind and competent doctor. He seems genuinely interested in what it means to be celiac, and also seems only somewhat familiar with tests & protocols. Hey, at least he's open to learn. Me, I never had a doubt.  I just wondered if these tests indicate that I'm doing a good job and the answer is Yes.  Hooray! As for the concern over my high overall IgA, I recently injured myself helping a friend not die, and I have loads of inflammation in my lower back and hips at the moment.  Perhaps that is the source of the high IgA? Dunno.  I dragged a short 200 lb woman around her kitchen like a sack of potatoes as I repeatedly did the Heimlich maneuver (I am quite tall, so kinda had to pick her up). Successful after the 8th heave-ho, to our mutual relief. Good ol' Navy medical training came in good for something!  But later, after the adrenaline wore off, I was in paaaaain. I wonder if another source was that I recently had a bad cold, like to the point of taking a COVID test (neg), which knocked me on my butt for a couple weeks. The tests came just a couple days after I was symptom-free. Could that do it? My big takeaway:  I have done well in avoiding gluten.  So huzzah for that. Thank you both.
