My boyfriend and I are going to Atlantic City in about a week (our first vacation together!) and I am trying to scope out some places for us to eat while we're there. I've already found a PF Changs near where we're staying, but I was just wondering if anybody else had any good gluten-friendly restaurant suggestions for the area.

Thanks guys!

We're not ignoring you--it's just that AC isn't a great place for gluten-free options. I spent a few days there last fall with my wife and two friends, and we ended up going to PF Changs two days in a row.

If you and your boyfriend are non-smokers (and from outside NJ), you will want to know this--restaurants in New Jersey are smoke-free now, but casinos are not.

Good luck!

Thanks, Ken.

I am hoping we like PF Changs as we've never been there before. I've heard they are really good with the gluten-free food though.

Luckily, my boyfriend and I are staying in a timeshare that has a microwave, refridge and stove, so we won't have to worry about eating all of our meals out, but I just thought it would be good to have some options. There are a couple upscale restaurants that I might check into, but I'm not sure yet.

AC does seem to be a hard city for Celiacs!

Cuba Libre (in the Tropicana) should be able to accomodate you. There is a also a crab shack in the Trop where you can just get crab legs and steamed shrimp. Other than that, I am not aware of many places in AC that are gluten free.

Thanks! We did a little research last night and found out that another Celiac-friendly restaurant, Buddakan, is coming to the Pier at Caesar's. But it's not going to open until the fall. Boo.

      Also one more question--were you able to eat brown rice without issue?

      Does this definitely suggest Coeliac Disease?

      By Heather Hill · Posted

      As a life long sufferer of IBS I have, over the years been tested and re-tested for coeliac disease, colon cancer and all manor of digestive disorders, with the final conclusion being that I have IBS. So, for at least 15 years I have been mostly gluten free (not barley or rye free) although, I have not been avoiding gluten fastidiously.  Nevertheless, I do still suffer from lower abdominal pain, bloating and lower back ache and this is becoming more frequent, with back ache now becoming the predominant symptom, that radiates up to my neck.  Over christmas I decided to put gluten firmly back into my diet in order to run an anti-body test about 8 weeks later and thereby confirm or otherwise whether I am coeliac! The results of the test came out as positive for IgA (not out of range) negative for all other markers, but positive at 12 U/ml for Anti-deamidated Gliadin IgA.  I am hoping to have a biopsy to help confirm. However, my question is, is this likely to be a strong confirmation of coeliac disease, or could there be some other explanation such NCGS? The reason I ask, is because whilst putting the gluten back into my diet I did not suffer unduly in classical terms ie bloat/pain etc, and the back ache of which I am now suffering more of, was about the same as it is now, as I have once again removed gluten. What I do find is that legumes seem to exacerbate both stomach ache, bloating and  backache symptoms such as lentils, beans etc, whilst the gluten containing grains do not obviously seem to.  I think I am likely to be suffering from some form of gut linked inflammation that could be triggering the back ache, bloat, but is this likely to be due to coeliac disease or some other GI related problem, such as leaky gut. Does anyone know or have any experience of these types of symptoms in this context and could shed some light on this for me? Also, if I work towards mending my "leaky gut" with a gluten-free diet and add supportive supplements will this be a wise thing to do and is it likely to reduce the symptoms I now suffer.  Any thoughts and insights will be gratefully received.

      Welcome Santina,  Are you taking Generic or Name Brand Lisinopril?  My quick search shows the name brand as gluten free.  https://www.google.com/search?q=does+lisinopril+contain+gluten&sca_esv=7f0a4d0f8e025b19&sxsrf=AHTn8zqqxMMlYsCdMHyfqjYh7NJMgXRq4g%3A1741188471980&ei=d23IZ9_CO4CKwbkPooX3sAs&ved=0ahUKEwif2u_CoPOLAxUARTABHaLCHbYQ4dUDCBA&uact=5&oq=does+lisinopril+contain+gluten&gs_lp=Egxnd3Mtd2l6LXNlcnAiHmRvZXMgbGlzaW5vcHJpbCBjb250YWluIGdsdXRlbjIFEAAYgAQyBhAAGBYYHjILEAAYgAQYhgMYigUyCxAAGIAEGIYDGIoFSPKNAlCbKVj6gwJwAXgBkAEAmAHYAaAB6w-qAQYxNC42LjG4AQPIAQD4AQGYAhWgAsIRwgIKEAAYgAQYsQMYDcICDRAAGIAEGLEDGIMBGA3CAgcQABiABBgNwgIHECMYsAIYJ8ICBhAAGAcYHsICCxAAGIAEGJECGIoFmAMAiAYBkgcGMTIuOC4xoAeMfQ&sclient=gws-wiz-serp.   Each tablet contains 5, 10 or 20 mg of lisinopril, present as lisinopril dihydrate, as the active ingredient. Mannitol • maize starch • magnesium stearate • iron oxide red. This medicine is gluten-free, lactose- free, sucrose-free, tartrazine-free and free of other azo dyes.  I try to get all NAME BRAND meds, because the generics can be manufactured by multiple companies using different fillers.  I find it strange that a BP med contains Sodium,  Sodium raises my BP 20 or more points.  Keep in mind that I only researched LLISINOPRIL for gluten.  You need to become your own health advocate.  Good Luck.

      @LookingForAnswers101 If you can tell by now, has cutting out gluten helped?

      Thank you so much for this amazing info!! Feels really great to hear from someone else who had such a similar experience. I will adopt paleo presently. May I ask; are there any sources of carbs that do not harm you, and that align with the paleo parameters? Or will I simply have to forgo carbs entirely? Much thanks--may I ask where you obtain this tincture? And also, if there were changes to your diet that helped eliminate this issue? Much thanks to you.
