We're looking to take a short trip, one possible destination is Bangor Maine.

I can't seem to find anything online about gluten-free or Celiac-friendly restaurants there?

Can anyone help me?

I usually go to the restaurants that have gluten free info on their websites. Here are a few:

Applebee's

Uno's

Chili's

Olive Garden

Denny's

I have to tell you though, Bangor doesn't have the nicest of people. I don't think the waiters even know the size of their own underwear. I mostly have salads no croutons with oil and vinegar. So far, the best place there was Olive Garden. They were very understanding and the dish was amazing. They brought me my own salad. I even brought my own corn chips and ordered their awesome brushetta mix.

You can go on their website and they actually have a few things that are gluten free.

If you like Thai, there is a great one called Thai Siam in Downtown Bangor.

I have looked on Applebee's website, but, cannot find any info on gluten at all. Can you tell me how to find this info? Thanks!

I used to agree with this... but now I'm very concerned with that place! I told a waitress there about my sensitivity a few months ago and she was very helpful... she gave me a rundown of everything on the menu that is safe. Then I was there last night and a woman seated near me had such a horrible experience. She'd told the waitress she was gluten-free when she was seated, questioned the food that was brought out to her and found out that it was made using soy sauce with wheat. The chef and waitress both tried to convince the woman to eat the food anyway, since "only a splash" of the soy sauce was used. The woman asked for steamed chicken/vegetables and the chef told her it was impossible to do that without soy sauce.

Now I have no idea whether or not to trust what the previous waitress had told me. I am Googling around to see if anyone else has had a similar experience so I can decide whether or not to avoid the restaurant, but I can't find anything too helpful!

Applebees is not gluten free friendly.Even the grilled chicken is not safe. Most sport bar type eateries use the same supplier. Most grilled chicken or any chicken is flas frozen with a flash glaze that we can not have!

Chili's is ok & Texas Roadhouse is ok for grilled chicken....

      Oh, @Yaya! Five years???  How awful for you to suffer so long! My Vitamin D came up in a matter of months.  High dose Vitamin D has been used in the past to correct rickets and is a safe method to correct Vitamin D deficiency.   I took 1000 IU several times a day, every day for several weeks.  I ate them like m&m's when I was severely deficient.  My brain craved them.  I felt so much better afterwards.  On maintenance dose now.  Yes, the craving went away as my level reached 80-95.   Ask your cardiologist about supplementing with.Benfotiamine.

      @CeliacPsycho246, My OCD symptoms resolved after I took supplements of the active form of Pyridoxine B6 called P5P and L-Theanine, an amino acid.   Pyridoxine B6 is absorbed from foods or supplements and then must be changed to its active form.  P5P is the active form.  Inflammation and malabsorption can impede this process.  Taking the active form is beneficial because it is ready to be used immediately.   L-Theanine is a natural amino acid that helps immensely with anxiety.   Together these two supplements really work to relieve OCD. I like Life Extension brand of P5P, but there are others that are labeled gluten free, too.  L-Theanine is found in chocolate, but as much as I love chocolate, Theanine  supplements work better.   Hope you are open to trying these as a stop-gap until your doctor's appointment.  Keep us posted on your results.

      You can search this site for prescriptions medications, but will need to know the manufacturer/maker if there is more than one, especially if you use a generic version of the medication: To see the ingredients you will need to click on the correct version of the medication and maker in the results, then scroll down to "Ingredients and Appearance" and click it, and then look at "Inactive Ingredients," as any gluten ingredients would likely appear there, rather than in the Active Ingredients area. https://dailymed.nlm.nih.gov/dailymed/

      One positive blood test result means you likely have celiac disease, but to confirm it they may want to do an endoscopy to verify it with biopsies. Unless you have severe symptoms now, you likely should continue eating gluten daily until all testing is completed, and should eat tons of gluten daily in the 2 weeks before an endoscopy.
