Bad Dinner

I went to a restaurant tonite that is not necessarily celiac friendly, its a small owned place, not a chain or anything.. the chef came out as i requested, told him the deal, he said he would pan sear a filet mignon and steam a lobster tail for me, no seasonings, steam some veggies, no seasonings and a baked potato, seems all fine right?

well stupid me.. the food comes out and the steak is on this sauce, looks ok, but i felt funny about tasting it, i took a bit on my fork, within 10 minutes i bloated right up.. so they took it back, and were going to give me a new dinner,

i had to leave, not feeling well, I just cant use public bathrooms unless its a dire emergency..

my mom just got here with my "new" dinner.. just a piece of meat thrown in a styrofoam tray.

can you belive this???

i think they are going to hear from me!

Sorry to hear about that. They really should have offered a better replacement. It happened to me last weekend at a supposedly celiac friendly restaurant. Fortunately I had my husband try the first dish they brought out and we questioned it, then they brought out the replacement and I got glutened by it. I'm not one to speak up but I called and let them know about it and asked some questions just so I could be more informed to decide if I'll go there again. They seemed very informed and are going to send a gift card. I don't really care about that but they offered. Two weeks ago, we ordered at a different restuarant that I've had safe meals at before, and they took so long that we had to leave and get it in to go boxes and I got glutened. So, I'm learning my lessons the hard way and have to start to adhere to what everyone says, that we should go when they are not busy. For now, I'm puting a temporary ban on eating out.

It's taken me all week to get over this one. Hope are feeling well again soon.

      An early incubation and inoculation

      When unprotected by hookworms I strongly associate any gluten exposure with wanting to pass out, wanting to throw up/actually throwing up, and total bowel evacuation, but I'm actually seeing my doctor in an hour or so, so I'll put the endoscopy question to him. What other blood tests do you recommend?

      Test says no, but body says Yes?

      New here, and came for answers to this. I was diagnosed in the Summer of 2007, at the same time two of my kids also tested positive. Actual doctor, actual tests. Have lived as clean as possible for 17 years, with the inevitable accidents (and symptoms and recovery), none recent, thankfully. I have accepted that I am celiac and have lived accordingly – ...

      Can food allergies like milk and soy flatten villi?

      Hi Guys, How are u? I am still in the middle of "the storm" and recently i did repeated endoscopy but for some reason it was partially ok and partially not(due to bad handling with tissue samples). So some of the doctors suggest to repeat gastroscopy...and some do not.... Did anyone repeated gastroscopy due to bad taking of the histology tissue samples...

      You say "Consumption of gluten continues to have no effect," but when was your last endoscopy/biopsy? Without doing a regular biopsy, there is no way for you to be sure that eating gluten has no effect on your health.

      Is it gluten?

      @Woodster991, were you eating lots of daily gluten in the 6-8 weeks leading up to your blood test for celiac disease? If not, then your results could be false negative. Many of your symptoms are identical to mine before I was diagnosed, with the exception of constipation. This article might be helpful. It breaks down each type of test, and what a...

      Indeterminate transglutaminase iga

      By Kipman · Posted

      Thank you. Yes I was referring to total iga - it came back as <0.15 I've also had the deamidated gliadin peptide IgA and IgG both of which were indeterminate on 2 tests. Third test the IgG was <1. I'm having the biopsy in two days. Pretty much anything I eat apart from vegetables makes me quite sick now.

      New here, and came for answers to this.  I was diagnosed in the Summer of 2007, at the same time two of my kids also tested positive. Actual doctor, actual tests. Have lived as clean as possible for 17 years, with the inevitable accidents (and symptoms and recovery), none recent, thankfully.  I have accepted that I am celiac and have lived accordingly – as have my now-grown kids. Last week, along with loads of other tests, my primary ordered a Celiac Disease Antibody panel and I just saw the results.  The summary stated "no antibodies detected," although my IgA total was quite high at 425.  The Tissue Transglutaminase IgA was less than <1.0.  My question is whether antibodies would be found in my body after all this time living gluten-free? To be clear, if I get gluten and do NOT know it, I will get sick later no matter what. So any psychological element is right out of it; I get nailed every time if there's gluten in my food. Later, we will trace everything and find it.  Small wonder I work so hard to keep gluten out of my diet. I am a senior citizen, and watch my health very carefully.  But now this test seems to indicate I don't have celiac disease... or do I?  LIke the title says, the test says no, but my body says yes and has for 17 years. Any thoughts on what's going on?  Happy to answer question. Thank you.

      @Woodster991, were you eating lots of daily gluten in the 6-8 weeks leading up to your blood test for celiac disease? If not, then your results could be false negative. Many of your symptoms are identical to mine before I was diagnosed, with the exception of constipation. This article might be helpful. It breaks down each type of test, and what a positive results means in terms of the probability that you might have celiac disease. One test that always needs to be done is the IgA Levels/Deficiency Test (often called "Total IGA") because some people are naturally IGA deficient, and if this is the case, then certain blood tests for celiac disease might be false-negative, and other types of tests need to be done to make an accurate diagnosis. The article includes the "Mayo Clinic Protocol," which is the best overall protocol for results to be ~98% accurate.

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Approximately 10x more people have non-celiac gluten sensitivity than have celiac disease, but there isn’t yet a test for NCGS. If your symptoms go away on a gluten-free diet it would likely signal NCGS.
