Hi,

I'm new here so, hello y'all!

My husband and I are going to Atlanta this week and I'm hoping for a few suggestions from you lovely Celiacs out there.

We are staying in Midtown around Peachtree St. N.E. and 17th St. We will be walking most places. I was eating Gluten-Free last year when we went there and I found it difficult in most places. One restaurant, Nan, a Thai place was wonderful. They had plenty of curries and rice based dishes.

I also love Vietnamese, Japanese, Indian, Mediterranean, Spanish, Mexican, African, well I guess I love most cuisine styles including Southern-American(which I find to be the mst difficult.)

Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks so much!

I recommend Real Chow Baby (not sure exact location, google search??), There's always Chick-fil-a's...Whole Foods has a great hot bar. Check out this website for other places.

The Real Chow Baby, Nan (awesone Thai food), R. Thomas and South City Kitchen are close and all are highly recommended. The Real Chow Baby would be a short cab ride but it's worth it. If you like to walk I think you could walk to all of them except maybe the Real Chow Baby. If you do walk use the small side streets along Peachtree. There are some great neighborhoods around there and it's a nice area of town.

Also, I also just read a post on another message board about a new Brazilian tapas bar that is virtually gluten and dairy free (I think there is 1 item on their menu that has gluten). It's called Beleza. Here's the Open Original Shared Link.

      Weak positive blood test and marsh type 1

      By trents · Posted

      You are welcome! We frequently get similar comments. Knowledge about celiac disease in the medical community at large is, unfortunately, still significantly lacking. Sometimes docs give what are obviously bum steers or just fail to give any steering at all and leave their patients just hanging out there on a limb. GI docs seem to have better knowledge but typically fail to be helpful when it comes to things like assisting their patients in grasping how to get started on gluten free eating. The other thing that, to me at least, seems to be coming to the forefront are the "tweener" cases where someone seems to be on the cusp of developing celiac disease but kind of crossing back and forth over that line. Their testing is inconsistent and inconclusive and their symptoms may come and go. We like to think in definite categorical terms but real life isn't always that way.

      How to navigate living with dermatitis herpetiformis

      By Rogol72 · Posted

      Hey @Morgan Tiernan, Sounds just like my experience. I was diagnosed with dermatitis herpetiformis over 10 years ago. It appeared suddenly as a very itchy rash which looked like Eczema. When a steroid cream didn't clear it up, my Dermatologist (who had come across it before) suspected dermatitis herpetiformis and performed a skin biopsy which came back positive for dermatitis herpetiformis. The important thing is to get a definitive diagnosis of dermatitis herpetiformis. What you've described sounds like classic dermatitis herpetiformis though. Hopefully, your Dermatologist has come across dermatitis herpetiformis before and performs the skin biopsy correctly as trents mentioned. I've had the blisters on the knees, hips, forearms/elbows or anywhere that pressure is applied to the skin ... from clothing or otherwise. They itch like nothing on earth, and yes salt from sweat or soaps/shower gels will irritate a lot. I've been on Dapsone and it is very very effective at eliminating the dermatitis herpetiformis itch, and improved my quality of life in the early stages of getting on top of dermatitis herpetiformis while I adjusted to the gluten-free diet. But it does have various side effects as trents said. It can effect the red blood cells, lowering hemoglobin and can cause anemia, and requires regular blood monitoring whilst on it. You would need to consider it carefully with your Dermatologist if you do have dermatitis herpetiformis. Here's a very informative webinar from Coeliac Canada discussing everything dermatitis herpetiformis related.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PAdmsNiyfOw I've also found this recent interview with a Dermatologist about dermatitis herpetiformis to be educational.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rZnLeKutgUY Keep the chin up and keep advocating for yourself for a proper diagnosis. Though it sounds like you're on top of that already. Are you in the UK or Ireland? I'm curious because your surname is Irish.

      I would go for four weeks to ensure a valid test, if you can tolerate it, that is.
