Great Restaurant In The Berkshires!

I am vacationing in the Berkshires and went to dinner at Spice in Pittsfield, MA. What a wonderful experience! We called ahead and were told that gluten free was no problem to accomodate. When our server came to the table, she asked who had the gluten allergy and I told her that it was my son and me. She then told me to choose what I wanted from the menu and the chef would make sure that it was gluten free. The salad I had was terrific as well as the main course. When it was time for dessert, the manager came to the table and offered that the chef would come up with a gluten free dessert, if I wanted to try it. Of course after the great experience I was having so far, I agreed to try the dessert. It was a poached pear with a choice of ice cream or sorbet------the chef created it especially for me since it was not on the menu. Overall, this has been the best experience I've had in a restaurant since being diagnosed with celiac disease 8 months ago. Their website is www.eatatspice.com. They also made my son feel really special and made no problem out of making the kids' menu gluten free for him.

Highly recommended for anyone visiting or living nearby..........

      I haven’t been diagnosed formally. My doctor always called it eczema but over the years I have figured out it isn’t.  I’ll do some research on iodine. Thanks for that info.

      I would not think abstaining from commercially processed food would have any effect on dermatitis herpetiformis. What can help with dermatitis herpetiformis is reducing iodine in your diet and, of course, you must completely abstain from gluten.  Many who suffer from dermatitis herpetiformis cannot find relief until they get on a med called Dapsone. It seems to be pretty effective but stresses the liver. So, anyone taking it must have their liver enzymes monitored regularly. By the way, celiac disease is the only know cause for dermatitis herpetiformis. Has your rash been officially diagnosed as dermatitis herpetiformis? It can be a challenge to find a dermatologist who knows how to properly biopsy dermatitis herpetiformis when seeking a diagnosis.

      I was eating gluten at the time it was done. I do not eat commercially processed food and we make it all from scratch so I wonder if that might cause an issue.

      When you had the blood draw done for the antibody testing, had you already been practicing a gluten free diet? If so, that would also sabotage the results of the tTG-IGA.

      The rash on my hands is the little blisters or  dermatitisherpetiformi you are referencing. They itch like crazy and no doctor has ever been able to get them to go away. When I remove gluten from my diet they go away. I decided to do the test for that reason. It’s really my only symptom but my sister has celiac disease and the same hand rash. her doctor recommended I get tested.
