Leroy Selman's Restaurant

Just wanted to let you know that I had my first successful vacation gluten-free in Longboat Key, FL. I googled celiac + Longboat Key and got their local chapter and over 27 restaurants that are allergy aware! Now I feel much more confident about vacationing. My family loves to dine out!

I also found a great restaurant with a gluten-free menu and many locations in FL! It is called LeeRoy Selmon's, he was a Tampa Bay football player. Nice gluten-free menu, southern fare. Locations in

S. Tampa, New Tampa, St. Pete, Bradenton, Sarasota, and Ft. Meyers.

      Hi Trents, there’s a test centre here that tests for igg and ige antibodies, would neither of these pick up celiac disease? I haven’t had the test because I didn’t know about it until I’d already been along the elimination diet route and it’s pretty obvious if I eat the wrong thing because I swell up like a balloon and my guts bleed. Possibly another author you might not agree with but dr gundry suggests that lectins trigger autoimmune disease and recommends the igg and ige antibody test to see which you are reacting to, my arthritis went away when I stopped eating them, my sisters fibromyalgia also miraculously disappeared. Celiac disease being an autoimmune problem I’m surprised that testing for reactions to all lectins isn’t common practice, it’s not just grains, there’s lectins in soya, chilli, cucumber, tomatoes, aubergine, melon, potato, banana, beans and almost all seeds.. I could go on and on, it’s easier to list low lectin food than high. If the idea of giving up lectins is freaking people out it really shouldn’t, dr gundry has a useful list of low lectin ingredients, it’s really easy, you just only eat things from that list. It’s been life changing for me figuring this out, with lectin avoidance, reishi and cordyceps I’m able to function pretty well.

      Welcome to the forum, @Nstvns03! Immunoglobulin A Qn is not a test for celiac disease per se. It's what we commonly call "total IGA" and it is a test used to determine if there is IGA deficiency. If there is IGA deficiency, the individual IGA tests done to look for celiac disease are going to be artificially low and this can produce false negatives. Obviously, you are not IGA deficient. But the question needs to be asked, had you already been practicing a reduced gluten diet when the blood draw was done for these tests?

      I had celiac testing done and the only think in that test that was high was the immunoglobulin A Qn results was off the chart high at 419. Does this confirm celiac if everything else but that test was normal?

      Thank you for clarifying! Something to possibly consider as I continue on my “non-gluten” quest and if I do not improve, but being new to this whole realm and already overwhelmed and stressed, this would have pushed me over the edge right now. 🥹

      Thanks for the information, knitty kitty. It helps bring some clarity and reduces the confusion that misinformation such as is contained in this thread title introduces into the community. People new to the celiac experience are already struggling to wrap their minds around not being able to eat just wheat, barley and rye any longer. We don't need to unnecessarily add to the list on "no no" foods. And I saw where you added this same post to the thread on oats as well.
