Does anyone know of any gluten free bakeries and/or restaurants in Valhalla, NY or the nearby surrounding area?

None specifically in Valhalla that I know of, but there are a bunch of places in Westchester with gluten-free menus.

Last night I went to Maud's Tavern in Hastings. Food was ok, but good enough that I'm willing to try it again.

There are 2 Chinese restaurants in Westchester with gluten free menu. Golden Wok in Ardsley (my favorite; I'm there atleast once a week) and Ray's Cafe in Rye Brook.

Ciao in Eastchester (only went once when I was first diagnosed and didn't like it; but thinking of giving it another try since that was 3 years ago).

Epsteins in Hartsdale (there is another location in Yonkers, but haven't started the gluten-free menu yet. Will soon).

There is ofcourse Outback in White Plains (across from The Westchester, in the smaller mall with Toys r Us; right by Whole Foods). And Legal Seafoods in the City Center.

PF Changs in the Westchester.

A couple other restaurants I frequent that don't have gluten-free menus, but they are extremely accomodating and understanding of my needs are, Santa Fe in Tarrytown and Noda's in White Plains. Noda's I bring my own San-J soy sauce and they cook my food in the back in a clean pan. Even though I think they pretty much remember me at this point, I always bring this along with my Triumph dining card. (Just incase).

Santa Fe is the best Mexican food and always so helpful. All the staff is extremely knowledgeable.

Oh, another restaurant that doesn't have a gluten-free menu, but very accomodating is Pumpernickel's in Ardsley. (Shopping center next to Golden Wok). The first time I went there before I could even say I needed my burger cooked in a seperate pan with clean utensils and fries were probably no good..... my waitress said it all for me!!! Even crazier, was when I went back there a few weeks later the same waitress saw me and as we were being seated she remembered me (and not in a bad way - lol)

Also, in Ardsley (not a restaurant) is DeCicco's Supermarket. Huge, awesome gluten free section. They have Celiac Specialties Doughnuts, Conte's Pasta, Joan's gluten-free bagels, pizza, ect, Grainless Baker bread and baked goods and tons more.

Not sure if you want info for NYC but obviously there is a ton more there. Also, more choices in CT (not sure if you want that). Let me know.

      Weak positive blood test and marsh type 1

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

      Labcorp on demand has the test for 120 bucks which is pretty cool, that's what I did last time so I'll probably do that's again. I've been eating gluten for over a year again, if I increase my intake for two weeks and retest is that long enough?

      Yeah I suggested doing another blood test and they basically said no they don't want to do it until after the diet which makes no sense to me either. Maybe I'll just pay for it myself.

      As Scott said, if you go on a gluten free diet ahead of testing you can expect the test results to be negative. If you remove gluten from your diet, the inflammation in the lining of the small bowel will subside, antibody levels (what the blood tests are checking for) will drop and the mucosal lining will experience healing such that a biopsy will be normal. So, it makes no sense to me to start the gluten free diet now unless your doctor wants to see if the weak positive disappears in response to a gluten free diet. Your Marsh 1 score indicates little to no damage has been experienced in the lining of the small bowel to this point. Two slices of bread daily might not be sufficient to produce unequivocal test results. Recently revised "gluten challenge" guidelines are recommending at least 10 g of gluten daily (about the amount found in 4-6 slices of wheat bread) for at least 2 weeks leading up to the day of testing, whether it be the blood antibody testing or the biopsy. It makes more sense to me for you to increase your gluten intake for several weeks and get retested. It is not likely that doing so for that limited amount of time will produce any serious health consequences but may give you unequivocable test results and more clear direction. If you decide to do this, make sure that in addition to the tTG-IGA test, you request a "total IGA" test order to check for IGA deficiency. If you are IGA deficient, your tTG-IGA score will be artificially low. Those are, at the very minimum, the two tests that should always be ordered when a blood draw is done check for celiac antibodies. There are other tests which can be ordered as well that check for evidence in the IGG immunes response spectrum. Here is an overview:
