My Pf Changs Experience

So I chose PF changs the other night, haven't been for their gluten free stuff yet... and I was VERY happy with everything. The food was excellent, I felt great, and I even got to have a Redbridge to boot (Gluten free beer!)

It was funny because when I ordered the Redbridge, the waitress had no idea what I was talking about, and I had to point out that they had gluten free beer. She was tickled pink at the new information :P

We had the best experience at PF Changs. When our waiter came over carrying the tray with sauces, he started to put it on the table. He saw that I had a gluten-free menu and said, "Oh, you can't have this." I was so thrilled. I told him he was right, that I couldn't, but my hubby could. He brought me my own tray of sauces with gluten free soy sauce. I ordered the lemon chicken and the mango tea. YUM. Our server asked if we watched TV and said that there had been an episode on House that mentioned celiac. He also told us how they have different woks for the gluten free dishes.

Also, before I went, I had e-mailed Changs about what type of plate my food should come out on. They told me that allergen food will always be on their logo plates. Non-allergen foods will be on plain white plates.

When they brought my food, the server said gluten free lemon chicken and sure enough, it was on a PF Changs logo plate. I was happy happy!

Only the second time at a PF Chang (Metarie, La.) and all was well. Glad to have eaten there.

happy!

I just saw that episode last week with my roommate! House asked his team, "What could cause flattening of the villi?" Of course the first thing out of my mouth was "CELIAC" before House even had the chance to say the answer. LOL. I couldn't believe how I got through that whole episode until that point without even suspecting it.

I also had a good PF Changs experience. The guy also had a "whoa, you can't have that" moment with the soy sauce. He got it before I even had a chance to say it.

we went to the one in Pittsburgh--my husband had been listening to the Mountaineers in the car while my son and I went on in. When he got to the table he thought they must've given us the wrong menus--"Wow--it's actually laminated" :rolleyes:

It was delicious and it didn't cost us a small fortune like the Outback which has screwed up 2x now :angry:

My DS13 had a chicken/shrimp noodle dish, I had their chicken dish that was similar to Cantonese Chicken and my husband had shrimp with lobster sauce--all for about $36--not bad at all. And leftovers for the next day--yummm....

Definitely heading back--just wish that all of the good restaurants aren't an hour away from us--WV

I just saw this episode to!!! I did the same thing...I shouted Celiac Disease at the TV.

I haven't been to PF Changs since going gluten free but I think I'm going to have to try it soon!!! :P

      Poo changes after 2 weeks

      By sh00148 · Posted

      Thank you. That’s all really helpful. I think it must have been something she ate as the poo colour has settled now.    Starting to see improvements in her tummy, slowly but surely!

      I take all vitamins and supplements.  My cardiologist has me taking B12 5,000 once per weeks.  He gives me complete blood work every 6 months.  He's still building my D levels which is now in 60s.  He wants them in low 80s.  I take 5,000 IU's daily.  With this dosage I've gone from 42 to 65 over a period of about 5 years.  It builds very slowly.   As far as iron, I take a double dose of gentle iron with C on an empty stomach on alternate nights.  Yes, iron is a component for many of us with RLS, but mostly "brain iron" that in some people may require iron transfusions.

      The positive DGP-IGA indicates the possibility of celiac disease. It is typical for someone who does have celiac disease to have some antibody tests be negative and others positive. This is not unique to celiac disease diagnosis. It is why doctors typically run many tests when seeking diagnosis of a suspected disease.  The DGP-IgA test is considered to have high sensitivity and specificity. In general, the DGP-IgA test has been reported to have a sensitivity ranging from 75% to 95% and a specificity ranging from 90% to 100%. Overall, the DGP tests, including DGP-IgA and DGP-IgG, exhibit a sensitivity of approximately 85-95% and a specificity of about 95-98%. The above paragraph is taken from this article which gives an overview of the various tests that can be run for celiac disease and their reliability: What symptoms are you experiencing?

      Celiac Maybe a Possibility?

      By trents · Posted

      Yes, get serum antibody testing done for celiac disease. You could also have NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity). NCGS shares many of the same symptoms of celiac disease but does not damage the lining of the small bowel as does celiac disease. There is no test for it. A diagnosis for NCGS depends on first ruling out celiac disease. It is 10x more common than celiac disease. Some experts feel it can be a precursor to the development of celiac disease. Eliminating gluten from your life is the antidote for both.
