Petition For Improved Triumph Restaurant Guide

Hi all,

I've seen pretty good reviews for the Triumph Gluten-Free Restaurant Guide, and I was thinking about getting one. However, their sample pages show that all the restaurants are organized by state and sometimes by big cities within states. For example, California restaurants are grouped into San Diego, San Francisco and Other. I happen to be exactly half way between SD and SF, so I basically don't know if any of the restaurants listed are within 20 minutes or within 8 hours driving distance.

The internet is likely the best source for finding restaurants and up-to-date information, but I have found myself spending hours on the internet before every trip, and it is exhausting. I'd love to have a paper alternative, at least as a starting point. But, you cannot Google search the contents of a book in your hand, so thorough indexing is a must. With that in mind, I exchanged emails with Triumph in which I recommended that they add indexes by city and/or county. They said they were considering it for the next edition, but a decision will not be made until January.

Finally, I realized that my emails alone likely won't make a difference, but I bet an email from all the celiac.com forum readers could convince them to go the extra mile. So, I hope you agree this cause is worthy of a minute of your time. You can email them at: custserv@triumphdining.com. Please let me know what you think and if this should go in a different forum.

Thanks!

Shawn

      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.
