Looking For French Restaurant Cards

Hello! I'm new to this site (and message boards in general) but not new to eating gluten-free. I need some help finding a good gluten-free French restaurant dining card- I'm going to Paris this week for my 30th birthday and don't want to be sick the whole time! I've been looking around for hours online and haven't been able to find anything free and/or with the right info. Does anyone have any recommendations? Thanks!

Jax Peters-Lowell's book Against the Grain has restaurant dining cards translated in several languages including French

First, I suggest heading over to the delphi forums - there are a couple french speakers over there.

Second, my french is RUSTY, but here's my crack at a translation of what that card says (before someone who actually can speak the language without "er"ing and "um"ing constantly can translate better):

"I suffer from a illness called celiac disease and I must follow a diet absolutely free of gluten. I am susceptible to becoming graveling ill if I eat items which contain wheat or the grains wheat, rye, barly, or oats.

This food, does it contain wheat or the grains of wheat, barley, rye, or oats? If you have the least doubt if these are in the foods, please tell me.

I can eat food which consists of rice, corn, potatoes, vegetables and fruits of all kinds, eggs, cheese, milk, meat and fish, provided it is not coated with wheat flour, fried, have breadcrumbs, or a sauce which contains the items that I can't have.

I thank you for your help."

Tiffany,

Thanks for the translation! What are the Delphi Forums? (I'm new to messaging in general...)

the delphi forums are at www.delphiforums.com/celiac

and a correction to the typo: it's not "susceptible to becoming graveling ill", but rather "gravely ill". :-D I guess I miss "Dead Like Me". :-)

      Testing

      Yes, if you had symptoms when eating gluten ruling out celiac disease won't necessarily mean you'll be able to eat gluten again, although it might mean that you may be able to be less strict with your gluten-free diet.

      Have you considered the possibility that you might have NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity) rather than celiac disease? They share many of the same symptoms, the difference being that NCGS does not damage the lining of the small bowel. It is 10x more common than celiac disease. There is no test yet available for NCGS. Celiac disease must first be ruled out. In view of your genetic profile, I would give it consideration.

      Help with results

      By mariamccl · Posted

      Hi, 25f who recently had a endoscopy procedure to diagnose celiac disease. Mum and uncle are both diagnosed celiacs. I've had symptoms over the past year - headaches that have become debilitating and frequent, feeling faint and nauseous with high heart rate, diarrhea and constipation, anemia, and recently my periods have become almost non existent. My doctor sent me a letter yesterday saying this " biopsies from the duodenum show some very mild features that could be in keeping with celiac disease but also could be due to other causes". I am waiting on an appointment to see him in the clinic to discuss this but in the meantime I wanted to check if anyone else has experienced this? I was eating plenty of gluten before my camera test and for the past 2 weeks have completely cut it out of my diet and I'm seeing changes in my bowel movements for the first time in my life! Headaches, dizziness etc are still there but maybe it takes longer for them to go away? Any help would be so appreciated -  I feel so lost in this whole process!!

      Did your symptoms improve after going on a gluten-free diet?
