Nola Restaurant In New Orleans By Emeril

I tried to handpick a restaurant for a trip to New Orleans based on their online menus. I was really unsure I'd find anyone who understood gluten in the Crescent City, but decided on NOLA restaurant in the French Quarter. We had advance reservations(needed) and I was thrilled when the wait staff said they had several choices the chef could suggest from the menu and were very careful in the presentation of the meals. I had no problems from eating there(it's been 6 days now) and would recommend it to travellers to New Orleans. I'd still be careful as the city loves its beignets and croissants, but it was very nice to ask about gluten free choices and not get a blank look !

Given that their prized quarterback, Drew Breese, is gluten-intolerant, I would think all of the nicer joints in NO would be familiar with cooking for us. I THINK I read tha he is also intolerant to other foods.

Glad you had a good experience there. Lots of places in NO understand gluten, particularly those with a real chef. Commander's Palace is another wonderful place.

      Welcome to the forum, @Stuartpope! With Marsh 3b damage to the villous lining of the small bowel, your son is likely deficient in a number of vitamin and minerals due to poor absorption, not just iron. B12 and all the other B vitamins are likely low. I would suggest looking into a high quality gluten-free B complex, D3, magnesium glycinate (the form of magnesium is important) and zinc. A children's multivitamin likely will not be potent enough. We commonly recommend this combo of vitamins and minerals to new celiacs as adults. Thing is, you would want to consult with a pediatrician about dosage because of his young age. In time, with the gluten-free diet his villi will rebound but he may need a kick start right now with some high potency supplements.

      Hey yall!  New Celiac mama trying to help my son! My 3 year old was just diagnosed with Marsh 3b by a biopsy. We started this journey due to him being severely anemic (ferritin levels 1.2) He has had  3 iron infusions to help with the anemia. He has also been gluten free for a month. He is still having leg/ joint pain( he described a burning/ hurting) Im trying to help with his leg pain. He has trouble playing ( spending most days on the couch) He tells me 5/6X a day that his legs are hurting. Gets worse when walking or  playing. We have done OTC pain meds/ heating pad/ warm baths. What else can I do to help him be a kid.     Thanks for the help

      Not sure about the state of my osteopenia. I haven't had a DEXA scan done since about age 50 and I'm now 74. No fractures, though. I have significant curvature of the upper spine (kyphosis) but that was well along by the time I was diagnosed with celiac disease almost 25 years ago. So, I think it may have been arrested at least.

      Zinc is also a very important supplement when it comes to infection resistance.

      I've got my initial appointment with a gastro for a month from now and then I'm assuming we'll schedule my endoscopy from there for a confirmation of the diagnosis. I feel like it's pretty clear since my results are 18x the normal range but I know an endoscopy is the standard. I'll definitely post how that goes. How are you doing with your osteopenia since your diagnosis? Have you found any relief? Thank you for the support and answering my questions. This is all kind of overwhelming.
