Blanc Burgers And Bottles

So, I discovered Blanc on the Plaza in Kansas City several months ago. Since then I would easily say we've driven down from Liberty at least every 10 days for me to have a Gluten free burger. Their burgers are easily the best I've had and the "Kneaded Specialties" gluten-free buns just was the icing on the cake. Well today's experience was really saddening. The waitress today suggested a daily grind special which was supposed to be a smoked blue cheese burger. I of course ordered it on a gluten free bun. The burger arrived and looked tasty but after a couple bites I knew something was wrong. The kitchen made a mistake and put a Barley burger on a gluten-free bun and sent it out to me. A person that is gluten intolerant...... When I called attention to something not right it was taken away immediately. A mgr was then at our table saying they had taken the burger off our bill....gee...I barely ate it. A companion complained that in the grand scheme that wasn't much compensation she then seemed miffed and came back with 60% off. I realize I take a risk every time I eat out but I was so saddened because of how I loved this place that I made a comment on their facebook page. I wasn't rude.... I said I loved them..... I just relayed my disappointment at the error. My post was removed without even a comment... This disappoints me even more......

I live in KC, too. I haven't tried Blanc Burgers. That sucks. Apparently the manager doesn't understand that that can make you very sick. That wasn't a little accidental crumb, it was a whole poison burger.

      Reflux related cough anyone?

      By cristiana · Posted

      UPDATE I've been asked for an update by someone who sent a PM, but It's best to post health info publicly because this means fellow Mods can make sure I'm staying on the straight and narrow path with any advice I'm giving out! Alex...   Yes, my symptoms did slowly improve.  They started around October, from memory.  Approaching Christmas I remember the feeling as if there were feathers irritating my chest in my lower throat and in my lungs, and things like scented candles made things even worse.  I had a endoscopy and they found nothing wrong, I also had a chest X-Ray because of the cough which lasted more than six weeks and nothing showed. In the end I think the end it settled because I was doing the following: following a reflux/gastritis diet  (you can find lots of these diets on line, which focus on a low fat, low acidndiet, avoiding spices etc, avoiding alcohol and coffee etc) not eating three hours before I went to bed, which means going to bed with an empty stomach sleeping with a wedge pillow, which I still do, five years on... taking Gaviscon Advanced before bedtime, and after meals (not much, just a large teaspoon) using a blue Salbutamol inhaler, I think it was two puffs in the morning and two puffs at night. I felt a lot better after about three or four months.  I then only used the inhaler and Gaviscon when I had to, if I started to feel my chest was getting irritated again. I find keeping on top of reflux symptoms the way forward.  My gastroenterologist told me that the cough was to do with reflux/gasses in the gut coming up that can irritate the throat and airways and the fact I noticed improvement when using Gaviscon showed that that was what was causing it, because it provides a barrier that stops this happening. From the Gaviscon UK website: "It creates a protective barrier or raft over the Stomach contents (which is mostly acid, but also pepsin and bile)." https://www.gaviscon.co.uk/#:~:text=It creates a protective barrier,water and other neutral substances. This protective barrier stopped the contents of my stomach from coming up to irritate my throat, as I understand it, and allowed any irritation in my throat to settle. I do still take Gaviscon if I eat a late meal but not every day.  I hope this helps.  Do come back to me on this thread if I can help further. Cristiana

      What might this EMA result mean?

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Let us know what you find out, the reference ranges should appear on the original test results.

      Kratom

      By MommaBear82 · Posted

      Hepatotoxicity DOES happen with kratom. It happened to my husband. He turned yellow with jaundice and his urine became brown. This was only after taking it three times. I know because I was the one who gave it to him, unfortunately. People should realize that it can and does happen.

      No other tests. This was from about 10 years ago, I noticed it when checking through my all bloods to look for patterns.  I will go back to my doctor...

      Were there any other tests besides the EMA run for celiac disease? If not, you should request them. At minimum, "total IGA" and "tTG-IGA" should be ordered. A more complete celiac panel would also include the DGP-IGA, DGP-IGG and TTG-IGG. And very importantly, you should not have been reducing gluten consumption in the weeks/months leading up to the testing blood draw.
