Most of the chain restaurants that are mentioned on this site have locations in the area. A local chain - Austin Grill - serves Tex-Mex and they have a gluten free menu.

Do you know what area you'll be staying in. I'm not familar with the Maryland suburbs but someone might have specific suggestions for that side of town.

We will be staying in Arlington, close to the Rosslyn Metro stop.

There is a Chipotle in that area (many threads here on the pros/cons regarding cc). There is also a BBQ place called Red, Hot and Blue that doesn't have a gluten free menu but I've survived work lunches at their other locations by getting one of their all meat platters - not ideal.

Assuming you are going to take the Metro and do the tourist thing. The American Art museum and National Portrait gallery are just a few blocks north of the Mall. They are open later than the other museums (until 7 on weekdays). One block from there is both a metro stop (Verizon Center/Chinatown) and a Legal Seafood.

P F Chang's chinese and Outback Steak house are 2 chains with gluten-free options. Although I wouldn't trust the fortune cookies or condiments that PF Changs gives out with the gluten-free options.

Thanks! I will suggest one of those places to some friends. Luckily I will have use of a kitchen for all but one night.

One question about PF Changs, (we don't have one in SWVA), will there be any shellfish or peanut cc issues I need to consider?

What part of SW Va? I frequently visit family around Abingdon and am always looking for gluten free option there or along I-81.

Roanoke, it's 2-3 hrs I think from Abingdon. We have Abuelos, Caberra's (Italian), and there's a restaurant in downtown Roanoke called Nico's. If you get reservations, they will prepare a Gluten-free meal.

I am not sure p-f changs will work. My son was diagnosed with more allergies this week. We added chicken, fish, rye, and barley. Ha, ha. The doctor was surprised but I wasn't. I knew a long time ago that he reacted to rye and barley. She said there was no way he could be celiac, but tested him anyway.

As for our trip, I will be staying in a hotel. Grandma doesn't understand even the allergies.

      So, I contacted Scott Adams, the author of that article and also the creator/admin of this website, and pointed out to him the need to clarify the information in the paragraph in question. He has now updated the paragraph and it is clear that the DGP-IGA does serve the purpose of circumventing the false negatives that IGA deficiencies can generate in the tTG-IGA antibody test.

      Has anyone experimenced enlarged lymph nodes with celiac? Both in the neck and groin area. Imaging of both areas have said that lymph nodes are reactive in nature. However, they have been present for months and just wondering how long this may take to go down. Been gluten-free for about two months. Blood counts are normal.

      Hmm interesting I just assumed that any “IGA” tests including the DPG iga would be negative in a person who is IGA deficient but maybe that is not the case for the DPG test.

      If you were just diagnosed I can say that if you go 100% gluten-free should should see dramatic improvement of your symptoms over the next few months, but the hard part is to stay gluten-free. This article has some detailed information on how to be 100% gluten-free, so it may be helpful (be sure to also read the comments section.):
