Uk Celiac Needs Help On Western Usa

Hi everyone!

My girlfriend was diagnosed as having celiac diesease last year and is coping pretty well with her gluten-free diet. In September this year we are going on a 2 week flydrive holiday to the USA and I'm wondering if anyone has any experience of gluten free eating out / shopping in these areas.

LA (Anaheim)

Palm Springs

Lake Havasu

Grand Canyon (Tusayan)

Las Vegas

Yosemite

San Fransico

We've been to the USA quite a lot before but this will be out first trip since she has known about needing to eat gluten free food. Can anyone recommend any restaurants in these sort of places where we could eat that do gluten free food? Also what about shops that sell gluten free food and snacks that we could get hold of for on the road? Oh and is anyone knows any sort of snacks you can get from gas stations that are gluten free, just in case we need to get them this would be a great help.

I know its a lot of things to ask for but any help you can give would be really appriciated.

Regards,

Andy Roberts

Northampton, United Kingdom

It's actually for San Diego area, but I expect a lot of these restaurants are throughout California. As for gas stations, a lot of them these days have fruit. Lay's plain potato chips are gluten-free, not very good for you though. :lol:

Lol... I really wish that San Diego site was significantly useful for the rest of CA. :-) Alas...

It's certainly a place to start, of course, though PF Chang's "fast food" Pei Wei doesn't have many locations in CA - very far and few in between. There are, of course, a number of PF Chang's in various locations (including SF and the LA area). (You can go to their homepage to find locations. Same thing applies to Outback.)

You mention Anaheim, so I'm assuming Disney; they're very accomodating at the park.

We also have a number of health food stores that will have foods you can have including Trader Joe's, Wild Oats, and Whole Foods. (Again, their homepages have locations all over the place...)

      Trying to read my lab results

      Hi Scott, yes I have had symptoms for years and this is the second GI I have seen and he could not believe I have never been tested. He called later today and I am scheduled for an endoscopy. Is there a way to tell how severe my potential celiac is from the results above? What are the chances I will have the biopsy and come back negative and we have to keep...

      Constant low back, abdominal and pelvic pain!

      I agree christina, there is definitely many contributing factors! I have the pain today, my pelvis, hips and thighs ache! No idea why. But i have been sitting at work for 3 days so im thinking its my back. This disease is very mysterious (and frustrating) but not always to blame for every pain.

      Why?

      "her stool study showed she had extreme reactions to everything achievement on it long course of microbials to treat that." The wording of this part of the sentence does not make any sense at all. I don't mean to insult you, but is English your first language? This part of the sentence sounds like it was generated by translation software.

      Why?

      What kind of stool test was done? Can you be more specific?

      Why?

      Perhaps I should also have said that in addition to showing a very high response to gluten, her stool study showed that she had extreme reactions to everything achievement on it long course of microbials to treat that.
