Thanks!

This summer we cooked at our home mostly but there is a health food store you can get supplies from. I think the name of the store is Health-A-Rama. They have gluten-free cereal, flours, rice milk and several gluten-free staples. They also have supplements and a small section of frozen foods and organic veggies. I think they might have switched ownership over the summer but I was able to get a few things while we were visting. Things did seem pricey but it's a small store.

I love eating in the Outerbanks but I haven't eaten out there since going gluten-free. There are several local, specialty resturants that you might try contacting before you go. I called the health food store and they said there is a vegetarian rest. that has fish also. I think the resturant is really casual and serves some alternative grains. They couldn't give me any more resturant ideas. Of course there's an Outback in Nags Head....you probably want something else while on vaction but it is a standby. :lol: If you like seafood.....Seamark in Kitty Hawk has a nice seafood department and they run weekly specials. They also have a small counter area that you can eat at (in the middle of the store.) They have sandwiches, soups, and do steamed seafood. You might check to see if the steaming seasoning is gluten-free. They prepare the food right in front of you. :)

Hope you have a great time!!!

I usually eat at Tortuga's Lie and get the steamed shrimp and veggies.

      HI @Kirbyqueen That's great news your insurance will be kicking in soon.  Sorry to see that you have been dealing with this for six months now, but I do hope you have managed to find some relief with some of the suggestions in the meantime. Perhaps come back and let us know what the doctor says. Cristiana

      I agree, and hopefully your doctor will contact you soon about the next step, which will likely be an endoscopy to confirm your diagnosis. Do you have celiac disease symptoms?

      Still dealing with this rash on my legs. I've eliminated ringworm (through use of topical ointments). And I also know it's not shingles, as I've never had chickenpox before and I'm still fairly young. Through a lot of online research, I'm leaning more towards dermatitis herpetiformis, eczema, or psoriasis. I've actually got a doctor's appointment in May (finally got some insurance) and I'm going to bring it up then. I'm feeling really hopeful and excited to maybe be getting some relief soon.   Big thanks to everyone for the suggestions and positive thoughts!

      You have three celiac disease specific antibody tests that are positive: Endomysial  Antibody IGA (aka, EMA), tTG-IGA, and tTG_IGG. Furthermore, your Immunoglobulin A at 55 is low, meaning you are IGA deficient. This one is not an antibody test for celaic disease per se but a measure of "total IGA" levels and if low (yours is low) it can suppress the individual antibody scores and even cause false negatives. So, yes, it definitely looks like you have celiac disease.   Do not yet begin a gluten free diet as your physician may refer you to a GI doc for an endoscopy/biopsy of the small bowel lining for confirmation of the antibody testing. This may help:

      Hi, I received my labs via email yesterday and have not heard back from my doctor yet. Can anyone tell me if these results indicate I have Celiac?      Endomysial Antibody IgAPositive  Ft-Transglutaminase (tTG) IgA6  H0-3 (U/mL) - Negative 0 - 3 - Weak Positive 4 - 10 - Positive >10 - Tissue Transglutaminase (tTG) has been identified as the endomysial antigen. Studies have demonstrated that endomysial IgA antibodies have over 99% specificity for gluten-sensitive enteropathy. FImmunoglobulin A, Qn, Serum55  L87-352 (mg/dL) Ft-Transglutaminase (tTG) IgG183  H0-5 (U/mL) - Negative 0 - 5 - Weak Positive 6 - 9 - Positive >9
