This restaurant is actually very close to my sons GI Dr's office.  The 2 times we've gone in there have been disasters! And that's not even really about the gluten free we need.

 

The first time the service was just soooo bad.  Was told it was our waitress' 1st day.

 

The next time (about 6 months later) I realized they only gave us the gluten-free menus...which don't have any prices on them...and are more of a food allergies than gluten-free menu.  The service was again HORRIBLE (the waitress asked how us gals were doing--only my son & me sitting at the table!) and I was again told that it was our waitress' 1st day.

 

DS says he'll never go back there & I have to agree!

Our experiences have always been good. Only once have they been slow, and messed up my order. Luckily it was obvious - sauce all over my salmon and rice.

I've eaten there probably 50 times since going gluten-free.

I know every location is different, though.

While travelling through the US in 2012, we dined at BJ's in El Paso and Oklahoma City. Both experiences were very good.

      Let me hasten to add that if you will be undergoing an endoscopy/biopsy, it is critical that you do not begin efforts to reduce gluten beforehand. Doing so will render the results invalid as it will allow the small bowel lining to heal and, therefore, obscure the damage done by celiac disease which is what the biopsy is looking for.

      That’s a really tough situation. A few key points: as mentioned, a gluten challenge does require daily gluten for several weeks to make blood tests meaningful, but negative tests after limited exposure aren’t reliable. Dermatitis herpetiformis can also be tricky to diagnose unless the biopsy is taken from normal-looking skin next to a lesion. Some people with celiac or DH don’t react every time they’re exposed, so lack of symptoms doesn’t rule it out. Given your history and family cancer risk, this is something I’d strongly discuss with a celiac-experienced gastroenterologist or dermatologist before attempting a challenge on your own, so risks and benefits are clearly weighed.

      https://celiac.org/glutenexposuremarkers/    yes, two hours after accidents ingesting gluten I am vomiting and then diarrhea- then exhaustion and a headache. see the article above- There is research that shows our reactions.

      Concerning the EMA positive result, the EMA was the original blood test developed to detect celiac disease and has largely been replaced by the tTG-IGA which has a similar reliability confidence but is much less expensive to run. Yes, a positive EMA is very strong evidence of celiac disease but not foolproof. In the UK, a tTG-IGA score that is 10x normal or greater will often result in foregoing the endoscopy/biopsy. Weaker positives on the tTG-IGA still trigger the endoscopy/biopsy. That protocol is being considered in the US but is not yet in place.
