So I went to Rapid City yesterday and did some heavy duty shopping. Stopped at Lintz Brothers on the way back. I got their gluten-free pizza with mushrooms. FRESH mushrooms, not canned! It was the best pizza I've had since I left Connecticut. As a matter of fact we made another stop before returning home and I made sure the car was locked because (even though I had guitars and several bags full of new jeans and make-up and all sorts of other stuff), I didn't want anyone stealing my leftover PIZZA.

 

I was a little nervous about mushrooms - I hadn't tried them yet since I went gluten-free. I was also nervous about the tomato sauce on two counts - one, I have been having trouble with nightshades (or at least potatoes), and two, I was worried about the possibility of a corn plastic lining in the can.

 

I did NOT get sick at all. Just had some more for lunch. I'm doing the happy dance!!!

That is a big deal! Congrats on finding a healthy safe place to eat!

 

With all your food restrictions, that is a big accomplishment! I know what it's like to have to deal with multiple food restrictions and it's always such a great feeling when you find a place that serves safe delicious food. :)

That is AWESOME! I'll do a little happy dance for you too.

Hooray! My neighbor just told me she is going there tomorrow. She's going to get me one to go! If I can control my willpower I can bag up individual servings and put it in the freezer. (Fat chance. I'll probably eat the whole thing!)

I lied to myself about pizza like that once upon a time. I don't bother anymore, I know it'll be gone in 24-48 hours no matter the size. :lol:

Beau-Jo's in Rapid city is the only one I have been to yet... LOVE their honey cheese bread (gluten-free of course)  where is Lintz Brothers at?

Are you coming from Rapid? If so, go south on 79. Just past Hermosa you'll see the turnoff (on your right) for Rte. 36 heading toward Custer. It's the first building on the left. (You can see it from 79.) They are the ones the Rapid City journal just named Best Pizza in the Hills. You'll love it!

Nothing like a treat of good pizza to warm the heart!  :D  Have you tried a homemade cauliflower pizza?  omg!  It is soooo good.  Even my gluten eating-thinks-he-would-die-without-gluten son loved it.  He even

asked me to make him some! 

bartfull Rising Star

Somebody here mentioned that years ago, but if you could post your recipe I bet we'd all like to try it. :)

Was this in Rapid City, South Dakota?  

bartfull Rising Star

It's just south of Rapid City in Hermosa, S.D. Here's a link: Open Original Shared Link

Woooooooooooo Hoooooooooooooo Barty! I'm doing happy jumping jacks for you!

cap6 Enthusiast

1 cup raw grated (or chopped in food processer) cauliflower

1 egg

1 cup mozzaretta cheese

1 tsp oregano

 2 tsp parsley

(any other spices you might want to add)

 

Spray pizza pan with non-stick oil.

(optional that I use is to coat the pan with melted coconut oil and then sprinkle pan lightly with parmesan cheese. I use those pizza pans with holes in them.)

 

Combine the chopped cauliflower, egg, mozzarella cheese & spices.  Press evenly on to baking pan, making a thin crust.

 

Bake at 450 for 12 to 15 minutes

 

(I personally cook it at 350 for slightly longer as I like a bit more of a crispy crust.  Also double the recipe for two good sized pizza's or one super sized)

 

When done, remove from oven.  Add to the crust sauce and your choice of toppings & cheese.    Bake till bubbly & done.

 

Smack hands when they reach for the last piece!  :D

 

 

you can get this on-line from: You won't believe it's cauliflower pizza crust recipe by PLATSUZIE Sparks Recipes 

 

* I found this took me two or three times before I got the exact thickness of the crust, temp and cooking down.  Add the Parmesan cheese gives the crust a nice golden brown finish.    Enjoy

Thank you!

      Welcome to the celiac.com community, @GlorietaKaro! As Scott indicated, without formal testing for celiac disease, which would require you to have been consuming generous amounts of gluten daily for weeks, it would be not be possible to distinguish whether you have celiac disease or NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity). Their symptoms overlap. The difference being that celiac disease is an autoimmune disorder that damages the lining of the small bowel. We actually no more about celiac disease than we do about NCGS, the mechanism of the latter being more difficult to classify. There are specific antibody tests for celiac disease diagnosis and there is also the endoscopy/biopsy of the small bowel lining. Currently, there are no tests to diagnose NCGS. Celiac disease must first ruled out. Researchers are working on developing testing methods to diagnose celiac disease that do not require a "gluten challenge" which is just out of the question for so many because it poses serious, even life-threatening, health risks. But we aren't there yet.

      I thought this might be of interest regarding anti-EMA testing. Some labs use donated umbilical cord instead of monkey oesophagus. Some labs just provide a +ve/-ve test result but others provide a grade by testing progressively diluted blood sample. https://www.aesku.com/index.php/ifu-download/1367-ema-instruction-manual-en-1/file Fluorescence-labelled anti-tTG2 autoantibodies bind to endomysium (the thin layer around muscle fibres) forming a characteristic honeycomb pattern under the microscope - this is highly specific to coeliac disease. The binding site is extracellular tTG2 bound to fibronectin and collagen. Human or monkey derived endomysium is necessary because tTG2 from other mammals does not provide the right binding epitope. https://www.mdpi.com/1422-0067/26/3/1012

      First, please know that receiving two diagnoses at once, especially one you've never heard of, is undoubtedly overwhelming. You are not alone in this. Your understanding is correct: both celiac disease and Mesenteric Panniculitis (MP) are considered to have autoimmune components. While having both is not extremely common, they can co-occur, as chronic inflammation from one autoimmune condition can sometimes be linked to or trigger other inflammatory responses in the body. MP, which involves inflammation of the fat tissue in the mesentery (the membrane that holds your intestines in place), is often discovered incidentally on scans, exactly as in your case. The fact that your medical team is already planning follow-up with a DEXA scan (to check bone density, common after a celiac diagnosis) and a repeat CT is a very proactive and prudent approach to monitoring your health. Many find that adhering strictly to the gluten-free diet for celiac disease helps manage overall inflammation, which may positively impact MP over time. It's completely normal to feel uncertain right now. Your next steps are to take this one day at a time, focus on the gluten-free diet as your primary treatment for celiac, and use your upcoming appointments to ask all your questions about MP and what the monitoring plan entails. This dual diagnosis is a lot to process, but it is also the starting point for a managed path forward to better health. 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.):

      Your experience is absolutely valid, and you are not "nuts" or a "complete weirdo." What you are describing aligns with severe neurological manifestations of gluten sensitivity, which is a recognized, though less common, presentation. Conditions like gluten ataxia and peripheral neuropathy are documented in medical literature, where gluten triggers an autoimmune response that attacks the nervous system, leading to symptoms precisely like yours—loss of coordination, muscle weakness, fasciculations, and even numbness. The reaction you had from inhaling flour is a powerful testament to your extreme sensitivity. While celiac disease is commonly tested, non-celiac gluten sensitivity with neurological involvement is harder to diagnose, especially since many standard tests require ongoing gluten consumption, which you rightly fear could be dangerous. Seeking out a neurologist or gastroenterologist familiar with gluten-related disorders, or consulting a specialist at a major celiac research center, could provide more validation and possibly explore diagnostic options like specific antibody tests (e.g., anti-gliadin or transglutaminase 6 antibodies) that don't always require a gluten challenge. You are not alone; many individuals with severe reactivity navigate a world of invisible illness where their strict avoidance is a medical necessity, not a choice. Trust your body's signals—it has given you the most important diagnosis already.

      Some members here take GliadinX (a sponsor here) if they eat out in restaurants or outside their homes. It has been shown in numerous studies to break down small amounts of gluten in the stomach, before it reaches your intestines. This would be for small amounts of cross-contamination, and it would not allow any celiac to eat gluten again.
