Dominos

Just been refused the £5:99 meal deal in a gluten free option. Said it was £9:99. 

Yet more discrimination. Do these company's think it's just a life choice?

First, it costs more to train employees in how to handle gluten free pizza products, and second keeping gluten-free dough around that might get tossed it it is not used is expensive.  But I am not even going to get into the safety of eating gluten-free pizza from Dominos.  Most celiacs avoid Dominos like the plague.  The risk for cross contact is very high.  I would not eat a pizza from there even if they paid me $100 dollars or pounds (okay maybe a million).  

I do not know where you live, but since you use British currency, Head over to Costa’s Coffee for a gluten-free chicken wrap.  Consider yourself lucky because in the US, Starbucks just eliminated their gluten-free breakfast sandwich.  ?

I get your frustration.  I am sorry.  Celiac disease sucks. But so does breast cancer, lupus, and any other illness you can name.  

Learn to make pizza or purchase a certified gluten-free frozen pizza and heat it yourself.  At least you you will get some pizza and you will not get a celiac flare-up.  

Hang in there!

      HLA-DQ2 is NOT a continuum 2.01 to 2.99, but I don’t understand HLA genetics well enough to explain it further.  It is not just one gene that is either this or that.
    • trents
      Okay, I'm taking a guess here. We are used to hearing in layman terms that having either the HLA-DQ2 or the HLA-DQ8 gene, either heterozygous or homozygous, presents the possibility of developing active celiac disease. So, I'm guessing that the HLA-DQ2 gene is actually a range of variants (2.01-2.99) with HLA-DQ 2.5 being in the centerpiece of the range. I'm also guessing that "permissive" is equivalent to "possessing the possibility" to develop active celiac disease and does not address the issue of hetero vs. homozygus per se. But the fact that 2.01,2.01 is a couplet may indicated homozygousity? All wild guesses.

      I received the results that my child has the genes for celiac disease (she is still undergoing testing and it has been complicated). Can someone explain if this is homozygous HLA DQ 2.5 or not? The interpretation just says permissive for celiac disease. Thank you! DQ Alpha 1  05:01, 5 DQ Beta 1 02:01, 02:01 DQ serologic equivalent 2,2

      I am taking thiamine hydrochloride. It's been over a week, and the burning seems to be gone. I am also taking a lower dose B complex with iron. Thank you so much for your help!

      No. It's over the counter. Readily available on Amazon. Good bio availability but shelf-life is not as good as thiamine mononitrate which is the most common form found in over the counter vitamin products.
