I don't know if anyone is from this area or not, but I go to Ursinus College and have frequented the Collegeville Diner the past few weeks. Usually I keep it simple, asking only for an omelet (just veggie and cheese, I haven't tried to check about the sausage or bacon yet) and asking them to clean the grill before cooking my homefries. But Friday night we went there before our gymnastics meet (Saturday), and I decided I needed something a little more filling than an omelet. After speaking with the waitress, I was quite confident that they were able to prepare my meal safely. I had a very delicious Chicken Caprese, baked potato, and steamed cauliflower. And let me tell you, the portions are HUGE! There was enough chicken for two full meals (and I eat a lot!).

I haven't asked, but I'm wondering if their rice pudding (home-made) is gluten-free. Next time I'm in there (at a less busy time!), maybe I'll try to find out. All their desserts look fabulous, and rice pudding has become one of my favorite desserts! I'm also going to suggest that they get in contact with www.glutenfreerestaurants.org . There are no restaurants on that website for the entire state of PA... that just needs to change! All the waitstaff is very friendly and accomodating; it would be very nice if we celiacs could know exactly what we could eat there. Since I believe most stuff is made from scratch there, I would think there's a lot more that we can eat than I do!

      Burning sensation when I wake up

      By Zuma888 · Posted

      I forgot to mention that exercise also triggers it, except for the period right before I tried the gluten challenge where I could do moderately intense workouts without getting this burning sensation and extreme fatigue for days afterwards.

      Burning sensation when I wake up

      By Zuma888 · Posted

      Hello everyone, I am 30 years old, female, and have Hashimoto's thyroiditis and suspected celiac disease (wasn't able to complete a gluten challenge, but have the symptoms and HLA-DQ8) or at least some kind of gluten sensitivity. When I first got diagnosed with Hashimoto's thyroiditis, I went on AIP and never reintroduced gluten. Whenever I would eat a little bit of gluten I would wake up feeling very old, achy, and unrested, with a burning sensation everywhere especially on my hip bones and chest area. It felt like severe inflammation. This would also happen during stressful times and times where I hadn't been sleeping well.  This symptom had decreased in intensity and completely gone away before I tried to do a gluten challenge over a month ago. Now it is back and I have it every day when I wake up. It usually goes away or decreases in intensity after a few hours of being awake. Is this inflammation or something else, and is it related to Hashimoto's thyroiditis or celiac (or gluten sensitivity) or both? Could it be related to not moving for long periods of time (as is the case when I am sleeping)? I was also extremely sensitive to all foods when I first started AIP about 3 or 4 years ago, but with time, I could tolerate more foods and even gluten in small amounts occasionally. Now my stomach is super sensitive, I am afraid to eat again, and my stools are abnormal. Thank you.

      Inflammation and Menier’s disease link?

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      @MagsM Did your doctor do the DGP IgG and DGP IgA tests or the tTg IgG test.  It looks like he just tested total IgG.   Were you taking any medications or over the counter stuff before the test?  Some can suppress the immune system and cause false negatives.
