I dont know where the thread is but i can tell you you MUST go to Risotteria (risotterianyc.com) while u are here if you havent been there. If u are here on a tuesday, they have gluten-free pasta on tuesdays. Where are you staying? I have been to Sambuca (upper west side) www.sambucanyc.com and i liked it but it has gotten mixed reviews from others. Everyone seems to like Lumi (east side) as well. I dont know if you will be in town long enough to buy food but if u need to pick up anything there are several whole foods, a brand new trader joes in union square, and my personal favorite is Westerly, which is at 54th/8th. For more ideas check out glutenfreerestaurants.org and ask away if you have questions about a particular restaurant! :)

Jen-- the gluten-free pizza is ALWAYS available, as well as yummy risotto and paninis. And be sure to try the carrot cake, it is EXCELLENT! and the fudgie (two chocolate chip cookies w/ frosting in between). And while we're on the subject of desserts (my fav subject) try babycakes as well- its a bakery in the lower east side that was just rated by New York mag the best cupcakes in NYC (and NOT just gluten free cupcakes!) they are gluten-free and dairy free, www.babycakesnyc.com. Gotta love NY, so many options!

Ok so ofcourse you know Rissotteria is a must!

You also have to go to Lumi (I'll be there April 1st for a birthday dinner).

Those are my 2 favorites in the city.

I've heard Peter's is good but haven't tried it yet myself. Same thing with Babycakes. (And as someone said NY Mag just voted them best cupcakes in NYC).

Oh and just so you know, if it is warm when you are here (and hopefully it will be because I'm tired of wearing a winter coat), I've confirmed that the ice cream (obv minus the cone), from the Mister Softee ice cream trucks all over the city is gluten-free. So if you are walking around and just dying to know if you can get delicious ice cream in a cup... you can! (Don't know about the toppings).

Last summer I went to NYC. YES Risoterria is a must! They had a delicious raspberry layer cake when I was there. I almost cried, because I am a true cake-lover. As a tourist, I wanted to hit some of the well-known restaurants, and I found helpful waiters and chefs at Sardi's and Tavern on the Green. I also found health food stores that had amazing selections compared to what I was used to. Also, the Whole Foods at Washington Square had a really nice selection of fresh baked goods that we don't have in California yet. I can't wait to go back to NYC. :D

      Hi Katht - I sympathize with your struggles in following a gluten-free diet and lifestyle. I found out that I had Celiac Disease a few months before I turned 70. I just turned 89 and it has taken me almost 20 years to attain a fairly normal intestinal function. I also lost a lot of weight, down to 100 lb. down from about 140 lb. What Trents wrote you was...

      Hi Colleen Are you supplementing B12/having injections? I have learned recently that sometimes when you start addressing a B12 deficiency, it can temporarily make your symptoms worse. But it is important not to stop the treatment. Regarding your problems with anxiety, again that is another symptom of a B12 deficiency. I didn't know...

      Ferritin levels.  And see what your hemoglobin looks like too, that will tell you if you are anemic?  You can have 'low normal' levels that will not be flagged by blood tests.  I had 'low normal' levels, my lab reading was. c12, just over what was considered normal, but I had small benign lesion on my tongue, and sometimes a sore mouth, and a consultant maxillofacial ordered an iron infusion for me as he felt my levels were too low and if he  raised them to 40, it would help.   Because you are not feeling 100% it might be worth looking at your levels, then discussing with your doctor if they are low normal.  But I stress, don't supplement iron without your levels being monitored, too much is dangerous.

      Hi Katht -  I sympathize with your struggles in following a gluten-free diet and lifestyle. I found out that I had Celiac Disease a few months before I turned 70. I just turned 89 and it has taken me almost 20 years to attain a fairly normal intestinal  function. I also lost a lot of weight, down to 100 lb. down from about 140 lb. What Trents wrote you was very true for me. I am still elimination foods from my diet. One person suggested you keep a food diary and that is a good idea but it is probably best just to do an elimination diet. There are several ne and maybe one for celiacs. I used one for a while and started with plain rice and zucchini and then added back other foods to see if I reacted or not. That helped a great deal but what I did not realise that it would only very small amounts of some foods to cause inflammation in my intestine. Within the last few years I have stopped eating any trace amounts of hot peppers, corn and soy(mostly in supplements) and nuts, (the corn in Tylenol was giving me stomach aches and the nuts were causing foot pains). Starting an elimination diet with white rice is better than brown rice that has some natural toxins. In addition it is very important to drink sufficient plain water. You can find out how much to drink for your height and weight online. I do have difficulty drinking 48 ounces of water but just recently have found an electrolyte supplement that helps me stay well hydrated, Adding the water and electrolytes may reduce muscle cramps and gag spams you wrote about. . Also buy some anti-gluten enzyme capsules to take with meals. I use GliadinX advertised here. These are a lot of things to do at one time as they reflect my 20 years of experience. I hope you do what you can manage to do over time. Good luck and take care.

      Hi Colleen Are you supplementing B12/having injections? I have learned recently that sometimes when you start addressing a B12 deficiency, it can temporarily make your symptoms worse.  But it is important not to stop the treatment.  Regarding your problems with anxiety, again that is another symptom of a B12 deficiency.   I didn't know what anxiety was until it hit me like a train several months before gastrointestinal issues began, so I can certainly relate.   Two books which helped me hugely were At Last A Life by Paul David (there is a website you can look up) and The Depression Cure: The Six-Step Programme to Beat Depression Without Drugs by Dr Steve Llardi.  Although his book is aimed at people who have depression, following the principals he sets out was so helpful in lessening my anxiety.  Llardi suggests we need to focus on getting enough: - physical exercise - omega-3 fatty acids - natural sunlight exposure - restorative sleep - social connectedness - meaningful, engaging activity   ... and we should feel a lot better. That is not to stay you must stop taking medication for depression or anxiety if you have been prescribed it, but adopting the changes Dr Llardi sets out in the book should really help. Can I just ask two more questions:  1) you say that you are B12 deficient, did they test your iron levels too?  If not, you really ought to be checked for deficiency and, 2) did they check your thyroid function, as an overactive thyroid can be cause rapid heartbeat and a lot of coeliacs have thyroid issues?
