Yay!!! It will be the first one to open here in MN and it will be only 10 min away from me! I have never shopped there but have heard it is great! Can you get a lot of gluten-free stuff there? Is it reasonably priced? For those Minnesotans on the board it is due to open this spring in St. Louis Park! I am so excited!!

There isn't lots of gluten-free specialty stuff, because they primarily carry their own brand, but a lot of what they carry is gluten-free as well. What I like is that I can get good quality stuff - without stupid additives - at reasonable prices. It's where I stock up on Almond Breeze and Imagine Broths.

I just tried some of their own brand of Wheat/Gluten free (also casein free) banana waffles....much better than the Van's gluten free ones. I think they might have had other waffle flavors, but I only got this one. Very mild banana flavor, but great texture and toasted up great! I also get some Thai things there...Pad Thai mixes, stuff like that. I didn't find a whole lot of specifically gluten free foods there, though. They have a gluten free list of foods they carry, usually on a rack near the doors. But there are actually more things than they have on the list, so it's not really that all inclusive. THey have a good mayonnaise that I learned about from my mom, by the way.

That's great!! I really am looking for more cheaper brands of reg stuff that is gluten-free. I am excited!

I wish we had them up here. I have a friend in San Fran who always tells me about the good stuff he buys in Trader Joes. He has even tried the gluten-free stuff in case I get to go back down to San Fran. He told me it is good stuff.

      probably not your situation @Mimiof2, but allow me to add one more to @trents list of celiac-mimics: "olmesartan-induced sprue-like enteropathy"

      My dad had an Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm.  Fortunately, it was discovered during an exam.  The doctor could feel my dad's heart beating in his stomach/abdomen.  The aneurysm burst when the doctor first touched it in surgery.  Since he was already hooked up to the bypass machine, my dad survived ten more years.  Close call! Triple A's can press on the nerves in the spinal cord causing leg pain.  I'm wondering if bowing the head might have increased the pressure on an aneurysm and then the nerves.   https://gulfcoastsurgeons.com/understanding-abdominal-aortic-aneurysm-symptoms-and-causes/ Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm Presenting as a Claudication https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC4040638/

      You have an odd story there. To me, the mechanical trigger suggests a mechanical problem and lower leg pain is a classic sciatica symptom. The fact that the clear mechanical linkage is no longer there does not take away from the fact that it was - maybe something shifted and the simple alignment is no longer there. There's also a good chance I am wrong and it's something else entirely. @Scott Adams's mention of shingles is interesting. It seems possible but unlikely to me, but who knows. However, I am writing here to reinforce the idea of getting the shingles vaccine. Ask anyone who has ever had shingles and they will bend your ear telling you how bad it is. I watched my wife go through it and it scared the bejeebers out of me. Even if you had the chicken pox vaccine, you really want to get the shingles vaccine.

      Oddly this effect has gone now, just happened yesterday evening, the nerve pain is now back to its usual "unpredictable" random self again - but that was the only time I ever had some mechanical trigger for it, don't know why! There's no (or wasn't) actual pain in my neck - it was inside the leg, but when I looked down, now though, the leg pain just comes and goes randomly as before again.

      I had MRI scan a few years ago showing everything normal, and now it's no longer triggering the nerve pain when I bow my head today - it only seemed to happen yesterday, and that was the only time it happened! Just seemed weird as no movement has caused my usual nerve pain before. It's normally just random.
