I think this is the primo health food store on Long Island. I don't know if you have a WholeFoods, Henry's, Jimbos, Trader Joes..... Google them. My friend goes to Wild by Nature and says they have loads of gluten free foods.

:) Welcome to Long Island. I shop at Trader Joe's in Merrick, there is also one in Oceanside. You can also go to Fairway in Plainview, they have a larger selection there. There is also Wholefoods in Manhasset.

Cafe Baldo is a Gluten free restaurant and they make gluten free pizza. They are in Wantagh

Hope this helps.

I actually live in Westchester, but DH is from LI and a lot of my friends live there so I am there pretty often. The absolute best restaurant with a gluten-free menu ever is Mama's in Oakdale. I drive like 1 1/2 to go there, that's how good it is!!! They have chicken parm, mozzarella sticks, baked clams... every normal Italian dish you could want and it taste AMAZING!!

Also, Earth Remedies in Wantagh has TONS of gluten-free products, including the most incredible rainbow cookies you will ever have. They have a lot of stuff that you can't normally find in like Whole Foods too, like Glutino bagels, Ener-G sesame pretzels, Namaste cake mix, etc.

I went to the PF Chang's in Westbury a couple months ago and wasn't that comfortable there. They seemed to be a bit clueless. THe one by me in White Plains is much better.

Yes, everyone pretty much got them all...

but also in Plainview (down the block from Fairway, wich is the best!).. B-Well Naturally... I LOVE this store! they have SO many gluten-free items.. it's a whole foods store, and they even sell gluten-free baked ziti, Lasagna (both w/meat and w/out)... that they make there! their chicken salad is WONDERFUl also!!

They also carry the HARD TO FIND new George's gluten-free Pizza! It's expensive for such a little pizza, but it's SOOOOOOO good!

I basically shop btw Fairway and B-Well I hit one, then the other... they're both on Manetto HIll Road.

There is also a Trader Joe's right by there on S.Oyster Bay Road, and a New Whole Foods, on Rt. 107 in Jerricho, but I have found that not much gluten-free stuff is there, and it's very pricy!

If you live in Suffolk, Wild by Nature (like someone said above) is Awesome as well!

Earth Remedies in Wantagh is really good too! Definately as jkmunchkin said, the cookies are AWESOME! also about PF Changs, they wree totally clueless in the Westbury one... BUT , Outback in Westbury is AWESOME! (also in Merrick)

      I'm 67 and have been celiac for 17yrs. I had cataract surgery and they put a gluten lens in my eye. Through a lot of research, I found out about MMA acrylic...it contains gluten. It took 6 months for me to find a DR that would remove it and replace it with a gluten-free lens . I have lost some vision in that eye because of it . I also go to a prosthodontist instead of a regular dentist because they are specialized. He has made me a night guard and a few retainers with no issues... where my regular dentist didn't care. I have really bad reactions to gluten and I'm extremely sensitive, even to CC. I have done so much research on gluten-free issues because of these Drs that just don't care. Gluten is in almost everything shampoo, lotion, food, spices, acrylic, medication even communion wafers! All of my Drs know and believe me I remind them often.... welcome to my world!

      If this applies geographically, in the U.K., physicians will often declare a diagnosis of celiac disease based on the TTG-IGA antibody blood test alone if the score is 10x normal or greater, which your score is. There is very little chance the endoscopy/biopsy will contradict the antibody blood test.

      TTG IgA reference range 0.0 to 14.9 KU/L

      What was the reference range for that test? Each lab uses different reference ranges so a raw score like that makes it difficult to comment on. But it looks like a rather large number.

      I have had the tTG-IgA blood test my result are >250.0  I am waiting for the appointment with the gastroenterologist for endoscopy and biopsies.    what are the chances it’s not coeliacs.  waiting and not knowing is so hard. Especially the eating of gluten knowing it may be causing you more harm and coping with the symptoms.
