HI

I have an aquaintence who is vegan and celiac. She is actually from another board (endometriosis that I moderate). Anyhow, she is coming to East Lansing, MIchigan and I wondered what was available that was both vegan and celiac as far as restraunts go?

My brother lives there and he told me we went to Carraba's Italian Grill... they menu is on line so you can check it out and see if there's something she'd like.

i wouldn't recommend carraba's... i am dairy free (like vegans) and find pretty much nothing to eat on their gluten-free menu, and it's laden with many cheeses! sans cheese and meat = just some veggies. it was really tough there.

You may just want to ask your friend for suggestions as to what she generally eats. I imagine that any place with a good salad and an ability to mix it in a fresh bowl with oil and vinegar would probably be a good bet. If not, you might want to go with some sort of reliable Asian place (for tofu/rice dishes) and bring your own gluten free soy sauce. I have a friend who's vegan, and when she came to visit, there was almost nothing in common that we could both eat, so we went grocery shopping together and just cooked our separate stuff and ate it together. Sorry I don't have better advice--it takes so much dedication and vigilance to remain on the gluten free diet that I can't imagine further restricting foods.

      It's great to hear that there are some good doctors out there, and this is an example of why having a formal diagnosis can definitely be helpful.

      Update: I have a wonderful new gastroenterologist. She wants to be sure there’s nothing more serious, like refractory celiac, going on. She ordered various tests including some micronutrient tests that no one has ever ordered before.  I’m deficient in folate and zinc and starting supplements for both. I’m so glad I decided to go to a new GI!

      Autoimmune diseases tend to cluster. Many of them are found close together on the chromosomes.

      Just giving another update... I was referred to rheumatology, and they suspect that I may also be dealing with fibromyalgia (it has not been formally diagnosed, but just suggested at this point).  So, I am continuing with the anti-inflammatory diet and vitamins and still working to keep getting rid of all these hidden gluten sources, but I also do have another possible explanation for some of the issues that I'm dealing with.

      I would pressure the lab to do the IgA control test for free so that you won't write a poor review about their testing services. You could get this done at any time, whether or not you are gluten-free, however, the celiac disease Tissue Transglutaminase tTG-IgA test must be done after you've been eating lots of gluten for around 6 weeks. This way you could salvage the results of your tTG-IgA test, as long as you were eating lots of gluten beforehand.
