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.

      Constant low back, abdominal and pelvic pain!

      By cristiana · Posted

      I think sometimes the pain described here can be a result of a sort of 'perfect storm' of contributing factors.  Recently I had an appalling bout of lower back pain, lower burning gut pain and what felt like cramps.  I then started to think about what could have caused it and I realised it was several things that had set it off: I'd been carrying heavy luggage (back strain); I had been sitting down in a car for too long and wearing a tight belt (I have pudendal nerve issues and sacroiliac issues and this exacerbates the pain), and I had bloating and burning pain in my colon caused by eating too much soy, latte and caffeine, I guess putting further pressure in the lower abdomen.  I had this same pain prior to my diagnosis and a couple of years post-diagnosis, I'd quite forgotten how unpleasant it was.

      Have this rash forming on the back of my legs. Looking for relief outside of going to the doctor.

      HI @Kirbyqueen That's great news your insurance will be kicking in soon.  Sorry to see that you have been dealing with this for six months now, but I do hope you have managed to find some relief with some of the suggestions in the meantime. Perhaps come back and let us know what the doctor says. Cristiana

      I agree, and hopefully your doctor will contact you soon about the next step, which will likely be an endoscopy to confirm your diagnosis. Do you have celiac disease symptoms?

      Still dealing with this rash on my legs. I've eliminated ringworm (through use of topical ointments). And I also know it's not shingles, as I've never had chickenpox before and I'm still fairly young. Through a lot of online research, I'm leaning more towards dermatitis herpetiformis, eczema, or psoriasis. I've actually got a doctor's appointment in May (finally got some insurance) and I'm going to bring it up then. I'm feeling really hopeful and excited to maybe be getting some relief soon.   Big thanks to everyone for the suggestions and positive thoughts!

      You have three celiac disease specific antibody tests that are positive: Endomysial  Antibody IGA (aka, EMA), tTG-IGA, and tTG_IGG. Furthermore, your Immunoglobulin A at 55 is low, meaning you are IGA deficient. This one is not an antibody test for celaic disease per se but a measure of "total IGA" levels and if low (yours is low) it can suppress the individual antibody scores and even cause false negatives. So, yes, it definitely looks like you have celiac disease.   Do not yet begin a gluten free diet as your physician may refer you to a GI doc for an endoscopy/biopsy of the small bowel lining for confirmation of the antibody testing. This may help:
