Has anyone had problems eating at pf changs? I am kinda nervous about the cross contamination. I am also wondering if their lettuce wraps were on the gluten free menu. THANK U BERRY MUCH IN ADVANCE~!!! :lol: I was also wondering just for fun, :ph34r: what that guy means. THANKS AGAIN FOR THE STUPID QUESTION IN ADVANCE AGAIN.

I usually eat at the bar. I find they give me extra special attention there and are very careful to be sure my food is gluten-free. I try not to go during rush hour. My favorite is the Changs chicken( it is small pieces of chicken fried with a sweet sauce and the steamed veggies . The lettuce wraps don't fill me up at all. The scallops are real good also. I like the teas (not green teas) Their potato vodka martini's are good too. Don't eat the fortune cookie. I'm on a rice free diet but I eat it there. (Brown Rice) They mix up a good sauce - hot sauce, gluten-free soy sauce and mustard. Yummm -- I bring the leftovers home. LindaLee

The Changs Spicy Chicken really reminds me of Chicken McNuggets, which i think it why i like it so much because sometimes I crave chicken McNuggets even though they're awful and I haven't had one in like 10 years.

I eat there a lot and have never had an issue. The gluten free lettuce wraps are the best food ever. I also had their gluten free chocolate truffle last time. Oh my god, can you spell heaven??

I am pretty sure something made me have a reaction there. I ordered the lettuce wraps and used the sauce that they make up. I thought it was something in the sauce, but not sure. I didn't know you could order gluten free at the time.

if you don't order them gluten free, they will make ones that are NOT gluten free. that's probably why you got sick.

I just went to PF yestarday and

1. The waiter was a good guesser, he thought I had celiac

2. I ate about 15 gluten-free lettuce wraps

3. I had these snappy peas with garlic that were quite tasty

4. My cousin tried to "poison me" with the soy sauce (she thought they were all gluten free)(I forgave her because she just bought me 2 swimsuits :P )

5. I felt sick, not because of gluten-free but because I ate all of there new gluten-free dessert, which is like a chocolate truffle moose :blink: (I don't know how to spel) with this wonderful raspberry sauce. I flatly refused to share and on top of the lettuce wraps and the garlic peas, I was really, really full. Thank u sooooo much for all of your suggestions! I am excited for my b-day dinner so I can go to changs instead of eating at my papas kitchen (which is littarly my papas kitchen. (we go out to dindin on bdays and it was mac's and he chose changs for me so I could eat somthing)

:ph34r: Btw, my favorite explanation was that I am feeling violent, my second was I am a ninja!! :lol:

I am brand new at this, both the forum & the disease. My wife and I went to PF Changs last weekend and it was great! Our bartender handed us our gluten-free menu and asked "who has Celiacs?" It was a huge relief I was really worried about eating out. They were helpful and nice and I didn't have a reaction. And the lettuce wraps were great!

      It is concerning.  Unfortunately a lot of doctors don’t know a lot about celiac disease, even some gastroenterologists.  Here is an article for you: Celiac disease and miscarriage I hope you have a successful pregnancy and a healthy baby!

      @RMJ   this is really concerning and my GP has said none of this to me! 
    • RMJ
      Undiagnosed (and thus untreated) celiac disease is associated with a higher chance of miscarriage. The downside of continuing to eat gluten now is increased chance of miscarriage. The downside of stopping gluten now and having to restart later to get a clear, official diagnosis is that you might have worse symptoms eating gluten after being gluten free, but it wouldn’t affect your baby. I know which one I would choose!

      @Blanco - you are most welcome, and I am glad to hear you have made your glutinous bucket list!  Just before my biopsy, after the shed loads of Weetabix and Penguins I had eaten, I had a terrible tight headache across my forehead, something I'd suffered from a child and had just thought was a headache at the time. Maybe my body was trying to tell me something, even back then?  But I know what you mean about black forest gateaux - I've never really liked McDonalds, Burger King or KFC but now wish I could eat all that stuff when my family are tucking into theirs!   On the plus side, you may have seen, in the big supermarkets, particularly Tesco's, the gluten free aisle is ever expanding.  In one of our local branches now it pretty much occupies a whole aisle.   You might have to shop around, but it is amazing what you can find.  Ginster's make their own gluten-free pasties now, for example.  I just need a senior executive from McVities to read this thread because once Penguins are gluten-free, I shall be happy! As for prescriptions, this link should help you find out what you are entitled to - yes, NHS lottery is absolutely how it is! I have personally never bothered with prescriptions, but some do.  I think perhaps what you could do is buy gluten-free for a month, cost it, then see if it's worth your while compared with what the NHS can offer.  With some bread loaves costing £3.50 a shot, it might be worth it? By the way - do keep us posted if you can, we'd love to know if your gastroenterologist insists upon an endoscopy.

      Hi everyone!  I’m beginning to get a bit worried. I have had the first lot of tests done and my bloods are showing as a very strong positive for coeliac. I am also currently pregnant. I have been told to continue to eat gluten until more testing is done (biopsies). If I continue to eat gluten when the chances are very high that I am coeliac, will this harm or affect baby? I feel like I don’t know where to get answers from as I haven’t seen the specialist yet
