I just have one big question: why do I get sick almost every time I eat at a restaurant, no matter what I might eat? Last week Red Lobster nearly killed me! lol Looking back, I didn't drown myself in gluten.

Is it mostly a cross-contamination problem?

Makes me want to avoid eating out at all!

I'm no officially dx yet. Just a family history and all the symptoms. After my blood tests next week I am going gluten-free.

It's either going to be cross contamination, or maybe a gluten-containing ingredient that was overlooked (such as a seasoning or something).

Red Lobster is definitely not the most Celiac friendly place... Try eating off the gluten free menu at Outback or PF Changs first and see if you still feel horrible.

I don't know, but I gave up eating out for two months and felt better then I have in a year! Even with stuff that should be safe. Anyway, I tried again without success at Chipotle's. I know it isn't in my head, but it is very frustrating!

      Thank you for the links to the articles.  Interesting reading. I'll be telling my brother in law because he has a lot of pain

      Oats naturally contain a protein called avenin, which is similar to the gluten proteins found in wheat, barley, and rye. While avenin is generally considered safe for most people with celiac disease, some individuals, around 5-10% of celiacs, may also have sensitivity to avenin, leading to symptoms similar to gluten exposure. You may fall into this category, and eliminating them is the best way to figure this out. Some people substitute gluten-free quinoa flakes for oats if they want a hot cereal substitute. If you are interested in summaries of scientific publications on the topic of oats and celiac disease, we have an entire category dedicated to it which is here: https://www.celiac.com/celiac-disease/oats-and-celiac-disease-are-they-gluten-free/
