I just returned from a family vacation in Lancaster, PA. We stayed at Willow Valley. The chefs were extremely knowledgeable in gluten free foods and preparations. They have a separate area in their kitchen to prepare gluten-free food. They we extremely happy to make anything you wanted. They were very happy to accommadate me. They stock gluten-free breads and pastas along with gluten-free pancake mix. I highly recommend this place if you are staying in Lancaster, PA.

That is great to know we love willow valley! We usually plan a trip to Lancaster every fall, and we always stay at Willow Valley. I have been apprehensive to go this year due to our new diagnosis of celiac but now I am excited! Thanks for the heads up!!

Willow Valley is just outside of Lancaster in Willow Street, PA. It's actually part of a huge retirement home complex and a guest "resort". It's located on 272, just south of Lancaster and only 25 minutes from the MD/PA line. It's minutes from all of the Amish attractions, Dutch Wonderland, Rockvale Square outlets, Tanger outlets, etc.

Thank you SOOOOOOO much for posting this! My grandfather lives in Willow Valley Manor and he always wants to get together for lunch and I always have to say no. Now I can finally enjoy a meal with him again without having to do it picnic style!!!

When going to Willow Valley I ate in the Family restaurant. Ask for Keith or Sahall. They made all my meals for me. They did a great job. I was really able to enjoy my first gluten-free vacation with my family.

I forgot they do have a website. It's Willowvalley.com

      You may also need to supplement with B12 as this vitamin is also involved in iron assimilation and is often deficient in long-term undiagnosed celiac disease.

      @par18, no, Scott's use of the term "false negative" is intentional and appropriate. The "total IGA" test is not a test used to diagnose celiac disease per se. The IGA immune spectrum response encompasses more than just celiac disease. So, "total IGA" refers to the whole pie, not just the celiac response part of it. But if the whole pie is deficient, the spectrum of components making it up will likely be also, including the celiac disease response spectrum. In other words, IGA deficiency may produce a tTG-IGA score that is negative that might have been positive had there not been IGA deficiency. So, the tTG-IGA negative score may be "false", i.e, inaccurate, aka, not to be trusted.

      This may be the problem. Every time you eat gluten it is like giving a booster shot to your immune system, telling it to react and produce antibodies again.

      Scott, I am mostly asymptomatic. I was diagnosed based on high antibodies, low ferritin (3) and low vitamin D (10). I wasn't able to get in for the biopsy until 3 months after the blood test came back. I was supposed to keep eating gluten during this time. Well why would I continue doing something that I know to be harmful for 3 more months to just get this test? So I did quit gluten and had the biopsy. It was negative for celiacs. I continued gluten free with iron supps and my ferritin came back up to a reasonable, but not great level of around 30-35.  Could there be something else going on? Is there any reason why my antibodies would be high (>80) with a negative biopsy? could me intestines have healed that quickly (3 months)?  I'm having a hard time staying gluten free because I am asymptomatic and i'm wondering about that biopsy. I do have the celiacs gene, and all of the antibody tests have always come back high. I recently had them tested again. Still very high. I am gluten free mostly, but not totally. I will occasionally eat something with gluten, but try to keep to a minimum. It's really hard when the immediate consequences are nil.  with high antibodies, the gene, but a negative biopsy (after 3 months strict gluten-free), do i really have celiacs? please say no. lol. i think i know the answer.  Asa

      I have had a long year of testing unfortunately still not diagnosed , although one thing they definitely agree I'm gluten intolerant, the thing for me I have severe back troubles they wouldnt perform the tests and I couldn't have a full MRI because I'm allergic to the solution , we tryed believe me  I tryed lol , another was to have another blood test after consuming gluten but it makes me so bad I tryed it for only a week, and because I have a trapped sciatic nerve when I get bad bowels it sets that off terribly so I just take it on myself now , I eat a gluten free diet , I'm the best I've ever been , and if I slip I know it so for me i have my own diagnosis  and I act accordingly, sometimes it's not so straight forward for some of us , for the first time in years I can plan to go out , and I have been absorbing my food better , running to the toilet has become occasionally now instead of all the time , i hope you find a solution 🤗
