Finally... we tried the Bonefish Grill that just moved into our town a few months ago. Wow, it was great. My in laws didnt like it, they wanted to know why they didnt get salads for free before the dinner and such.. oh well... I had the saucy shrimp for appetizer... oh yum, I could have had that just for dinner. Then I had the Lilys Chicken... I know Bonefish, should get fish... but this chicken was outrageous!! two huge pieces of goat cheese on top, with spinach and artichokes.. and a lemon basil sauce, very light sauce, and all delicious!!

I cant wait to go again!

Congrats on a yummy and safe meal. We have a Bonefish about 30 minutes from us and I've not been there yet (never get up that way), but it's always nice to know it's there if needed!

I like it too. It's one of the few places I'll eat out at. They have quite a variety to chose from, especially when you consider all the combinations of seafood and sauces that are possible. Definitely not bland. Very flavorful.

I love Bonefish! I quite often get a steak there ... their steaks are wonderful. I also like the sea bass with the mango sauce.

What perfect timing.. We have a Bonefish five minutes from my house never tried it and am trying it tonite. I am excited my boyfriend is picky and does not eat much seafood but he will enjoy it! Thanx again!

I just went to Bonefish for the first time and i was not as impressed as i thought i would be. I like Legal Seafoods much better, but maybe thats just my personal taste. I found the waiters to be accomodating, but when i asked for the gluten-free menu, my server had no clue what that was and said "i've never heard of gluten before!" That was a little unsettling. Then, when my meal came out, it had spaghetti squash on it, so i told the waiter that the menu said "vegetable garnish is not gluten free" and when he went back and checked, he told me the squash had gluten (WHY?!) He asked if i wanted to eat everything else on the plate and just not the squash and of course i said no. On the up side, he did then take it back and make me a fresh meal, but i would expect a restaurant that advertises as being celiac friendly would inform their waiters what gluten was. The food was much heavier than i'm used to - i like my fish simply grilled without a lot of oil or salt.

What about the kids menu? has anyone taken their kids that are gluten-free with them? What did they get, I think I am going to order an adult entree for the both of them to split.

I think a child might like your choice of fish or seafood with the mango salsa. It's very fruity with very little of the other flavors associated with salsas. I often get that with mashed pot. and steamed veg. Be aware that the portions for the shrimp and scallops are pretty small. The bacon wrapped sea scallops with mango salsa(appetizer) might be a good choice too.

      Welcome to the forum, @Judy M! Yes, he definitely needs to continue eating gluten until the day of the endoscopy. Not sure why the GI doc advised otherwise but it was a bum steer.  Celiac disease has a genetic component but also an "epigenetic" component. Let me explain. There are two main genes that have been identified as providing the "potential" to develop "active" celiac disease. We know them as HLA-DQ 2.5 (aka, HLA-DQ 2) and HLA-DQ8. Without one or both of these genes it is highly unlikely that a person will develop celiac disease at some point in their life. About 40% of the general population carry one or both of these two genes but only about 1% of the population develops active celiac disease. Thus, possessing the genetic potential for celiac disease is far less than deterministic. Most who have the potential never develop the disease. In order for the potential to develop celiac disease to turn into active celiac disease, some triggering stress event or events must "turn on" the latent genes. This triggering stress event can be a viral infection, some other medical event, or even prolonged psychological/emotional trauma. This part of the equation is difficult to quantify but this is the epigenetic dimension of the disease. Epigenetics has to do with the influence that environmental factors and things not coded into the DNA itself have to do in "turning on" susceptible genes. And this is why celiac disease can develop at any stage of life. Celiac disease is an autoimmune condition (not a food allergy) that causes inflammation in the lining of the small bowel. The ingestion of gluten causes the body to attack the cells of this lining which, over time, damages and destroys them, impairing the body's ability to absorb nutrients since this is the part of the intestinal track responsible for nutrient absorption and also causing numerous other food sensitivities such as dairy/lactose intolerance. There is another gluten-related disorder known as NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity or just, "gluten sensitivity") that is not autoimmune in nature and which does not damage the small bowel lining. However, NCGS shares many of the same symptoms with celiac disease such as gas, bloating, and diarrhea. It is also much more common than celiac disease. There is no test for NCGS so, because they share common symptoms, celiac disease must first be ruled out through formal testing for celiac disease. This is where your husband is right now. It should also be said that some experts believe NCGS can transition into celiac disease. I hope this helps.

      My husband has had lactose intolerance for his entire life (he's 68 yo).  So, he's used to gastro issues. But for the past year he's been experiencing bouts of diarrhea that last for hours.  He finally went to his gastroenterologist ... several blood tests ruled out other maladies, but his celiac results are suspect.  He is scheduled for an endoscopy and colonoscopy in 2 weeks.  He was told to eat "gluten free" until the tests!!!  I, and he know nothing about this "diet" much less how to navigate his in daily life!! The more I read, the more my head is spinning.  So I guess I have 2 questions.  First, I read on this website that prior to testing, eat gluten so as not to compromise the testing!  Is that true? His primary care doctor told him to eat gluten free prior to testing!  I'm so confused.  Second, I read that celiac disease is genetic or caused by other ways such as surgery.  No family history but Gall bladder removal 7 years ago, maybe?  But how in God's name does something like this crop up and now is so awful he can't go a day without worrying.  He still works in Manhattan and considers himself lucky if he gets there without incident!  Advice from those who know would be appreciated!!!!!!!!!!!!

      You've done an excellent job of meticulously tracking the rash's unpredictable behavior, from its symmetrical spread and stubborn scabbing to the potential triggers you've identified, like the asthma medication and dietary changes. It's particularly telling that the rash seems to flare with wheat consumption, even though your initial blood test was negative—as you've noted, being off wheat before a test can sometimes lead to a false negative, and your description of the other symptoms—joint pain, brain fog, stomach issues—is very compelling. The symmetry of the rash is a crucial detail that often points toward an internal cause, such as an autoimmune response or a systemic reaction, rather than just an external irritant like a plant or mites. I hope your doctor tomorrow takes the time to listen carefully to all of this evidence you've gathered and works with you to find some real answers and effective relief. Don't be discouraged if the rash fluctuates; your detailed history is the most valuable tool you have for getting an accurate diagnosis.

      In this case the beer is excellent, but for those who are super sensitive it is likely better to go the full gluten-free beer route. Lakefront Brewery (another sponsor!) has good gluten-free beer made without any gluten ingredients.

      Welcome to the forum, @catsrlife! Celiac disease can be diagnosed without committing to a full-blown "gluten challenge" if you get a skin biopsy done during an active outbreak of dermatitis herpetiformis, assuming that is what is causing the rash. There is no other known cause for dermatitis herpetiformis so it is definitive for celiac disease. You would need to find a dermatologist who is familiar with doing the biopsy correctly, however. The samples need to be taken next to the pustules, not on them . . . a mistake many dermatologists make when biopsying for dermatitis herpetiformis.
