*To those in Victoria, B.C.:

Hi, I'm doing a writing assignment at uvic about the availability of gluten-free food. Please comment on the best discoveries and disappointments of products (cookies, crackers, bread, etc.). Clearly include the name of the store where they are found. Also, please comment on the frustration of maintaining a gluten-free diet and the satisfaction of having access to gluten-free products.

Please email me before Thurs. March 22.

Thank You.

Milestone's is part of the Cara brand of restaurants. Others are Swiss Chalet, Kelsey's, Montantas and Harvey's. Swiss Chalet is good about gluten free too...they have a pamphlet that outlines all of their foods and ingredients for "allergic" customers. Let your server know and they'll further insure that the cooks/preps are careful not to cross-contaminate. I wonder if all of the related restaurants treat celiac customers with the same care?

      Damage after 13 years gluten free

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      It's great to hear that there are some good doctors out there, and this is an example of why having a formal diagnosis can definitely be helpful.

      Damage after 13 years gluten free

      Update: I have a wonderful new gastroenterologist. She wants to be sure there’s nothing more serious, like refractory celiac, going on. She ordered various tests including some micronutrient tests that no one has ever ordered before.  I’m deficient in folate and zinc and starting supplements for both. I’m so glad I decided to go to a new GI!

      Autoimmune diseases tend to cluster. Many of them are found close together on the chromosomes.

      Just giving another update... I was referred to rheumatology, and they suspect that I may also be dealing with fibromyalgia (it has not been formally diagnosed, but just suggested at this point).  So, I am continuing with the anti-inflammatory diet and vitamins and still working to keep getting rid of all these hidden gluten sources, but I also do have another possible explanation for some of the issues that I'm dealing with.

      Newbie with Celiac / NCGS symptoms

      I would pressure the lab to do the IgA control test for free so that you won't write a poor review about their testing services. You could get this done at any time, whether or not you are gluten-free, however, the celiac disease Tissue Transglutaminase tTG-IgA test must be done after you've been eating lots of gluten for around 6 weeks. This way you could salvage the results of your tTG-IgA test, as long as you were eating lots of gluten beforehand.
