As far as I know, Taco Bell is a no-go. Even their chips are made from wheat tortillas. Shame, since I really like Mexican food.

Yep ~ no Taco Bell ~ that use to be one of my favorites. :( I order a hamburger patty at McDonald's or Burger King... just ask for no bun. I don't eat the cheese or mayo ~ but they are very nice about fixing it for me. You can eat the fries too! Burger King fries their onion rings in a seperate deep fryer.

Taco Bell has maybe two items you can eat. They'll give you a list but most of it is condiments. Even the beef has wheat in the spices. Find somewhere else to eat.

Hey Kimberly,

but how do they do that with the prize, if you only buy a hamburger patty without bun? It's already pretty expensive, when you buy a complete hamburger. And one single hamburger hardly ever made me full. So if i buy 2 or three i'm not gonna pay the same prize than for 2 or three complete hamburgers. Then i better eat somewhere else or take my own food with me.

Lots of greetings, Stef

I don't find it a problem... I get it with lettuce, tomatoe, pickles, onions... makes a good meal. :rolleyes: That and a Diet Coke makes for a happy tummy until dinner! I get the 1/4 lb. patty ~ not the tiny one. THAT would not make a meal! Ha! Hey, when you are out and about, you have to do what you have to do!

Hey, i didn't even know they had a 1/4 lb patty. I actually thought about the tiny one. Hm, you learn new things every day.

Greetings, Stef

Don't know if you have Taco John's where you are, but I get bean hard shell (corn) tacos there. Their meat has wheat in the seasoning, their chips and potato ole's are fried in the same fryer as coated chicken strips, so I avoid everything else.

      TTG IgA 0.30 U/ml: further tests?

      By lookingforanswersone · Posted

      Thanks everyone. I've decided to do a gluten challenge (4 slices of bread a day for 3 months) and then do a full gluten panel of all the tests that can be done, just to rule it in or out for sure. I think otherwise psychologically it will keep bothering me

      Thanks Scott. Those articles are really interesting. I’m cutting out gluten for 6 weeks but honestly I’m not sure I even want to reintroduce it! I ate at a restaurant for the first time on Wednesday and then Thursday was really uncomfortable and had a few trips to the loo.. wonder if there was some cross contamination 🤷‍♀️ if that’s how my body reacts after not eating it for 3 weeks I’m not sure it’s worth reintroducing it and re testing for celiac! It might have been a coincidence I realise that I’m not going to feel better all of a sudden and my gut is probably still trying to heal. Thanks for your supportive message!

      Reference range 0.00 to 10.00 means that within that range is normal, so not celiac. There are other antibodies that can be present in celiac disease and they don’t all have to be positive to have celiac.  I’m sure someone else will post a link to an article describing them! Plus, if you are IgA deficient the celiac IgA tests won’t be accurate.

      Great to have another UK person on the forum!   Re: blood tests, it sounds as if you are being well monitored but if you have any further concerns about blood tests or anything else, do not hesitate to start a new thread. Cristiana

      The patient is positive for DQA1*05, one half of the DQ2 heterodimer

      Julia530 - I have the same gene structure and most of the symptoms you have experienced plus more.....I agree with you whole heartedly!! There are approximately 10 (NOT TWO) genes that can predispose a person to having Celiac Disease. I read in Pub Med that HLA DQA1:05  can result in Celiac Disease in approximately 1 in 875 people. While it is obviously more rare it is NOT BENIGN and should not go unnoticed. Go get the book "NO GRAIN, NO PAIN" and I highly suggest you read it cover to cover. It is written by a Chiropractor who quit his medical education when the VA wouldn't allow him to treat the Veterans with debilitating arthritis with a grain free diet. I have been grain free for over 10 years now.....the facts are we are being lied to! There is a form or gluten in every protein in every grain on the planet of which there are 1000 or more. Just because all they are testing for is the Gliadin in wheat is no excuse to report only partial facts.
