Hi all,

This will be my third trip to Tucson but the first time with as a celiac. :rolleyes: We love Parrilla de Suiza (might not be spelling that correct) I know they have delicious corn tortillas but I wonder if anyone else has spoken to them. Our room has a kitchen so I'll go to Trader Joe's and Sunflower for goodies but I would like to go to this place.

Also, can you tell me of any farmers market open at the end of May?

Thanks,

Monica

I think there are some gluten-free pizza places in Arizona, too, Monica.

Picazzo's Pizza has a HUGE gluten free menu and it is TOO DIE FOR! But they are only in Scottsdale, Tempe, Sedona and Flagstaff. I miss Pizazzo's. I am almost willing to buy an airline ticket just to got buy me a Pizza :lol:

Monica,

It's La Parilla Suiza...we haven't eaten there, but my husband (the celiac) generally will eat at any mexican place (and there are lots of them around here!) He just makes sure he gets corn tortillas and asks about gluten if there are any sauces used. We just ate at Habaneros today...was awesome! Fish tacos were the best ever!

Keep in mind that he is no where near as cautious as many celiacs...he does not worry about cross contamination.

Carrabbas, PF Changs, and Outback also have gluten free menus. As for grocery stores, you can also visit Sprouts or Wild Oats. Not sure on a farmers market.

If you are concerned, you could check out their website www.laparillasuiza.com and send them an email.

By the way, also be careful that the chips served with salsa are corn ..some restaurants use flour.

Good luck!

      Taking Probiotics but Still Getting Sick After Gluten – Advice?

      By trents · Posted

      NCGS does not cause damage to the small bowel villi so, if indeed you were not skimping on gluten when you had the antibody blood testing done, it is likely you have celiac disease.

      I will assume you did the gluten challenge properly and were eating a lot of gluten daily for 6-8 weeks before your test, but if not, that could be the issue. You can still have celiac disease with negative blood test results, although it's not as common:  Clinical and genetic profile of patients with seronegative coeliac disease: the natural history and response to gluten-free diet: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5606118/  Seronegative Celiac Disease - A Challenging Case: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC9441776/  Enteropathies with villous atrophy but negative coeliac serology in adults: current issues: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34764141/  Approximately 10x more people have non-celiac gluten sensitivity than have celiac disease, but there isn’t yet a test for NCGS. If your symptoms go away on a gluten-free diet it would likely signal NCGS.

      Taking Probiotics but Still Getting Sick After Gluten – Advice?

      By Xravith · Posted

      I'm very confused... My blood test came out negative, I checked all antibodies. I suppose my Total IgA levels are normal (132 mg/dl), so the test should be reliable. Still, I'm not relieved as I can't tolerate even a single biscuit. I need to talk to my doctor about whether a duodenal biopsy is necessary. But it is really possible to have intestinal damage despite having a seronegative results? I have really strong symptoms, and I don't want to keep skipping university lectures or being bedridden at home.

      CT with contrast.

      They may want to also eliminate other possible causes for your symptoms/issues and are doing additional tests.  Here is info about blood tests for celiac disease--if positive an endoscopy where biopsies of your intestinal villi are taken to confirm is the typical follow up.

      New labs are now very elevated

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      In the Europe the new protocol for making a celiac disease diagnosis in children is if their tTg-IgA (tissue transglutaminase IgA) levels are 10 times or above the positive level for celiac disease--and you are above that level. According to the latest research, if the blood test results are at certain high levels that range between 5-10 times the reference range for a positive celiac disease diagnosis, it may not be necessary to confirm the results using an endoscopy/biopsy: Blood Test Alone Can Diagnose Celiac Disease in Most Children and Adults TGA-IgA at or Above Five Times Normal Limit in Kids Indicates Celiac Disease in Nearly All Cases No More Biopsies to Diagnose Celiac Disease in Children! May I ask why you've had so many past tTg-IgA tests done, and many of them seem to have been done 3 times during short time intervals?
