Hi everyone....I tried this question in the travel forum...no response. So...here goes!

Any restaurants, besides the chains (outback, etc) available in the Nashville area? I am staying near the airport. Any help would be appreciated. And, if there is a health food store in and around, that would save some packing and space in my bag if I could just buy some items there. Thanks. again...Gina

of course there are the obvious chains, and I also have contacted J.Alexanders and they will accomidate you as well. Most everything there is made from scratch. There is a few different wild oats locations I guess the one in Green Hills would be closer to your hotel than in cool springs. There is another Health food store called the Turnip truck it is located closer to down town you might can look it up on nashvillecitysearch.com. there is another restuarant I ate at last weekend called Cabanna it was pretty pricey about 20$ a plate but the food was great they had a special menu for me and it did not get sick! It is located near hillsboro village. I am not good with directions so my advice would be to look it up on the city search page I hope this helps some

If you can... take the General Jackson dinner cruise. Last time I was there I was trying the gluten-free diet, and we called the Chef ahead of the cruise and he actually knew what "gluten free" meant. He even came out 1/2 through the meal to make sure all was well with it. I hope the same chef is still there, was a lot of fun. :)

*disclaimer turned out I do not have celiac disease so I do not know how successful he was, just that they went out of their way to try...*

      Celiac symptoms but negative endoscopy and antibody test + family history of gastro problems

      By NoriTori · Posted

      @Scott Adams No one said anything about eating gluten consistently until testing, the appointment was scheduled and an address was given. I don't even have access to the results as it stands. I was just told "everything looks fine, but slight irritation." I don't know if they took a biopsy because I have no access to the results. I don't know how many samples they took (I recently learned they're supposed to take more than one), I don't know what things looked like internally, it was just word of mouth and I didn't know any better to pry and get copies of everything. And I know! I also have chronic Anemia, never truly resolved UNTIL I went gluten free, and low vitamin D (fairly normal in black community), and low creatine (also resolved with gluten free diet). I plan to request a new dermatologist! As well as a referral to Gastro. Food/symptom diary is a great idea though. I have no way of cooking as it stands, so even just the basics wouldn't work for me.

      @NoriTori, "gluten intolerance" is a general term that can refer to either celiac disease or NCGS. NCGS is often referred to as "gluten sensitivity" for short. Though, admittedly, there is still a great deal of inconsistency in the use of terms by the general public.

      @trents A gluten intolerance is a real possibility! I never ruled it out, but am keen on finding out the EXACT cause. I'd want testing done again to be sure it's not celiac, or SIBO (which I've considered) or other digestive disorder. Celiac seems the most pertinent considering its implications.

      Thanks so much Scott. I would be incredibly grateful to the gluten gods if eliminating oats was the magic cure. In the meantime, it's nice to have moral support!

      Eating gluten before blood test

      By trents · Posted

      Understood. And don't beat yourself up about this. Many are in the same boat as you, having experimented with the gluten-free diet before getting formerly tested. It is a logical, common sense approach when you don't have the knowledge about how testing works or you don't have the healthcare resources to afford testing. And some experience such severe reactions to gluten that it is impossible to get through the gluten challenge in order to get tested. So, they must live with the ambiguity of not knowing for sure if they suffer from celiac disease or NCGS. But at the end of the day, the antidote is the same for both. Namely, life-ling abstinence from gluten. Recently there was an article on posted on this forum about the develop of a new testing method for diagnosing celiac disease that do not require a gluten challenge. It is still in the developmental stage and probably years away from becoming main streams even if it pans out. But there is hope at least.
