Hi everyone. I was just diagnosed on 5/31 and have been planning a trip to San Diego. Is there anyone out there who knows of any gluten-free restaurants in that area? Thanks in advance! ;)

I am also planning a trip to San Diego this month. I believe that there is a PF Changs in town, and also an Outback Steakhouse. I have heard that both of these have gluter-free menus available. I'm hoping to find some places that have good, fresh seafood, that will be gluten free.

I hope you have a great time on your trip!

I have had luck at Cilantros Live (in Hillcrest, Chula Vista and Carlsbad), Le Bambou (in Del Mar), Apertivo (in North Park)....hmmm if you tell me which area you'll be in I might be able to narrow it down more. There's plenty of Mexican food, seafood and good health food/grocery stores (Whole Foods, Henry's, Trader Joes, OB People's Co-op, Jimbos). There's also a thread (maybe a couple) that list many more restaruants.

www.glutenfreeinsd.com might help as well. :)

Yes, that is right about the PF Chang's and Outback...And as luck would have it, I got in the mail today my copy of The Essential Gluten-Free Restaurant Guide and there are several others listed for San Diego:Andre's Restaurant, Buca Di Beppo, Claim Jumper, Corvette Diner, Flemings Steakhouse, Mimi's Cafe, Napa Valley Grille, Roy's, Ruth's Chris Steakhouse and Uno Chicago Grill. Many of them say that they don't have a gluten-free menu but say to either make reservations noting gluten-free and to remind the server upon arrival. If you are interested in knowing specific addresses, now that I have this book, I can let you know. I hope you have a great trip too!!!

I am not too familiar with the San Diego area but I can tell you that we are at the Hilton on Mission Bay. Does that help at all? Thanks for the tips about the Mexican food and the health food stores in the area. I will keep that in mind. Also, thanks for the link to gluten-free in SD and for your suggestions of restaurants where you have had some luck. Since I am recently diagnosed (just last week), this really helps me!

I am also on my way to San Diego in about a week. We are staying in Del Mar. So any other suggestions for the Del Mar area would be great. We will be spending quite a bit of time at the fair and I am at a loss as to how to be at the fair and what to eat. I understand that Jimbo's will can make gluten free sandwiches. So I thought of going there to get some food to take with me to the fair. But I would love suggestions for where to eat in the evenings. My favorite place is the Japanese Cafe. I am hoping they can make me some gluten free sushi. I have soy sauce I am taking with me in packets.

      Celiac and dermatitis herpetiformis has taken Me from Me

      By Wheatwacked · Posted

      Have faith, you will survive. I get mine from Pipingrock.com.  500 capsules of 10,000 IU for $22.  That is almost two years worth for me.  250 caps 5000 IU for $6.69 if you only take 5,000 a day.  It's like half the price of Walmart.

      Outgrow celiac?

      By Wheatwacked · Posted

      Testing can't alone be trusted.  Else why would it take so many years of testing and retesting and misdiagnosis to finally be told, yes you have Celiac Disease. As to what to eat, I like pre 1950 style food.  Before the advent of TV dinners.  Fresh food is better for you, and cooking from scratch is cheaper.  Watch Rachel Ray's 30 Minute Meals for how to cook.  Keep in mind that she is not gluten free, but her techniques are awesome.  Just use something else instead of wheat, barley, rye. Dr Fuhrman is a ex cardiologist.  His book Eat to Live and Dr Davis' book Wheatbelly were instrumental in my survival.

      If you have DH you will likely also want to avoid iodine, which is common in seafoods and dairy products, as it can exacerbate symptoms in some people. This article may also be helpful as it offers various ways to relieve the itch--thanks for the tip about Dupixent, and I've added it to the article:

      I just want to clarify that what I posted is a category of research summaries we've done over the years, and nearly each one shows that there is definitely a connection to celiac disease and migraine headaches. The latest study said: "the study did indicate some potential causal associations between celiac disease and migraine with or without aura, as well as between migraine without aura and ulcerative colitis...this study did not find evidence of a shared genetic basis..." Anyway, there is definitely a connection, and you can go through more of the articles here if you're interested: https://www.celiac.com/celiac-disease/celiac-disease-amp-related-diseases-and-disorders/migraine-headaches-and-celiac-disease/

      Celiac and dermatitis herpetiformis has taken Me from Me

      By SusanJ · Posted

      Two months ago, I started taking Dupixent for dermatitis herpetiformis and it has completely cleared it up. I can't believe it! I have had a terrible painful, intensely itchy rash for over a year despite going fully gluten-free. See if your doctor will prescribe Dupixent. It can be expensive but I am getting it free. When the dermatitis herpetiformis was bad I could not do anything. I just lay in bed covered in ice packs to ease the pain/itching and using way too Clobetasol. Dapsone is also very good for dermatitis herpetiformis (and it is generic). It helped me and the results were immediate but it gave me severe anemia so the Dupixent is better for me. Not sure if it works for everyone. I cannot help with the cause of your stress but from experience I am sure the severe stress is making the celiac and dermatitis herpetiformis worse. Very difficult for you with having children to care for and you being so sick. Would this man be willing to see a family therapist with you? He may be angry at you or imagine that your illness is a psychosomatic excuse not to take care of him. A therapist might help even if he won't go with you. Also do you have any family that you could move in with (with the kids) for a short time to get away? A break may be good for you both.
