so i just went to dalucianos italian restaraunt this week, and OMG!!! it was amazing! it was the first time i had pizza made for me by someone else in 2 1/2 years! the hubby and wife are soooooooo nice and sweet, and yes, they have 4 celiac kids :blink: even all my non-celiac friends that were with me thought the food was amazing! authentic italian! yay!

and i got on their mailing list to be notified when they start shipping their food, which should happen very soon...i'll keep y'all posted!

so if anyone is anywhere near chicago...it is definitely worth the trip! we live like 2 1/2 hours away, and i will be making the trip as a treat once in awhile!!! yummmmmmmmmmmmmyyyyyyy!!!

the dress code is absolutely casual :) and yes the pizza is wonderful, and there were kids there...if you are going to take a party of more than 4 people though, i would recommend calling ahead as there are only like 12 tables in the place...lol...we had to wait awhile with our party of 9 :blink: but it was sooooooooo worth the wait!

i also had canolli for dessert...OMG was that the sweetest richest tastiest dessert i've ever had! i'd never had a canolli before, but i cant imagine that a gluten filled one could taste any better!

i cant wait to go back and try something else...soooooooo much to choose from on the gluten-free menu...such a treat!

That is a good place to eat and yes, it is totally casual. The mom and pop are delightful and are going to start a mail order business. They will be rich someday. It is interesting to read the book they bring to the table for you to sign...........there are lots of people in there. I wish I had tried the pizza, my granddaughter's favorite. I had the chicken parmesean and that is something I could have made at home, darn. The cream puffs for dessert were very good. It is kind fo expensive, but good.

Be sure to go. Barbara

This place sounds fantastic. I am going to downtown Chicago in December (brr!) and hopefully I can make it there. That is if I am not to stuffed from Nuts on Clark caramel corn.

      In general with pharmaceutical products cross-contamination is a much lower risk.

      Here is more info about how to do a gluten challenge for a celiac disease blood panel, or for an endoscopy: and this recent study recommends 4-6 slices of wheat bread per day:

      Just so you'll know, once you have been gluten-free for any length of time, it will invalidate testing for celiac disease.

      Yes. I have not been tested for celiac. It took forever to get diagnosed with Fibromyalgia. lol. I have an appointment with my regular GP later this month and will convey my findings on improved symptoms and see what his thoughts are. Thank you.

      Refractory celiac disease

      @Grahamsnaturalworld, It's never too late.   Have you been checked for Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth?  SIBO can cause ongoing symptoms.  Mast Cell Activation Syndrome (MCAS) and Histamine Intolerance (HIT) can also be the cause of ongoing symptoms.  The AIP diet can help with these by starving out SIBO bacteria and calming the immune system. Do you include dairy in your diet?  Casein in dairy can cause an autoimmune response the same as to gluten.  Have you been checked for lactose intolerance?  Some people lose the ability to produce the enzyme, lactase, needed to digest lactose, the sugar in dairy because the villi where the lactase enzyme is made are damaged.  AIP diet excludes dairy. Do you include grains in your diet?  Gluten free alternative grains and ancient grains can be inflammatory and cause symptoms.  Some people with Celiac react to corn and oats.  The AIP diet excludes all grains.  Lectins in grains can be inflammatory and cause symptoms. Do you eat nightshades (tomatoes, potatoes, peppers, and eggplant).  This family of plants produce glycoalkaloids, chemicals that promote Leaky Gut Syndrome.  The AIP diet excludes nightshades.   Are you on any medications?  Some medications can cause gastrointestinal symptoms.  Do you take any supplements?  Some herbal teas and supplements can cause digestive symptoms.  Medications for diabetes, antidepressants, and other pharmaceuticals can cause digestive symptoms as side effects. Have you been checked for nutritional deficiencies?  Malabsorption of essential nutrients can occur with continued symptoms.  Deficiencies in Niacin, Thiamine, and other B vitamins can cause digestive symptoms.  Gastrointestinal Beriberi and Pellagra are often overlooked by doctors because they are not familiar with nutritional deficiency disease symptoms.  Nutritional deficiencies can worsen over time as stores inside the body are depleted.   Have your doctors checked for all these?   I had a horrible time getting my symptoms under control.  I had to answer all these questions myself.  Yes, it's frustrating and exasperating because doctors don't have to live with these symptoms everyday.
