I'm leaving Thursday for a trip to Asheville to see my aunt (she's dying of cancer). I'll be staying with my cousin, who loves to go out to eat. Does anyone know of any restaurants there that might have a gluten-free menu? My cousin doesn't understand at all, but I know she would be happy to let me choose a restaurant that I could eat at. I rarely eat out, so I'm a bit concerned.

I'll be going to a health food store as soon as I can to buy stuff to bake and cook with, so I think I'm covered for all the "regular" meals. My cousin agreed to let me do the cooking while I'm there so I don't get sick.

I don't have any gluten free experiences there, since I was just dx last week, but my family vacationed in Asheville last year and it is an extremely "organic" and "natural foods" type of place. I doubt you'll have any problems finding gluten-free food there. Good luck. Hope my response isn't too late.

Thanks, I've been there and back. I discovered the same thing - there are lots of organic and "natural" options. I had great luck at Earth Faire and Ingles getting groceries and we just ate out once at a place called the Flat Rock Grill. The server and chef were both knowledgable and I had a simple, but good meal.

      It's normal for the pee to turn yellow when taking large doses of B vitamins, particularly riboflavin (B2). That doesn't mean they are building up in the kidneys. It means the excess is being excreted. The B vitamins are water soluble.

      Because since the vitamins are not absorbed due to the inflammation shown by high levels of tTg IGA levels,it will just cause buildup or the kidney will get tired .I already take vitamins and I could see them in my pee the next 4 minutes I don't feel like vitamins are well absorbed I took vitamin b 12 , magnesium and other things and my test results are normal but still not high considering I have been taking them now for almost 3 years .i think there is no point in taking them now since there is a high inflammation I should wait more until maybe I could start to absorb something I already took IV infusion for iron because it by pass the gut due to the poor absorbtion already .

      Welcome to the forum, @Kimmy88! Most toothpastes are actually gluten-free. Most meds are gluten free. There are lists available for most prescription meds to determine if they contain gluten as an intentional ingredient. Google. Remember, "gluten free" does not mean "contains no gluten" it just means it contains less than a certain parts per million of gluten, in the USA that's < than 20 ppm for food items. For meds it may not be the same standard. And for generic meds, you would need to contact manufacturers. Pharmacies can give you contact info. Trace amounts from cross contamination may not be an issue unless you are in the subset of super sensitive celiacs.
