Hi...I live in Arizona (originally from California) and I wanted to know if there are any fellow AZ members that can recommend some good Gluten free restaurants (or specificic item from a local restaurant)...

Thanks,

Tina :)

I do not live in Arizona but I have some family there and have visited a few times since diagnosis. Phoenix should have all the major chains (Outback, P.F.Changs, PeiWei, etc.) THere is a pizza place called Picazzo's that is wonderful. And if In N Out is near you (mostly in CA and NV but I think they have branched to AZ...now waiting for them to get to TX) thats a good fast food place to eat

You are so lucky.... I am from California too, and Arizona has Picazzos. It is sooo good. My parents live in Mesa so I head out that way every so often. They have one in Tempe, Flagstaff, and somewhere else I can't remember, but google it.

Also, there is Joe's BBQ in Gilbert which I used to always go to when I was visiting out there prior to going gluten-free. So I recently emailed them, their BBQ sauce is gluten-free (it's Heinz based) so some of their meets are safe. I just sent them an email last week and got a response if you are interested I will post it or forward it to you.

I am jealous.

I live in Lake Havasu, which DOES have an In N Out, and yes, I love their protein burgers...we have a Carls Jr. too which offers a lettuce wrapped chicken club that is very tasty. We are limited to restaurants here...Red Robin, just got a Golden Corral, IHOP, Bob's Big Boy and various family owned restaurants...However there is a mall being built that should be completed by March 08...rumor has it it will have a food court (crossing fingers for something with good wheat free choices)!

We live in Yuma, and pass through Lake Havasu from time to time. We have had good luck at the Javelina Cantina, which is just over the bridge. We explained my husband's issues, and they let us know about anything on the menu that might contain gluten. They said that they have had a lot of questions about this recently, and their staff is definitely becoming more informed about the issue.

Good luck with your search!

Yuma is not really a big town. We have an Outback, which is always a great place to eat. Lots of places to have Mexican food. Since real Mexican food doesn't generally contain gluten, it's a good place to start. Always remember to discuss your issues with the staff, wherever you're eating!

Will you be passing through Yuma or staying here?

We will be passing through, I am not sure how long we will be staying, My boyfriends mother lives there, so we are going to go visit her on our journey to utah. i would guess probably a week or two that we will be there. same with peoria, i think maybe 2 weeks to a month that we will be there, depends on how long sean can handle his family!

      Not Sure What to Think

      By trents · Posted

      That's a good idea. It can at least establish the potential for developing celiac disease and can help people decided between a celiac diagnosis and NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity). And it doesn't require a gluten challenge and can be had without a doctor's prescription.

      Anyone had endoscopy with a cold/cough???

      By awright24 · Posted

      I have my endoscopy on Thursday, has anyone had the procedure done with a cough? I don't have a continuous cough, but every now and then throughout the day I have sort of coughing episodes. They are a lot better than they were but I called endoscopy and they said to speak to my gp and my gp got back to me and said I need to ask endoscopy if its ok if I have it done still.  Help!

      Thank you so much, everyone. For the moment my doctor just has me taking iron but hopefully we can reconnect soon. I'm going to look into genetic testing, too. Great advice all around and I appreciate it--and you can bet I'm going off the PPIs!

      Sore muscles

      By Eldene · Posted

      I walk fast for fitness, 4 to 6 km per day. I am also 74 years old. Apart from the Celiac challenge, my lifestyle is healthy. I had a sciatiac nerve pinching under my one foot, with inflamation in my whole shin. It was almost cured, when the other shin started paining and burning. I do stretches, use a natural cooling gel and rest my feet. Can Celiac cause muscle pains/inflamation, or is it just over-excercising?

      Trader Joe's grocery prodcuts

      By LovintheGFlife · Posted

      I recently started shopping at a nearby Trader Joe's store. I was surprised at the number and variety of (healthy) gluten-free options sold there. I must admit their low prices are also quite tempting. However, I am curious as to the labeling on all their packages. While none of their products are certified as gluten-free, many are identified as 'GLUTEN FREE' on the packaging. Are these items safe for celiacs? Has anyone tried Trader Joe's products and have there been any adverse reactions?
