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!

      Protein or fat?

      By Jsingh · Posted

      Hi,  I care for my seven year old daughter with Celiac. After watching her for months, I have figured out that she has problem with two kinds of fats- animal fat and cooking oils. It basically makes her intestine sore enough that she feels spasms when she is upset. It only happens on days when she has eaten more fat than her usual every day diet. (Her usual diet has chia seeds, flaxseeds, and avocado/ pumpkin seeds for fat and an occasional chicken breast.) I stopped using cooking oils last year, and when I reintroduced eggs and dairy, both of which I had held off for a few months thinking it was an issue of the protein like some Celiac patients habe mentioned to be the case, she has reacted in the same fashion as she does with excess fats. So now I wonder if her reaction to dairy and eggs is not really because of protein but fat.   I don't really have a question, just wondering if anyone finds this familiar and if it gets better with time.  Thank you.

      High Cost of Gluten-Free Foods

      By Chanda Richard · Posted

      Hello, My name is Chanda and you are not the only one that gose through the same things. I have found that what's easiest for me is finding a few meals each week that last. I have such severe reactions to gluten that it shuts my entire body down. I struggle everyday with i can't eat enough it feels like, when I eat more I lose more weight. Make sure that you look at medication, vitamins and shampoo and conditioner also. They have different things that are less expensive at Walmart.

      Frequent nausea after gluten-free diet

      By petitojou · Posted

      Thank you so much! I saw some tips around the forum to make a food diary and now that I know that the community also struggles with corn, egg and soy, the puzzle pieces came together! Just yesterday I tried eating eggs and yes, he’s guilty and charged. Those there are my 3 combo nausea troublemakers. I’m going to adjust my diet ☺️ Also thank you for the information about MCAS! I’m from South America and little it’s talked about it in here. It’s honestly such a game changer now for treatment and recovery. I know I’m free from SIBO and Candida since I’ve been tested for it, but I’m still going to make a endoscopy to test for H. Pylori and Eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE). Thank you again!! Have a blessed weekend 🤍

      Unusual bright yellow but odourless discharge

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      Yes, I, too, have osteoporosis from years of malabsorption, too.  Thiamine and magnesium are what keep the calcium in place in the bones.  If one is low in magnesium, boron, selenium, zinc, copper, and other trace minerals, ones bone heath can suffer.  We need more than just calcium and Vitamin D for strong bones.  Riboflavin B 2, Folate B 9 and Pyridoxine B 6 also contribute to bone formation and strength.   Have you had your thyroid checked?  The thyroid is important to bone health as well.  The thyroid uses lots of thiamine, so a poorly functioning thyroid will affect bone heath.

      That sounds so very likely in my case! I will absolutely ask my doctor on my next bone check coming up in March... Thanks a lot!
