O'charley's.

A few weeks ago my Mother and I went to an O'Charley's in Gatlinburg, TN. We told the hostess of our problems when she seated us and she preceded to get us a manager. He had a book full of lists and nutritional information on every item. It was great and the food was the best. My Mom ate so well and so did I.

Shortly after that, my Mother and Father ate at an O'Charley's in Woodstock, GA. They had some different items and my Mother had to order a different meal that she got in Gatlinburg. She said they were helpful and her meal was alright.

Interesting. I live in Woodstock. I never gave O'Charlies a second thought, since i grouped them with Applebees, Ruby Teusday's, etc. I always end up at the steakhouses.

I posted a similar message in another thread but last week in Bristol, VA the O'Charley's provided me with a printout that listed all menu items in rows with columns for major allergens including gluten. I had no problems with my meal.

As with any restaurant chain, they will have employees who do better or worse than other employees.

Piccolo, can you be more specific about the problem. Did you get glutened from something they said was gluten free or was the staff just not interested in helping?

Oh wow, there is actually an O'Charley's not far from me! We'll have to check it out!

      Hello, and welcome to the forum. Getting use to gluten-free eating is a struggle, but it is worth it. Your daughter should begin to feel much better and the fatigue will fade but it can take some time. I am sure you will get lots of suggestions from forum members - we have a few from the UK. I am a bit pushed for time just now but will come back later. Russ

      Thank you so much @suek54 How are you doing today? I spoke too soon yesterday. Something (I can only think gluten-free sweets or a can of soft drink) set me off yesterday. Had a bath, applied some cream, still itching so applied some steroid and was awake until 3am. It's so frustrating. Always 2 steps forward, 1 step back. I am at work now and going to play it very much on the very safe side with food for the next few days.  My derm appointment is less than a week away. I will update on here because I do feel it important to help others.

      I’m sorry you’re going through all of this. It sounds very stressful, especially when you feel that your symptoms are not being taken seriously. Until you are seen next week, it may help to keep the focus very practical: take clear photos of the skin sores, write down a timeline of symptoms, list all medicines, eye drops, supplements, implants/leak history, and any test results, and bring that to the dermatologist. If there is drainage, spreading redness, fever, worsening pain, eye involvement, or signs of infection, that needs prompt medical care. I would be cautious about assuming parasites or staph without testing, and also cautious with new supplements or putting vitamin C directly on sores, since irritated skin can get worse. A dermatologist can culture lesions, biopsy if needed, and refer to infectious disease if the findings point that way. On the celiac side, I understand your concern for your son, but being HLA-DQ2 positive does not by itself mean he has celiac disease; it means he has a genetic risk. If he is eating gluten now, this is actually the best time for proper celiac blood testing before he tries a gluten-free diet. His symptoms, weight, congestion, and family history are worth discussing with a gastroenterologist, but he should not be told he has celiac based only on HLA status. For your own care, try to keep pushing for objective testing and clear documentation in your records, because that is often what gets doctors to take the next step.
