Great Experience At Bob Evan's

Hi,

I just wanted to share a really good experience we had at Bob Evan's this morning. My husband and I were taking our two young sons out to Bob Evan's because our 4 year old asked if we could go there for pancakes. My husband hasn't been out to breakfast in two years. Sometimes I'll just take them out with my Mom when he is at work (I'm a stay at home Mom). So we went to our local Bob Evans and he was only going to get coffee, and I thought I'm going to ask the waitress if they had anything gluten free for him. She didn't know of anything but said she would send her manager over, the manager comes over and she is so nice and even brings out some products that they use in their fried potatoes and checked on the bacon too. So anyways he had two over easy eggs, fried potatoes and bacon.

Before we left the manager came back over and had printed out everything on their menu that does contain gluten and told us to feel free to take a menu home so he could look it over ahead of time for next time we stop in.

It was just really nice getting to go out to breakfast again.

Sue

That is great to here. The last time that I went to Bob Evans, I got the attitude from the waitress like what are you doing here then.

      Let me hasten to add that if you will be undergoing an endoscopy/biopsy, it is critical that you do not begin efforts to reduce gluten beforehand. Doing so will render the results invalid as it will allow the small bowel lining to heal and, therefore, obscure the damage done by celiac disease which is what the biopsy is looking for.

      That’s a really tough situation. A few key points: as mentioned, a gluten challenge does require daily gluten for several weeks to make blood tests meaningful, but negative tests after limited exposure aren’t reliable. Dermatitis herpetiformis can also be tricky to diagnose unless the biopsy is taken from normal-looking skin next to a lesion. Some people with celiac or DH don’t react every time they’re exposed, so lack of symptoms doesn’t rule it out. Given your history and family cancer risk, this is something I’d strongly discuss with a celiac-experienced gastroenterologist or dermatologist before attempting a challenge on your own, so risks and benefits are clearly weighed.

      https://celiac.org/glutenexposuremarkers/    yes, two hours after accidents ingesting gluten I am vomiting and then diarrhea- then exhaustion and a headache. see the article above- There is research that shows our reactions.

      Concerning the EMA positive result, the EMA was the original blood test developed to detect celiac disease and has largely been replaced by the tTG-IGA which has a similar reliability confidence but is much less expensive to run. Yes, a positive EMA is very strong evidence of celiac disease but not foolproof. In the UK, a tTG-IGA score that is 10x normal or greater will often result in foregoing the endoscopy/biopsy. Weaker positives on the tTG-IGA still trigger the endoscopy/biopsy. That protocol is being considered in the US but is not yet in place.
