How cool! It is so nice having these message boards to communicate with you all! I really felt alone in this until I found this site.

A new pizza kitchen? What is it called? I buy Amy's pizza if I have the crave and it is good, just have to take a lactaid pill =)

I'm in Riverside, and would also love to know the name of the pizza place with gluten free pizza allegedly in Temecula. So far the closest pizza place I know about is Picazzos in Arizona. Also, where do you buy your Amy's pizza? My local health food store doesn't carry it.

Oops, sorry, I added a blank reply! I am in Riverside, pretty close to Chino Hills and Temecula, and was just wondering if you have any more info about the pizza restaurant which Temecula is getting which serves gluten free pizza??? About 6 weeks ago I planned a special trip to Picazzo's in Flagstaff, Arizona just to be able to order gluten-free pizza at a restaurant. Would love to have a closer place.

Thanks!

You're really close to me! I'm in West Hollywood a lot! I go at least a couple times a week! Do you have any favorite gluten free friendly restaurants? I know of some over there and some in the SF Valley.

I get most of my gluten-free items from Henrys, they carry a lot of Amy's food and it is all gluten-free. I love Henrys! I am not sure about the pizza place, I have no idea but when I find out I will post it =) Oh you guys are going to love this, I hope =)

The pizza place is Pizza Fusion and opens in mid 2008. This site looks pretty cool, check it out =)

I'm in Long Beach.

I've been watching for the Pizza Fusion to open in either Santa Monica or Dan Diego.

I prefer Glutino's pizza to Amy's. Glutino's doesn't have a grainy after taste like Amy's.

I am hoping pizzafusion will open something closer to Chino Hills....if not maybe driving to Temecula once in a while will be worth it...then freezing them. Also, I have been asking around for any good gluten-free bakeries in this general area....there is one in Culver City but that is over an hour away....any suggestions?

Lucky you, Culver City would be about a three hour drive away for me. I looked at the bakery's website, but the shipping makes it cost prohibitive for me. Temecula would actually be a shorter drive for me but I'm still not sure with the price of gas that I'm willing to drive two hours for a pizza.

I get most of what I buy from the small local organic store. They carry some Food for Life things, but frankly FFL's whole approach puts me off, plus I haven't cared for what I've tried.

Hi,

I'm in San Diego, and just starting in this new world. I haven't even begun to look for restaurants that will work for me. If anyone knows of anything in SD area I would appreciate it. I feel really lost at this point.

Hi babinsky,

I'm in Ontario/Upland. My friend just opened up a bakery in Montclair called Sweet Addictions about a year ago. She started baking gluten-free just for me but started making gluten-free goodies when interest grew. She offers gluten-free goods every Thursday (call for availability - she always sells out) or you can make special orders throughout the week (including B'day/wedding cakes). She's in a shared facility, however, she uses dedicated pans/utensils and the gluten-free ingredients are quarantined. She's very careful - we've never had a reaction. She makes THE best red velvet cream cheese frosted cupcakes ever! If you have any questions, talk to Annette (she's the owner) www.sweetaddictions.biz Maybe I'll see you at her shop one of these days ;) Enjoy!

Hi MsMini14,

I'm right by you, I'm in Ontario.

Thanks for sharing the gluten-free registry site - I haven't seen that one before. Very good source of info! :)

      Am I celiac or not?

      By trents · Posted

      I think giving attention to the main sources of exposure such as direct consumption of gluten and gross cross contamination with reasonable attention to handwashing and thorough counter top cleaning and dishwashing should cover cross contamination issues. The biggest precautions would be eating in restaurants and at other's homes. Don't get paranoia over it and don't make trouble where there is none. As far a what you communicate with your physicians, just tell them what you know. Strongly positive antibody tests, negative biopsy, positive symptoms when consuming gluten with clearing of symptoms when gluten free.

      By trents · Posted

      Occasionally we do see anomalies where celiac antibody tests are positive but biopsies are negative, and even visa versa. Sometimes, damage to the small bowel lining is patchy and unless numerous samples are taken from various areas, the damage can be missed. So, there's that issue as well. I think in your situation, the tell-tale indicator is the difference in symptoms between when you were off gluten and when you were consuming it.

      Am I celiac or not?

      By somethinglikeolivia · Posted

      Okay, that makes sense - so based off of the 90% odds that it is positive, it’s worth switching to fully gluten-free? How strict do I need to be with cross-contamination, handling, etc. Is it something that can go by feel, for instance if I feel okay making my family sandwiches and handling the bread as opposed to eating it, or is it something that is causing silent damage even if I feel fine? Also, do I make it clear to my rheumatologist and other medical providers that I am celiac? Or will they veto that due to negative endoscopy? Thanks again for the help!

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      If you look at the article that I shared you will notice that "The test is estimated to have a sensitivity of approximately 90%, which means that it correctly identifies 90% of people with celiac disease. It also has a high specificity of around 95%, which means that it correctly identifies 95% of people who do not have celiac disease," so your results indicate that you very likely have celiac disease, especially if you also have symptoms while eating gluten that go away when you stop eating it (although many celiacs don't have obvious symptoms).
