Hi, I'll be vacationing in Montauk on Long Island in a couple of weeks...my first trip since I've been diagnosed so I'm a little nervous. Does anyone know of any gluten-free friendly restaurants in the area.

Thanks for your help. :D

I haven't been since being gluten-free, but I just wanted to say that I loveeeeeeee montauk. I used to go there every summer until I was 14. The beaches are gorgeous and the people are so nice. Where are you staying?

Actually, I suppose I can suggest a few restaurants with naturally gluten-free options. The Amagansett Farmer's Market has absolutely delicious fresh produce. Gosling's Dock (I think that's the name) has delicious lobster. Let's see...Turtle Crossing in Amagansett has tex-mex type food that would probably be easy to adapt to gluten-free. Their grilled corn is delish! Other favorite restaurants (although I don't know if they would be gluten-free) are Lunch (subtitled "the lobster roll") and cyril's clam bar.

My grandparents used to rent a house in Amagansett (10 mins outside of montauk) for the whole family for the summer. We used to do a lot of our own grocery shopping and eat in a lot too. Lunch almost every day was a picnic on the beach! Cooking for yourself is definitely an option, depending on where you're staying.

I go to Montauk every year for 4th of July. Gosman's is easy because you can always just get lobster. Eating in town there is a restaurant called MTK, that is always very helpful. I was talking to the owner last year and her son has major food allergies, so she understands the concept of cross contamination.

I generally bring some gluten-free muffins for breakfast and a loaf of gluten-free bread to make myself sandwiches for lunch. You can go to IGA and get pre-packaged coldcuts there.

The fudge at Fudge N' Stuff is AMAZING, and I simply tell them to clean the knife when they cut mine. In addition to that, I notice she always cuts it from a section that has not yet been touched.

If you go into East Hampton, I usually go to Citarella for lunch there. They have a delicious cold chicken and tomato salad with onions that you can get by the pound.

There is also a place in Bridgehampton, The Hampton Chutney Co. that the dosas are naturally gluten free, so you can get just about anything there.

Hope I didn't post this to late.

      Disregarded

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      I am so sorry you're going through this. It's completely understandable to feel frustrated, stressed, and disregarded after such a long and difficult health journey. It's exhausting to constantly advocate for yourself, especially when you're dealing with so many symptoms and positive diagnoses like SIBO, while still feeling unwell. The fact that you have been diligently following the diet without relief is a clear sign that something else is going on, and your doctors should be investigating other causes or complications, not dismissing your very real suffering.

      Paying for my own Celiac screening at WalkInLab so a positive result doesn’t become part of my medical history

      By Oldturdle · Posted

      It is just so sad that health care in the United States has come to this.  Health insurance should be available to everyone, not just the healthy or the rich.  My heart goes out to you.  I would not hesitate to have the test and pay for it myself.  My big concern would be how you could keep the results truly private.  I am sure that ultimately, you could not.  A.I. is getting more and more pervasive, and all data is available somewhere.  I don't know if you could give a fake name, or pay for your test with cash.  I certainly would not disclose any positive results on a private insurance application.  As I understand it, for an official diagnosis, an MD needs to review your labs and make the call.  If you end up in the ER, or some other situation, just request a gluten free diet, and say it is because you feel better when you don't eat gluten.      Hang in there, though.  Medicare is not that far away for you, and it will remove a lot of stress from your health care concerns.  You will even be able to "come out of the closet" about being Celiac!

      Yes, I've posted a few times about two companies: Request a Test and Ulta Labs. Also, pretty much we can all request any test we want (with the possible exception of the N protein Covid test and I'm sure a couple of others) with Lab Corp (or Pixel by Lab Corp) and Quest. I much prefer Lab Corp for their professionalism, ease of service and having it together administratively, at least in DC. And just so you know, Request a Test uses Lab Corp and Quest anyway, while Ulta Labs uses only Quest. Ulta Labs is cheaper than Request a Test, but I am tired of dealing with Quest, so I don't use them so much.

      Does Dailymed.nlm.nih.gov site have filters for gluten?

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      PS - I think you meant this site, but I don't believe it has been updated in years: http://glutenfreedrugs.com/ so it is best to use: You can search this site for prescriptions medications, but will need to know the manufacturer/maker if there is more than one, especially if you use a generic version of the medication: To see the ingredients you will need to click on the correct version of the medication and maker in the results, then scroll down to "Ingredients and Appearance" and click it, and then look at "Inactive Ingredients," as any gluten ingredients would likely appear there, rather than in the Active Ingredients area. https://dailymed.nlm.nih.gov/dailymed/

      A lot to think about here. Does anyone have any recommendations for third party laboratories that will do full panel celiac screens private pay in the U.S.?
