Hello everyone! I am not from Washington. However, I will be traveling to Yakima, WA in January. My husband and I have to attend a business dinner. Any suggestions for a "safe" restaurant in the area, preferably close to the Capitol Theatre. Thanks!

Port Angeles, WA here! :)

I rarely eat out as there is very little choice here, but we've found a few places that know about celiac disease and work to get me food I can eat.

Alder Wood Bistro is one such place.

They even offer gluten-free crackers. :o

Hi all,

This is my first time in a chat room EVER :) I was diagnosed with celiac a year and a half ago and have just started my kids on a gluten-free diet as well. We live just outside Shelton, Wa. Shoping gluten-free here is pure torture !!!!! I just started buying off Amazon but find it hard to order something I dont know that I like and the stores here have a less than adequate selection. I am hoping to find some friendly people here that have tips especialy on packing school lunches :)

Gluten free on Capitol Hill, here.

I've been lurking in the forums for months now, but will finally say hello!

I think we should hold a Puget-wide PICNIC and have a bread-off! Or a pizza-off!.... im hungry....

:blink:

I live in Bellevue. I would love to find other people near me who can't eat gluten, but I haven't seemed to have any luck with that yet. :(

Hi i'm from UW :)

Hi! I'm new to the board, and new to the Gluten-free lifestyle. The doctor told me I might have Celiac Disease last monday, and test results came in and confirmed this as of this morning (though I'd been doing my best to eat gluten-free in the meantime).

I live in Downtown Seattle (as the name implies), and I have only just begun my search for appropriate places to eat...

I've also tried to learn as much as I can about the disease, and foods I can/can't eat in the last week and a half, but there's so much information out there!! :blink:

Anyway, I just figured I'd say hi, and you'll probably see me on these boards regularly. :)

      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.
