Hello fellow Celiacs,

If you live in NY and haven't tried Bistango on 3rd and 29th, you dont know what you're missing! I had the good fortune of finding this Italian restaurant that makes anything on the menu, gluten-free!! I haven't tasted such delicious Italian food like this since I had to go gluten-free 10 years ago. I finally found this place after living in NYC for 4 years (and LI/Queens my whole life). Even my husband who doesnt have celiac disease, loves the food (the regular food and the gluten-free food as well). I found out about this place through a great website called Celiac chicks (which Ive known about for years......probably saw this place listed on there but why I never went there sooner, I have no idea!) Anyway, this helpful website gives lots of gluten-free/celiac disease info. Plus, its a family owned business and the owner is such a nice guy (Anthony), which makes it so much easier and relaxing to eat there. I didnt feel like I had to obssess over whether the food was really gluten-free or that there'd be no CC, like I usually worry at every place I eat at.

So, I hope you try this place and enjoy it as much as I did. I'm a loyal fan. Oh, and by the way, the gluten-free desserts are out of this world!!!! They blew me away!!!!

Happy Eating! :D

If anyone can recommend a gluten-free/celiac disease friendly restaurant in NYC, please do share! (I also found Lili and Loo on Lex. and 62nd which has a gluten-free Chinese menu, also to die for/out of this world delish!!!

Celiac Chicks do have a very helpful website if you're NYC area!

Also check out Open Original Shared Link by a gluten-free (and allergic to nuts and fish, plus I think is non-dairy and if possible kosher) diner. She has a whole list of "safe" restaurants down the right-hand side, some with gluten-free menus and some who don't have a special menu but a very good at dealing with food restrictions.

Will definitely have to try Bistango soon...after I get to Gus's (which we loved in its former incarnation and before I was gluten-free)

      CT with contrast.

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      They may want to also eliminate other possible causes for your symptoms/issues and are doing additional tests.  Here is info about blood tests for celiac disease--if positive an endoscopy where biopsies of your intestinal villi are taken to confirm is the typical follow up.

      New labs are now very elevated

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      In the Europe the new protocol for making a celiac disease diagnosis in children is if their tTg-IgA (tissue transglutaminase IgA) levels are 10 times or above the positive level for celiac disease--and you are above that level. According to the latest research, if the blood test results are at certain high levels that range between 5-10 times the reference range for a positive celiac disease diagnosis, it may not be necessary to confirm the results using an endoscopy/biopsy: Blood Test Alone Can Diagnose Celiac Disease in Most Children and Adults TGA-IgA at or Above Five Times Normal Limit in Kids Indicates Celiac Disease in Nearly All Cases No More Biopsies to Diagnose Celiac Disease in Children! May I ask why you've had so many past tTg-IgA tests done, and many of them seem to have been done 3 times during short time intervals?

      Chances of being coeliac

      @JettaGirl, "Coeliac" is the British spelling of "celiac". Same disease.

      This may sound ridiculous but is this supposed to say Celiacs? I looked up Coeliacs because you never know, there’s a lot of diseases related to a disease that they come up with similar names for. It’s probably meant to say Celiacs but I just wanted to confirm.

      I was told it was to see how much damage has been caused. But just told CT with contrast not any other name for it.
