Doctor Notes

I was wondering if any one had their doctors write notes explaining the need for providing your own food when in various theme parks, restaurants, etc...? I am going to an amusement park next week & they said you need a note to bring outside food. What exactly do your notes say? Thanks!

The note I have says

To whom it may concern,

this is to confirm that ds cannot consume gluten or dairy products.

I will say that I have never had to use the note.

The doc just wrote it on her prescription pad.

My note says "patient has celiac disease and must carry specific foods with her". Of course, I always get the "what does SPECIFIC FOODS mean"? Well, anything without WBRO, it doesn't matter what... Most of the time I don't have to show my note. You start talking about food allergies and the door checker's eyes start glassing over and they just let you through. Heehee.

      Thank you for looking at these for me! The reference range for IgA was: Normal range: 87 - 352 mg/dL

      With regard to the Iga 106, is there a reference range given for that one?

      Celiac panel was  IgA 106 tTG IgA AB <2 Gliadin Deamidated IgA Ab 4 Gliadin Deamidated IgG Ab 2 Endomysial IgA Antibody Negative  Tissue Transglutaminase IgG Ab Test not performed

      That's how I took it but I was confused because in your previous post you said of your biopsy, "and mine very much showed damage".  In the celiac antibody panel that was ordered, was there a test for total IGA included, aka, "Immunoglobulin A (IgA)"? This one checks for IGA deficiency. IGA deficiency can result in false negatives for the IGA celiac antibody tests such as the TTG-IGA and the DGP-IGA.

      The biopsy results were what said indicative of "weak or partially treated celiac disease".
