Flying Star Cafe

I just went to a flying star (ABQ, NM location) and I should have taken the hint when I saw a disclaimer sign hanging on their wall. Something to the effect of "If you have a specific allergy, please be aware that specific ingredients in our products is not available."

I spoke to the manager, made sure that he knew to have the staff clean the grill, made sure that there was no dressing on the salad, and had their house salad with chicken. When I got it, I thought there was something on the chicken, but I figured it might be safe so I ate it anyway.

Stupid.

About twenty minutes later I felt really irritable and about 45 minutes later, I felt dizzy/queasy. That night I had the classic (for me) red bumps on my right hand and fingers, and itching, itching, ITCHING. This morning I woke up with the big D.

Sounds like a glutening, no?

On their website, they have NO NUTRITIONAL information available for anything they have. I searched Flying Star's website and Satellite Coffee's site (both the same I guess), for any info on that chicken, and my inquiry was directed by a link to some email address, info@flyingstar.com I think. They provided no phone number, and certainly no details on any of their products or food items.

Anyone have experience with a Flying Star? Isn't it illegal to not have that information available to customers?

      I have many of those same CMP irregularities from time to time, with the exception that my potassium is always normal. What I can tell you is that it is normal for everything not to be normal when you get a CMP done. I used to get a CBC and CMP done annually and there were always some things out of spec. Docs don't get excited about it for the most part. It depends on the particular parameter (some are more important than others) and it depends on how far out of range it is. Docs also look for trends over time as opposed to isolated snapshots of this or that being out of spec at any given time. Our body chemistry is a dynamic entity.

      Not sure what you mean by "soy being like gluten". Soy does not cause a celiac reaction. However, soy is one of the foods that many celiacs don't tolerate well for other reasons. Eggs, corn and dairy are also on that list of foods that many of those with celiac disease seem to be sensitive to. But that doesn't mean that all celiacs are sensitive to any one of them or all of them. It just means it's common. You may not have a problem with soy at all. Celiac disease is not a food allergy. It is an autoimmune response to the ingestion of gluten that creates inflammation in the small bowel lining that, over time, damages that lining.

      Hey all  Has anyone on here experienced any of the following on their basic metabolic panel results ? This is what mine is currently flagging : - low sodium  - nearly too low potassium - nearly too low chloride - high CO2  - low anion gap  This is now after being nearly gluten-free for over a year (although I admit I make mistakes sometimes and pay dearly for it). My TtG went down to undetectable. I was so sensitive to so many foods I am now avoiding meat dairy and don’t eat a lot of cooked food in general (raw veggies, white rice, avocados and boiled eggs are my usual go-to meal that doesn’t make me sick). But my abdomen still hurts, i have a range of other symptoms too (headaches that last for days before letting up, fatigue, joint pain, bladder pain). Anyway im hoping my urologist (that’s now the latest specialist I’ve seen on account of the bladder pain and cloudy urine after eating certain foods) will help me with this since he ordered this metabolic panel. But I’m bouncing around a lot between specialists and still not sure what’s wrong. Also went back to the GI doctor and she thought maybe the celiac is just not healed or I have something else going on in the colon and I should have that looked at too. I’m still anemic too BTW. And I’m taking sooo may vitamins daily.
