Keene, NH:

Fritz's Fries: A little college town eatery on main street, offering AMAZING french fries. They just recently got gluten free bread and will make their sandwiches/panini on it. I just had an Italian Stallion, which is italian meat and cheese and it was delicious. approx. $6.50 for a sandwich.

Across the street is a salad joint, I dont know the name. They bake gluten free foccacia and will make salads for you. Focaccia was delicious, comes in two flavors.

Portsmouth, NH

There are MANY chains here, but Popovers on the Square has gluten free sandwiches and deserts. DELICIOUS mousse, though pricy, and boutique grill sandwiches. Very yummy. Located right downtown in the tourist/shopping area.

I posted a couple weeks ago about Popovers on the Square in here as well, I highly recommend it. The gluten-free bread they use for their sandwiches is really good, I keep meaning to go to the Portsmouth Health Food Store to check it out, that is apparently where they get it. It's called Millets Special or something but I don't know the actual brand name, I think it's from a local bakery. Anyways, just thought I'd share.

Fritz's Fries is great, though the type of gluten-free bread they offer changes. They have been getting a delicious baguette from a company in Brattleboro VT called Against the Grain but availability (or deliveries?) has not been consistent. When they don't have the baguette they've been using a white rice bread (can't remember the brand but available on the shelf at grocery stores) that my 4-yo daughter loves grilled with PB&J. They are supposed to use foil on the panini presses to prevent cross -contamination, but a friend suggested you may want to remind them. (They forgot on hers.)

The place across the street is the Keene Fresh Salad Company, and they also offer a gluten-free muffin each day.

Awesome! Thanks for the heads up, I may be looking to moving to keene NH in the future, if not somewhere close to there. Just another reason for me too look forward to it ;).

There is a new restaurant in Portsmouth run by Traci Anello. The cafe is entirely gluten-free. She used to have a little bakery in Wells ME and opened the one in Portsmouth very recently. This is the website: Open Original Shared Link I haven't been there personally since I live in NYC but the bakery in Wells was a little piece of heaven, and I am sure the new cafe is great. She does mail order of her focaccia roll mix and baked goods.

Yes! This place is fantastic. I did post about this joint a few months ago, anybody searching for threads under my name should find it. Highly recommended.

Yay! and we're heading that way for the 4th. Thanks for the reminder! I stopped by Anello's in Wells last summer, but they were closed. Peered through the window and haven't stopped thinking of lemon bars since.

      Hi trents, thanks for the response.  The 2nd opinion doctor said that if my CRP is still elevated at that time, he would advise me to look at Crohns/UC or another autoimmune issue. The colonoscopy I had this year seemed to rule those 2 out for now so he still believed celiac may explain it. No previous doctors have suggested any explanation for it even after calling to tell me it was a concerning result.  I guess it feels tough knowing I have positive blood testing, permissive genetics, and visible duodenum changes... and somehow it's NCGS instead of celiac. I'm still surprised the biopsies came back negative when the doctor was so sure they would be positive.

      "He also said that my CRP should return to a normal level at this time if the culprit was inflammation in the small intestine due to celiac." But with if the elevated CRP levels are caused by some other inflammatory process going on in your body? "She also said that my positive EMA isn't valuable because it has "a high false positive rate." Totally wrong! This is a highly accurate test for celiac disease, that requires specialized expertise to perform and interpret, and it is more expensive than other blood tests. It is generally used as a last test to confirm celiac disease after a positive tTG-IgA test. The sensitivity of a test refers to its ability to correctly identify individuals with the condition. For the EMA-IgA blood test, the sensitivity is generally very high, ranging from 90% to 98%. This means that the test can accurately detect celiac disease in a significant percentage of people who have the condition. The specificity of a test refers to its ability to correctly identify individuals without the condition. For the EMA-IgA blood test, the specificity is also high, typically around 95% to 100%. This indicates that the test can effectively rule out celiac disease in individuals who do not have the condition. Taken from the following article: Looking at the whole picture, I am wondering if you are transitioning from NCGS to celiac disease. Some experts in the gluten disorder field believe NCGS can be a precursor to celiac disease.

      Hi all, just wanted to post an update.  I have been gluten free for about 1.5 months now and seeing improvement already in the bathroom.  Recently I had a visit with another GI doctor for a 2nd opinion. He said that while my blood tests and scope are not a "slam dunk" for celiac, he believes it's more likely than not that I have it. His advice was to stay with a celiac-level gluten free diet (no CC) for 6-12 months then retest to make sure TTG-IGA is still negative. He also said that my CRP should return to a normal level at this time if the culprit was inflammation in the small intestine due to celiac.  Today I had a follow up with the original GI that performed the scope. She is confident it is NCGS and says I can still have gluten sometimes. When I asked about the visible duodenum damage, she said it is just "irritation" from gluten because the biopsies were negative. She also said that my positive EMA isn't valuable because it has "a high false positive rate."  I guess I'm having trouble reconciling the totally different advice from these 2 GI's. I want to believe the new doctor more at this point because what he said just makes more sense to me, and he gave an actionable timeline for possible next steps. Feeling lost and disappointed at this point and wanted to write it down here in case anyone has input. Thank you.

      @junell, Can you get a DNA test to look for genes for Celiac Disease?   Have you had your thyroid checked? Have you been checked for nutritional deficiencies?  Being on a restricted diet for so long and especially now since you are having symptoms can cause malabsorption resulting in vitamin deficiencies.   Talk to your doctor and dietician about supplementing with essential vitamins and minerals.
