Looking For French Restaurant Cards

Hello! I'm new to this site (and message boards in general) but not new to eating gluten-free. I need some help finding a good gluten-free French restaurant dining card- I'm going to Paris this week for my 30th birthday and don't want to be sick the whole time! I've been looking around for hours online and haven't been able to find anything free and/or with the right info. Does anyone have any recommendations? Thanks!

First, I suggest heading over to the delphi forums - there are a couple french speakers over there.

Second, my french is RUSTY, but here's my crack at a translation of what that card says (before someone who actually can speak the language without "er"ing and "um"ing constantly can translate better):

"I suffer from a illness called celiac disease and I must follow a diet absolutely free of gluten. I am susceptible to becoming graveling ill if I eat items which contain wheat or the grains wheat, rye, barly, or oats.

This food, does it contain wheat or the grains of wheat, barley, rye, or oats? If you have the least doubt if these are in the foods, please tell me.

I can eat food which consists of rice, corn, potatoes, vegetables and fruits of all kinds, eggs, cheese, milk, meat and fish, provided it is not coated with wheat flour, fried, have breadcrumbs, or a sauce which contains the items that I can't have.

I thank you for your help."

Tiffany,

Thanks for the translation! What are the Delphi Forums? (I'm new to messaging in general...)

the delphi forums are at www.delphiforums.com/celiac

and a correction to the typo: it's not "susceptible to becoming graveling ill", but rather "gravely ill". :-D I guess I miss "Dead Like Me". :-)

      Fighting for a name

      By Jmartes71 · Posted

      Im so frustrated and still getting the run around trying to reprove my celiac disease which my past primary ignored for 25 years.I understand that theres a ray of medical that doctors are limited too but not listening and telling the patient ( me) that im not as sensitive as I think and NOT celiac!Correction Mr white coat its not what I think but for cause and affect and past test that are not sticking in my medical records.I get sick violently with foods consumed, not eating the foods will show Im fabulous. After many blood draws and going through doctors I have the HLA- DQ2 positive which I read in a study that Iran conducted that the severity in celiac is in that gene.Im glutenfree and dealing with related issues which core issue of celiac isn't addressed. My skin, right eye, left leg diagestive issues affected. I have high blood pressure because im in pain.Im waisting my time on trying to reprove that Im celiac which is not a disease I want, but unfortunately have.It  has taken over my life personally and professionally. How do I stop getting medically gaslight and get the help needed to bounce back if I ever do bounce back to normal? I thought I was in good care with " celiac specialist " but in her eyes Im good.Im NOT.Sibo positive, IBS, Chronic Fatigue just to name a few and its all related to what I like to call a ghost disease ( celiac) since doctors don't seem to take it seriously.

      @Martha Mitchell, your reaction to the lens implant with gluten sounds like it could be an allergic reaction rather than a celiac reaction. It is possible for a celiac to be also allergic to gluten as it is a protein component in wheat, barley and rye.

      Scott I also have different symptoms than most people. It affects me bad. Stomach ache, headache, nauseous, heart racing, whole body shaking, can't walk then my throat starts to close. It attacks my nervous system. The only thing that saves me is a 1/2 of Xanax...it calms down my nervous system

      Scott Adams. I was dealing with a DR that didn't care about me being celiac. I repeatedly told him that I was celiac and is everything gluten-free. He put an acrylic lens from j&j. I called the company to ask about gluten and was told yes that the acrylic they use has gluten....then they back tracked immediately and stopped talking to me. The Dr didn't care that I was having issues. It took me 6 months and a lot of sickness to get it removed.... which can only happen within 6 months. The Dr that took it out said that it was fused and that's why I lost vision. If they would have removed it right away everything would be fine. He put in a silicone one that was gluten-free and I've had no issues at all in the other eye. Do not do acrylic!
