Breakfast

Since going gluten free I have diligent about going out to eat, usually only eating in places that have a designated gluten free menu. The one meal that has been difficult has been breakfast. It used to be my favorite meal of the day and I would often get up early on my days off an enjoy a large breakfast at a local breakfast shop. I hesitate to do that now.

Any suggestions on chain restaurants with gluten-free breakfast menus or advice about ordering breakfast at diners and/or other restaurants. Could I get something other than a fruit cup and coffee?

If you are a 'regular' at a cafe type breakfast restaurant - usually they will try to accommodate you. I still get eggs with cheese & veggies and potatoes, no toast. When I come in now, they put a separate, clean pan on the grill just for me. Very little risk of cross contamination that way. I'd say just ask if you can have your breakfast made in a new, cleaned pan - they will more than likely be happy to oblige. Going that extra mile is what keeps customers and gives them that grass roots good reputation.

Maybe you could start a new tradition. After going gluten-free, I used to(have diabetes now so stopped) get up early on Sat. and make fresh gluten-free waffles for kiddo and I and serve with whipped cream and fresh fruit or fruit sauce. YUM! :) We really enjoyed and looked forward to it. Maybe having breakfast at home and then hitting the farmers' market could be a new tradition. We've done that too. Enjoy the music, bring home some especially good, fresh, in season, veg. or fruit or artisinal cheese.

      This Common Blood Pressure Drug Can Mimic Celiac Disease Symptoms

      Dang. I had a moment of hope that I could change my BP med and get off the gluten-free diet. Nope. More seriously, I hadn't seen this articles about this phenomenon before. This is one of the possible answers for people who post here about having celiac symptoms (including biopsy) but normal IgA levels, especially if they are saying that diet isn't helping...

      Zaalouk moroccan eggplant salad

      oops. I didn't see that before posting or I would have at least referenced it. The two recipes are pretty similar, but I think the newer one is a little simpler/faster. Next time though I will search more before posting.

      The following two lists are very helpful for anyone who is gluten sensitive and needs to avoid gluten when shopping.

      Terrible Neurological Symptoms

      This may not be the cause, it's pure speculation on my part, but for 10-15 years I had a tingling/burning/electric-like shock sensation that emanated from my right-neck upward across the right-side of my head. I was worried about having a stroke or something so got all sorts of tests done, including an MRI, which found not much--only a minor degenerative...

      This may not be the cause, it's pure speculation on my part, but for 10-15 years I had a tingling/burning/electric-like shock sensation that emanated from my right-neck upward across the right-side of my head. I was worried about having a stroke or something so got all sorts of tests done, including an MRI, which found not much--only a minor degenerative disk in my neck--which I just accepted as the cause. Fast forward to when I was ~45 and I was hit with shingles in the EXACT place that this sensation would travel--I ended up with a very painful case of shingles that felt like the right-side of my head had been set on fire, and had the blistering and pain that ran along the exact path of nerves that I had felt this sensation travel along for the prior 10-15 years. For me, that time period was a shingles pre-cursor, and all those feelings were likely inflammation in my nerves. Needless to say I've not had this since getting my shingles vaccines at 50.  Your situation could very well be something else, but I just wanted to mention this possibility because your symptoms sound similar to what I experienced. I'm not sure if you're in the age range to get a shingles vaccine, but it may be something to consider.

      Welcome to the celiac.com community, @Richard Rusnak! The short answer is "No". Barley is a gluten-containing grain. The three gluten-containing grains are wheat, barley and rye.  Barley and rye contain less gluten than wheat but still should be avoided. Understand that smaller amounts of gluten may not produce a noticeable reaction in so far as symptoms go, but they still may be causing some inflammation in the gut. Products derived from gluten-containing grains should also be avoided, for instance malt and malt flavoring.
