You will be fine with fasting ..that will not affect the test results.

Let us know how they turn out and if you have any questions just ask. :D

Thanks for the response. I was pretty sure it would be accurate, just wanted to double-check, since I could not get a definate answer from either the doctor or the lab.

Thanks again,

A 12 hour fast is not long enough to change the results of the blood test. Good luck with it!

They told me it didn't matter if I fasted when I went..that's right, right? Cus' I ate a lot of pasta beforehand!

      Eating out in general is full of risks, but this article may help:

      This kind of question is always difficult to give a definitive answer to because of so many variables. One such variable is the sensitivity of the individual celiac to small amounts of gluten cross contamination. An amount that causes a reaction in one celiac many not in another, or at least not be discernable which, of course, does not exactly equate to being "safe".

      I don't live in the US, but based on this thread, I wouldn't risk it:   https://www.reddit.com/r/glutenfree/comments/1n2ehw8/cracker_barrel/   This app is helpful: https://www.findmeglutenfree.com/

      I see that Cracker Barrel restaurants have a gluten free menu (not all locations, but one confirmed that they do). I was wondering if it is safe for my 5 year old son with celiac disease?
