Saw this in a newsletter today...Allergy Eats is a new website (allergyeats.com) where you can enter your food "allergies" and zipcode and it shows you restaurants in your area with ratings and comments regarding their ability to handle your food sensitivity. Pretty cool! Especially for traveling! Our rural area had a little, but not much. But at least it's a start...

Great idea - too bad it's only for US :(

I tried it. Tons of places came up. I was amazed at how many pizza places! Only to find out that they had nothing gluten free. Most of the restaurants listed were just listings. Nothing about allergies at all.

Check out www.glutenfreeregistry.com they even have a red "I want Pizza" button on the left side that only shows gluten-free pizza locations around you

very cool

I am not really looking for gluten-free pizza. I was just surprised after putting in our allergens that a list of pizza places came up. Only to find out that none of them were gluten-free. I do know where I can get gluten-free pizza around here.

      Her result for the TTG Ab (IgA) was 19. Lab range 0.0 - 0.7. U/ml.

      TTG would refer to a blood antibody test. Not valid if you are already eating gluten free or mostly so. DQH would refer to a genetic test to see if you possess either or both of the two genes that have been connected most strongly to developing active celiac disease. The genetic test is more of a rule out measure than a diagnostic test as about 40% of the general population have one or both of those genes but only about 1% of the general population develops active celiac disease. If you don't have the genes but gluten causes you issues then the conclusion is NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity) as opposed to celiac disease. So, the genetic testing helps with a differential diagnosis. I don't know about the 2P. 2 Pairs of genes?

      Tell him to get me a case...just kidding! I wonder why they are not labelled gluten-free here in the USA? They don't have gluten ingredients.

      Glad this helped. There are lots of alternative breads out there, so someone has likely made some sort of paleo bread with no grain. And if you bake, experiment with some of the alternative flours to see what you can come up with. If you commit to the gluten-free diet 100%, you may want to do a bit of research on some of the tricker aspects of getting gluten out of your diet, such as cross contamination in the home kitchen (pots and pans, cutting boards, toaster, airborne flour). Don't feel you have to do everything at once, or let this overwhelm you. I've always said that going gluten free is a process, not a moment. The reason I mention this is that, if you think you are gluten-free, but still having symptoms, you may realize that even minute amounts of gluten cause a reaction for a while. Let me know if you have any questions.  Pam

      The doctor was correct--if you are gluten-free the blood panel for celiac disease will not work, you would need to go on gluten challenge in order to be tested. Here is more info about how to do a gluten challenge for a celiac disease blood panel, or for an endoscopy: and this recent study recommends 4-6 slices of wheat bread per day:   This article might be helpful. It breaks down each type of test, and what a positive results means in terms of the probability that you might have celiac disease. One test that always needs to be done is the IgA Levels/Deficiency Test (often called "Total IGA") because some people are naturally IGA deficient, and if this is the case, then certain blood tests for celiac disease might be false-negative, and other types of tests need to be done to make an accurate diagnosis. The article includes the "Mayo Clinic Protocol," which is the best overall protocol for results to be ~98% accurate.
