99 Restaurant

I've been going to the 99 restaurant because they have a gluten free menu.I always get the gluten free hamburger roll so I know exactly what it looks like.The other day I received a different roll and questioned it.The server said he had verified it was gluten free with the chef before he brought it out.He offered to recheck because I said it looked totally different.He checked and returned to tell me "it's good to go,it's gluten free".I figured they may be using a different vendor.It also looked different from my daughter's "regular" roll so I ate it and was ill the next morning.I emailed the restaurant and received a prompt reply by phone.The manager informed me that he was sorry this happened and didn't know what roll I received!!!He said he'd speak with the staff and send me compensation...Who cares about compensation!I feel like I've "undone" all the hard work.I've given up other social functions,not eaten at cookouts,etc.This totally undoes everything!!!How could this have been avoided?!It's so frustrating!!! I feel like I need to sit at home and never go out!I feel like EVERY time you dine out it's a HUGE risk!!!!!

I went to 99 when I went across country with my boyfriend for a funeral. I had heard bad things about the gluten-free menu. I didn't even bother with it haha I just ordered a salad and loaded up on gluten enzyme pills!

I feel your pain, completely. It's frustrating when you go to the trouble to make sure everyone understands you have serious restrictions, and you get glutened anyway. I swear it's like they think we're just fussy, or on a fad diet. Eating out is terrifying. I got glutened today too, and am suffering for it. I'm supposed to go out for dinner on Sunday to a restaurant that is "known" for it's gluten-free items, but now I'm just feeling anxious about it.

I hope you feel better soon!

      I’ve used tinctures and made my own edibles with gluten-free ingredients to stay safe. Dispensary staff don’t always know about gluten, so I double-check labels or just make my own.

      It's great to hear that there are some good doctors out there, and this is an example of why having a formal diagnosis can definitely be helpful.

      Update: I have a wonderful new gastroenterologist. She wants to be sure there’s nothing more serious, like refractory celiac, going on. She ordered various tests including some micronutrient tests that no one has ever ordered before.  I’m deficient in folate and zinc and starting supplements for both. I’m so glad I decided to go to a new GI!

      Just giving another update... I was referred to rheumatology, and they suspect that I may also be dealing with fibromyalgia (it has not been formally diagnosed, but just suggested at this point).  So, I am continuing with the anti-inflammatory diet and vitamins and still working to keep getting rid of all these hidden gluten sources, but I also do have another possible explanation for some of the issues that I'm dealing with.
