We visit PA to visit family a lot - here a few tips I can offer for Pittsburgh - The Fairmont Hotel downtown was fabulous in feeding us in the hotel restaurant - they have a designated gluten-free menu but will make anything for you! They made pancakes and cookies for my kids and that was a real treat. They had bread too (but I don't know if they always had it or just got it because I called ahead and told them we were coming). We ate at Capital Grill (steakhouse) for dinner downtown one night and it was great. The Mandy's pizza was awesome and worth any extra driving you have to do - it is so good and it they understand cc - (be sure to go to the right location - only one location has the gluten-free pizza unless they changed that). If you are driving out to Indiana, it will be a detour, but the Truly Wize bakery (Open Original Shared Link) in Greensburg was a wonderful treat. My visit to Pittsburgh and the surrounding small towns over the summer was one of the very few trips I have taken where I wasn't glutened once - it was so much fun.

Thank you for the recommendations. I went to Spaghetti Benders and it was great. The only let down was that their pasta was too al dante even after sending it back since it was rock hard on the inside the first time, but that might just be personal preference. But the other food was wonderful (especially the garlic bread) and the service was awesome. As I hardly ever go out to eat, it was really nice to have someone else cook for me.

      Gluten free thyroid medications

      By KimMS · Posted

      Thanks for sharing this! Have you started taking the Amneal? I'm curious how it's going for you. My pharmacy gave me the option of Accord, Macleod or Amneal. I didn't realize that Amneal was formerly Lannett, or I might have chosen that one. However, I did read some anecdotal reports that some people had side effects with Amneal, so I chose Accord. I have been taking it for 3-4 weeks and the past 10 days I have developed extreme fatigue/sluggishness, joint pain and some brain fog. I don't know if it is the new levo med, but nothing else has changed. Has anyone else taken Accord levo? Any issues? It seems to fall into the "no gluten ingredients, but we can't guarantee 100%, but it's likely safe category." I'm wondering if it is worth switching to Amneal or at least getting my thyroid levels checked. If the med is causing my symptoms, I'm guessing it's not because of gluten but maybe the potency is different from Mylan and I need different dosing. Accord was recalled for lower potency, but my pharmacist said the pills I have were not part of that lot.

      In 70-year-olds, DHEA (Dehydroepiandrosterone) levels are significantly lower than in young adults, typically around 20% of youthful levels, according to the National Institutes of Health (NIH) | (.gov). This decline is a natural part of aging, with DHEA production decreasing from its peak in the third decade of life. While some studies suggest potential benefits of DHEA replacement in older adults, particularly in women, results are not consistently positive across all studies.

      Welcome @bold-95.   That's a tough situation.   Understanding DHEA Deficiency in Menopausal Women A major cause of hypothyroid is iodine deficiency.  In the 60's bread had 90 mcg, milk 100 mcg per cup and we used iodized table salt.  A sandwich and glass of milk supplied 300 mcg,  Now in the US bread does not use iodine as dough condition, milk has a bad name and table salt is avoided.  Net reduction from 1970 to 1984 of 50% of iodine intake.   Urinary iodine levels (mg/dL) in the United States, 6-74 years of age NHANES I, 1971-74 Median 32.00 2NHANES III, 1988-91 Median 14.5 NHANES 2000 Median 16.1 There has been a trend for increased prescribing of levothyroxine (LT4) in the United States.  LT4 was the tenth and seventh most commonly prescribed drug based on the number of prescriptions in 2005 and 2006, respectively. From 2008 to 2011 the number of LT4 prescriptions rose from 99 million to 105 million, with LT4 being the second most prescribed medication.1 From 2012 to 2016 the number of annual LT4 prescriptions increased steadily from 112 million to 123 million, with LT4 being the most prescribed medication.2,3 During 2017 and 2018 LT4 was the third most prescribed medication, with 98 million Levothyroxine prescriptions trends may indicate a downtrend in prescribing. DHEA and hypothyroidism are linked, with some evidence suggesting that low DHEA levels may be associated with hypothyroidism.
