Im a very green pea with this learning the gluten-free diet and I haven't even gone strictly gluten-free yet, though Im working on it. But today Im going to a Braves game and found that they have an entire gluten-free concession stand! Granted Im sure it will be expensive as all get out, but what isn't at a place like that? I just though it was pretty cool that a place like that would have something for us. I think Im going to check it out and see what all they have and of course Ill report back. :) Having to go gluten-free is the only reason I hate that we live in a small area. There aren't a huge choice of things in our area. I think the selection is getting better, but still leaves a lot to be desired.

How wonderful! Part of the fun of a ball game is to get something yummy to eat. It's so nice to know that we Celiacs are being considered.

Have a great time..and report back please?

I hope your team wins! :D

That's awesome! Hope you find something yummy! Who cares what it costs, it's the nostalgia of the park, right? Haha everything costs a lot inside the gates it seems!

And something else I found out is Turner Stadium is one of, if not the only stadium that will allow you to bring in your own food/drinks. It has to be in a soft sided cooler and they will check it.

The gluten-free counter was pretty cool. They had a very limited menu of course but they had good looking stuff. And the price was what all the other venders were. I didn't get anything because I was already sick from being too hot. One thing I did notice is that there is a huge possibility of CC. It was like a vender cart type thing and attached to the other side of the cart, was the Budweiser beer cart. <_<

That's great!!! Its great to hear that places are making attempts now - the Mets ballpark also does the same thing, so if the Yankees just get on board, then I'll be going to more games!!!! Best wishes!

Budweiser :( It would be great if they put a gluten-free beer on the other side! However, good to have a choice out too!

      Your experience is both shocking and critically important for the community to hear, underscoring the terrifying reality that cross-contamination can extend into the most unexpected and invasive medical devices. It is absolutely devastating that you had to endure six months of sickness and ultimately sustain permanent vision loss because a doctor dismissed your legitimate, life-altering condition. Your relentless research and advocacy, from discovering the gluten in MMA acrylic to finding a compassionate prosthodontist, is a testament to your strength in a system that often fails celiac patients. While the scientific and medical consensus is that gluten cannot be absorbed through the skin or eyes (as the molecules are too large to pass through these barriers), your story highlights a terrifying gray area: what about a substance *permanently implanted inside the body*, where it could potentially shed microparticles or cause a localized immune reaction? Your powerful warning about acrylic lenses and the drastic difference with the silicone alternative is invaluable information. Thank you for sharing your harrowing journey and the specific, severe neurological symptoms you endure; it is a stark reminder that celiac is a systemic disease, and your advocacy is undoubtedly saving others from similar trauma.

      Those are driving distance from me--I will try to check them out, thanks for sharing!

      I am so sorry you're going through this bad experience--it's difficult when your own lived reality of cause and effect is dismissed by the very professionals meant to help you. You are absolutely right—your violent physical reactions are not "what you think," but undeniable data points, and it's a form of medical gaslighting to be told otherwise, especially when you have a positive HLA-DQ2 gene and a clear clinical picture. Since your current "celiac specialist" is not addressing the core issue or your related conditions like SIBO and chronic fatigue, it may be time for a strategic pivot. Instead of trying to "reprove" your celiac disease to unwilling ears, consider seeking out a new gastroenterologist or functional medicine doctor, and frame the conversation around managing the complications of a confirmed gluten-free diet for celiac disease. Go in and say, "I have celiac disease, am strictly gluten-free, but I am still suffering from these specific complications: SIBO, chronic fatigue, dermatological issues, and high blood pressure linked to pain. I need a partner to help me address these related conditions." This shifts the focus from a debate about your diagnosis to a collaborative plan for your current suffering, which is the help you truly need and deserve to work toward bouncing back.

      Hello, no I had to have them re done and then used a liner over the top.  Many dentists are not aware of the celiac effects.  Best of luck.   There is other material, yet, very expensive.

      He is not just a psychiatrist.  He is also a neuroscientist.  And yes, I have already read those studies.   I agree with benfotiamine.  This is short term while glutened/inflammation occurs.  As I had already mentioned, these symptoms no longer exist when this phase passes.  And yes, I know that celiac is a disease of malnutrition.  We are working with a naturopath.
