Hi Terrie!

I live outside of Boston and here is the listing of the finer dining places in Quincy Market. I would advise eating at a higher end place because most of the other food places will be hard pressed to serve you gluten-free food. I have eaten at McCormick and Schmick's before and they are a seafood place. They accommodate and I did not get sick. Open Original Shared Link

If you really want a fantastic gluten-free experience, I would HIGHLY recommend "Marco" in the North End. It is very easy to get to from Quincy Market. All you do is cross the Greenway into the North End and they are on Hanover St., which is easy peasy to find...one of the main drags. You pretty much dump onto Hanover after crossing the Greenway. From Quincy Market it will take 10 minutes to walk to Marco. You should call ahead for reservations as they will make fresh gluten-free bread for you and it arrives at the table warm. They have many gluten-free options, including good gluten-free pasta, and will make just about any pasta dish you want that's do-able with gluten-free pasta. They also have half plates and full size, depending on your appetite. Not sure if you are able to go outside of the Market to eat but Marco is definitely worth your while but you do need reservations. Open Original Shared Link Scroll down on the menu and you'll see the remarks about gluten-free options.

Hope this helps and I hope you have a great time! Boston is pretty gluten-free friendly so don't worry too much.

Glad to hear that. You do still have to be careful, as always, but Boston is an easier place to find gluten-free and "most" of the people working in finer dining establishments are savvy to our needs. I am very sensitive and go out to eat in the city about twice a year and haven't had a problem yet. The Registry link is a big help too.

Let me know where you end up eating and how it went! :)

      Has anyone ever had Low Ferritin with Elevated MCHC levels?

      By cristiana · Posted

      Hi Trents Good to hear from you and thanks for your prompt response.  As far as I know I don't have any other autoimmune diseases but this elevated MCHC which has been in the background for some years now makes me wonder if I have something that has hitherto gone under the radar.    I do wonder about B12 anemia.  When I was diagnosed with coeliac disease I was told by my nutritionist that had she been my GP she would have given me some B12 injections, she felt my levels were  far too low at diagnosis to just 'supplement'.  Since then, unless I supplement, my B12 seems to bump along the low normal readings. I wonder if my gastroenterologist may have ordered the newfangled B12 test for me, he may be thinking that perhaps the old blood test wasn't showing an accurate picture? Iron anemia could be a thing, except strangely I have normal hemoglobin.  Anyway, I guess if he feels my ferritin shouldn't have gone down 14 points in 18 months I might need an endoscopy and colonoscopy again. I think my coeliac disease is quite well controlled but these past few months I've probably been overdoing the gluten free oats which have made me uncomfortable and given me similar symptoms to mild glutening (which of course makes me wonder about the contamination of oats, as per that post a few weeks ago).  My TTG results will be telling. Anyway, thank you for your suggestion, I suspect anemia of some sort or another could be to blame. Cristiana

      Causes of High MCHC: A high MCHC can also be due to anemia, depending on the type of anemia you have. Hemolytic anemia may lead to an MCHC measurement above the normal range.1 Hemolytic anemia develops when red blood cells break down faster than they can be replaced.8 This type of anemia can happen for several reasons, including: Autoimmune conditions Blood transfusion complications Infections Sickle cell disease Higher-than-normal MCHC results may also be attributable to hereditary spherocytosis, a rare genetic condition in which the body makes abnormally shaped red blood cells. https://www.health.com/mchc-blood-test-7092747   Cristiana, note the first listed cause, "Autoimmune conditions". Celiac Disease is an autoimmune condition. Do you have any other autoimmune conditions, which as you know, they tend to cluster? Anemia is also stated as another possible cause, which you seem to also have a mild case of with a Ferritin level in the below normal range.

      Hi , Thank you so much. She does have a GP appointment on Tuesday to ask about bloods and I did say to her to mention B12, so I’ll remind her

      Struggling to get into a good pattern

      @RejoicephdRejoicephd, Glad you're continuing the vitamin supplementation.  High dose Thiamine has been shown to improve fibromyalgia symptoms.  Vitamin D also helps.

      High Cost of Gluten-Free Foods

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      Look into a whole foods Paleo diet like the Autoimmune Protocol Diet.   Gluten free processed foods are frequently loaded with saturated fats and fiber, and extremely low in nutritional value.   Talk to your doctor and dietician about supplementing with essential vitamins and minerals while on a gluten free diet.
