ARCHIVED Johnny Rocket's Is Celiac Friendly
de caps replied to de caps's topic in Gluten-Free Restaurants
The fries are not safe since they use the same oil for their chicken tenders and onion rings. I only had the grilled chicken salad without the marinade (marinade had barley in it). I would go back again to the Scranton PA restaurant. Donna -

Welcome to Long Island. I shop at Trader Joe's in Merrick, there is also one in Oceanside. You can also go to Fairway in Plainview, they have a larger selection there. There is also Wholefoods in Manhasset. Cafe Baldo is a Gluten free restaurant and they make gluten free pizza. They are in Wantagh Hope this helps. Donna -
I just returned from a trip to Scranton, PA with my family. We went to Johnny Rocket's. It was my first time eating out since my diagnosis. I was pretty nervous and afraid I would ruin our trip by getting sick. I especially didn't want to be sick during the three hour car ride home. I explained to the waitress that my meal needed to be gluten free. ...

ARCHIVED Gluten Free Antibiotics ?
de caps posted a topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
I found out today that I have strep throat. My doctor did not know of any gluten free antibiotics. The pharmasist was also clueless. Since today is Saturday, the drug companies could not be reached to find out if their products are gluten free. Does anyone know of any gluten free antibiotics. I was given the generic form of Augmentin in liquid form... -

Hi, I am currently breastfeeding my third child. When I was diagnosed with celiac disease she was only three months old. I nursed both of her brothers with no problems for them or I.

ARCHIVED Raised Alkaline Phosphatase
de caps replied to PghBOB's topic in Related Issues & Disorders
]I had a very high alk phos for two years before a diagnosis of celiac disease was made. I also have a history of melanoma so my primary doctor thought I might have bone mets. The first oncologist didn't feel it was related to the melanoma and dismissed the whole thing. My primary doctor then blamed it on breast feeding. After I was done breast feeding... -
I was diagnosed withcd in August of 2005 and my GI doctor had me do a bone density test. A very simple pain less test. They just basically xray three parts of your body. Your wrist, hip, and spine. My bone sensity came back showing severe osteoporosis. I could not believe it, because I'm only 38. No one can agree on the right treatment for me. ...

ARCHIVED Swelling Of Ankles And Hands?
de caps replied to Mjohnson73's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
I had very severe swelling in my lower legs. I could put a hand print on my shin it was so bad. After being gluten free for one week it went away completely. My Primmary Care MD , didn't consider celiac disease. It was my oncologist( I have Melanoma) who diagnosed me. MY primary MD still won't admit this was from the celiac disease. I'm now looking... -

I was told yesterday by an endocrinologist that I should not continue to breast feed because the celiac disease antibodies can be passed on to the baby. My two other children were breast fed and do not have celiac disease. Has anyone ever had any experience in this area? I don't know what to do. My GI doctor never told me to stop. I would appreciate...
