Hi there,

I'm traveling to Exuma which is a small island south of Nassau. Does anyone know about the style of cooking and whether they use corn and rice rather than flour for beading fries foods? Any ideas about the types of foods the restaurants will have available? Thank you in advance!

Hi Allie - did you end up going to Exuma last year? I'm looking at planning a family vacation there and was curious if you found gluten free options. Thanks so much!

For future travelers, I went to Exuma and EVERYTHING is fried.  It is really hard to eat out there without getting a salad every time.  To be honest there isn't a whole lot of fruit on the island either.  I brought my own gluten-free bread, oatmeal and pasta and I'm really glad I did.  Went to one restaurant and ordered the lobster thinking there is no way that would be bad, but it came breaded and deep fried.  The island itself is spectacular, but eating there gluten free is extremely difficult.  Especially because the one thing everyone says you have to try there is deep fried conch.  Loved the island, but pack an extra suitcase for your own food.

      Alprazolam gluten free?

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      You may want to search the same site for other makers of the drug, if there are any. Many times generic manufacturers make the same drugs using different inactive ingredients. To see the ingredients you will need to click on the correct version of the medication and maker in the results, then scroll down to "Ingredients and Appearance" and click it, and then look at "Inactive Ingredients," as any gluten ingredients would likely appear there, rather than in the Active Ingredients area. https://dailymed.nlm.nih.gov/dailymed/

      Thank you for your kindness. I have just begun CPTSD treatment & it's so hard to go through all this history realizing I could have had a healthier life had my mother had my best interest as she did her own needs and desires. I often thought she had kids to work for her. She did the bills and the laundry. She wore the pants in the family, I knew that & I know my stepfather was elated to tell me no. He had no interest in taking care of me ever. And he doesn't even understand that he caused these horrible health issues of my mothers and myself. His ignorance is bliss. He said he didn't want to hear about my health issues. Thanks again for being here and responding. It gives me a place of safety and understanding I haven't had for years. thanks, Jane

      A year and a half of test confusion...

      Thank you.  I certainly take it seriously, no matter what my diagnosis is, and I do a lot of my own research also.  I just want to make sure I'm doing everything "right" as much as I can without jeopardizing any test result accuracy since this may be my last shot at getting an official diagnosis since I plan to go fully gluten-free afterwards! Yup, I am certainly making a current effort to eat plenty of it!  Not only for test accuracy, but I figure I may as well enjoy it now just in case it's my last go at it also.

      @Scott Adams I would say it means , no it is not verified gluten free. I am extremely sensitive and I also have OCD. So that answer is entirely too vague for me. However , if it suits others then I am happy for those individuals

      Have you considered eating plenty of gluten from now until your capsule endoscopy? If you truly have celiac disease that would increase the chances of damage being seen.
