4th gluten free day and I feel pretty good today! Good enough for a car drive...

 

I am out the door to pick up a friend I have been estranged from, to have a picnic and go see several waterfalls near Portland. She the type that will kind of barrel over you trying to help without really listening to what the problem is. Doesn't listen, but her heart is in the right place. I've read so many posts on here about dealing with people that don't understand... this probably isn't someone I should be dealing with for my first attempt out side family, but the sun is out, and I would like to go with a friend. I've known her for years.

 

Hopefully it won't even come up. I packed carrot sticks, peapods, celery, hummus, 2 apples and water bottles. When I call her, I will tell her to pack a sandwhich is she wants to, but that I have lots of food. And I'm only going for a few hours.

 

This should be interesting.

Turned out just fine. A little chilly. Had my safe picnic and felt pretty normal!!

Good deal! :)  Just keep up your vigilance in avoiding in gluten.  It's easy (for some of us   :unsure:  ) to slip up and eat things with gluten at the beginning.  Hard to believe you had a good time without bringing some peanuts along though. :D

      Hello, I was very stick,  with flu like symptoms, but my virus panel came back negative and we couldn’t figure out what’s going on. The doctor then added a celiac panel.  Has anyone ever had such a dramatic change?  What are the odds this is true celiac I am going to have an endoscopy, but it’s expensive and I just feel like why can’t the labs be enough?

      Eating out in general is full of risks, but this article may help:

      This kind of question is always difficult to give a definitive answer to because of so many variables. One such variable is the sensitivity of the individual celiac to small amounts of gluten cross contamination. An amount that causes a reaction in one celiac many not in another, or at least not be discernable which, of course, does not exactly equate to being "safe".

      I don't live in the US, but based on this thread, I wouldn't risk it:   https://www.reddit.com/r/glutenfree/comments/1n2ehw8/cracker_barrel/   This app is helpful: https://www.findmeglutenfree.com/

      I see that Cracker Barrel restaurants have a gluten free menu (not all locations, but one confirmed that they do). I was wondering if it is safe for my 5 year old son with celiac disease?
