I have Celiac Disease and am interested on going away on an all-inclusive trip

to the Caribbean........such as the Mayan Riviera Mexico or any other destination

Caribbean.  Has anyone have Resort names that you have felt '100% GlutenFree Safe'.

I get paranoid when I think of what I can eat.

Stick to meal bars and whole foods. -_- THERE are some cruise lines and certain ships in that area that some have had great times on and others have damn near killed people with CC issues. Do your research but plan for best and worse case so you not left without a backup plan
If you want to not get sick and have the best times, stick to stuff hard to mess up, fresh veggies, hard boiled eggs, if you can get a skillet/griddle cook yourself up stuff, microwave cook ware like Nordicware steamers, omelette makers, grill plates so you can cook on the go with whole food ingredients. Take emergency meal bars for on the run eating and packaged nuts/seeds you know are safe for snacking.  We recently were taking about MRE, and freeze dried foods for safe alternatives while leaving the house in another thread.

Type in the words “resort” or “Caribbean” in the search box located at the top right side of the forum (little magnifying glass).  Lots of members have posted in the past.  

Have fun!

      Hi Leenora, thanks so much for sharing your journey. Yes, I am based in Ireland and I think the primary care docs should know better here. Like yourself my IGA was undetectable.  I do not have any major GI symptoms as a result my doc would only order total IGA as the next step and not IGG - so frustrating. I am ready to start a gluten free diet which will hopefully help with nutrient absorption and ultimately overall health. As someone who has already gone through a breast cancer journey I would like to be assured that my immune system is working optimally. My big concern is around Alzheimers as my Mom was diagnosed with Meniers at my age and developed memory decline in...

      I would not be surprised if that is the case. I briefly took doxycycline and it cleared up but I also stopped eating oats at the same time so hard to say what did it. And I understand doxy is nasty stuff. I had to take it with yogurt because it messed up my stomach so badly.

      I would hesitate to recommend tetracycline or any antibiotic as a long term therapy option because of the negative impact it has on the gut biome. I took it for years as a teenager for acne and I'm convinced it was a contributing factor in my having developed celiac disease.

      Welcome to the forum, @Pamp8, I stopped foods high in iodine, like dairy and eggs, kelp and iodized salt.   I take Niacinamide also called Nicotinamide or Vitamin B3.  I haven't taken the tetracycline with it.   It seems to make the blisters disappear quicker. I also use tallow balm, a cream made from beef fat, which has been used for thousands of years.  It is absorbed into the skin better than creams made from plants.  It helps prevent or lesson scarring.  See the study below.

      First off, I’m so sorry you’ve been dealing with this for so long—being sick for half your life is unimaginably tough, and it’s huge that you’ve finally gotten some answers. A celiac diagnosis can feel overwhelming (especially on top of being vegan!), but it’s also a turning point. Your body is about to start healing, and that’s hopeful! This article has some detailed information on how to be 100% gluten-free, so it may be helpful (be sure to also read the comments section.):
