We have to visit there for a family obligation and we'll be in a house so we'll be able to make most of our own food. But we will need a night out away from family and kids so if anyone knows of a place near the beach that is NOT a chain and has gluten free menu options please let me know. Thanks in advance to anyone who can help! We don't mind going someplace high end as Thoroughbred's was our fave place there pre dx.

Visit Myrtle Beach every year, and i'am confronted with the same problem celiac disease. I have found that Chucks Steak House (North Myrtle beach area) will work steak and bake potato and a clean salad bar. I did have to make them aware of my problem celiac disease.

I was wondering if you found any other places to eat out in Myrtle Beach or if the steak house suggested was good? We will be going for a long weekend at the end of August. The condo has a kitchen so we can fix our own breakfast and lunches but we like going out for dinner. Thanks for the help.

My family and I will be visiting the Myrtle Veach area in Aug. I am a newly diagnosed celiac and have a terrible time trying to read labels and speaking up at restuarants. :blink: Have searched on the web for different dining options and am currently e-mailing restuarants to get info. :rolleyes: Any help would be appreciated....don't want just salads and fruit while on vaca. :D

I just got back from Sunset Beach, NC (and we ate out in N. Myrtle Beach). We ate out at The Crab House. I contacted the manager via email before going and they were very helpful. I was able to eat pretty much any fresh fish, grilled or broiled and salad. The manager even offered to prepare a fruit cup for dessert, but I was full. I also brought along my Triumph Dining Cards and they helped a TON.......I highly recommend them.

Also, Piggly Wiggly carries Van's gluten-free waffles, if that helps anyone. :)

Did you find out any information via email about the restuarants? Please post it if you do. I think we will try the crab house that was suggested and maybe that steak house but probably just eat at the condo. But I would like to have choices if we do go out.

Sorry - our trip was cancelled and now we're going to Cashiers NC in September. I'm now going to search for somewhere to eat there. We will eat at the cabin mostly I think so I'll just need a place for dinner and another for lunch. But the leader of the Charlotte support group said there is no support group in Myrtle Beach as far as she knows. But I think any place that serves fish (not a fried fish joint) will grill or saute some fish and veggies for you.

How is the food search in MB going? I was looking to see what kind of health food stores they have there and it seems to be only one.... i was shocked.... its a small area but LOTS of people per year visit. I love MB and lived in north myrtle for a while many, many years ago. Changed alot since then but I still love to visit there.

so far i've found enough to survive!! which is always a plus...krogers here have gluten free options...i haven't been to a piggly wiggly yet or down to the only health food store because its in north myrtle beach and i've learned that the traffic in that direction is just nasty, so i'm going to wait until the summer season is over before i shoot down that far...i've eaten out maybe three times...All non-chain seafood restaurants in which i've called ahead, and they're always good about crab legs, grilled dishes and of course salads...most non chain places are locally owned and operated and the people are more than willing to help you out!

      Gluten exposure when trying to conceive

      By trents · Posted

      My reaction to a gluten bolus exposure is similar to yours, with 2-3 hours of severe abdominal cramps and intractable emesis followed by several hours of diarrhea. I don't necessarily equate that one large exposure to gluten with significant intestinal lining damage, however. I think it's just a violent reaction to a what the body perceives to be a somewhat toxic substance that I am no longer tolerant of because I have quit exposing myself to it regularly. It's just the body purging itself of it rather than an expression of significant damage. Before diagnosis, when I was consuming gluten daily, I had little to no GI distress. I was, for the most part, a "silent celiac". The damage to my small bowel lining didn't happen all at once but was slow and insidious, accumulating over a period of years. The last time I got a big shot of gluten was about three years ago when I got my wife's wheat biscuits mixed up with my gluten-free ones. There was this acute reaction after about two hours of ingestion as I described above. I felt washed out for a few days and fully recovered within a week or so.  Now, I'm a 74-year-old male. So, I'm not worried about being pregnant. And I don't want to contradict your physicians advice. But I just don't think you have done significant damage to your small bowel lining by one episode of significant gluten ingestion. I just don't think it works that way.

      Gluten exposure when trying to conceive

      By Skydawg · Posted

      Wondering about some thoughts on how long to wait to try to get pregnant after a gluten exposure?  I have been diagnosed for 10 years and have followed the diet strictly. I have been cross contaminated before, but have never had a full on gluten exposure. I went to a restaurant recently, and the waiter messed up and gave me regular bread and told me it was gluten free. 2 hours later I was throwing up for the whole evening. I have never had that kind of reaction before as I have never had such a big exposure. My husband and I were planning to start trying to get pregnant this month. My dr did blood work to check for electrolytes and white blood cells, but did not do a full nutritional panel. Most of my GI symptoms have resolved in the past 2 weeks, but I am definitely still dealing with brain fog, fatigue and headaches. My dr has recommended I wait 3 months before I start to try to get pregnant.   I have read else where about how long it can take for the intestine to fully heal, and the impacts gluten exposure can have on pregnancy. I guess I am really wondering if anyone has had a similar experience? How long does it take to heal after 1 exposure like that, after following the diet so well for 10 years? Is 3 months an okay amount of time to wait? Is there anything I can do in the meantime to reduce my symptoms?

      Gluten Free Cannabis Edibles

      By ShadowLoom · Posted

      I’ve used tinctures and made my own edibles with gluten-free ingredients to stay safe. Dispensary staff don’t always know about gluten, so I double-check labels or just make my own.

      Damage after 13 years gluten free

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      It's great to hear that there are some good doctors out there, and this is an example of why having a formal diagnosis can definitely be helpful.

      Damage after 13 years gluten free

      By RMJ · Posted

      Update: I have a wonderful new gastroenterologist. She wants to be sure there’s nothing more serious, like refractory celiac, going on. She ordered various tests including some micronutrient tests that no one has ever ordered before.  I’m deficient in folate and zinc and starting supplements for both. I’m so glad I decided to go to a new GI!
