I personally would not recommend Toronto but then again I am biased.

I think Rusla means she is just biased against Toronto.

I really enjoyed the Science Center. Niagra Falls is also very fun and it's only about 2 hours from Toronto.

I was going to suggest the ROM (Royal Ontario Museum), the CN Tower. I am from Niagara, so if you do come here, there is tonnes to see.

Yes, food and activites :)

I started looking in our Triple AAA book too. But sometimes they put things in there that will bore one to tears.

A Blue Jays game! I went to one in middle school and it's the only thing I remember from my only trip to Toronto. :)

That's saying a lot since I blocked out the majority of middle school :P

casa loma, kensington market/china town, hockey hall of fame, metro toronto zoo, canada's wonderland (meh, close enough :P) all have kiddy things to do. Well, I guess not so much casa loma and the markets, but they're nice to look at. Also, as people have said, the science centre and ROM are good. There's also medieval times.

If you come in summer there are tons of street festivals and evets.

Yes, hubby and two kids, ages 2 and 7 are going too. I think maybe in later June or mid July to go.

This is really great to read your reccomendations! Keep them coming.

With four children, I have found the two things that the kids enjoyed most are:

Canada's Wonderland

Wild Water Kingdom

Ontario Place

Have fun!

You are right. I do not like Ontario and I never found it a fun place. A fun place is BC. That is a place I would call a holiday, all the time.

Oh wait! I forgot to add one:

Centreville: It is on Centre Island at the Toronto waterfront - you have to take a ferry to get there and the ferry ride was a real blast for the kids!

If you're looking for some great restaurants in Toronto that offer gluten-free fare, try this site:

Open Original Shared Link

It lists heaps of restaruants that provide gluten-free options. Check out "Il Fornello", an Italian restaraunt that offers gluten free pasta, pizza, bruchetta. I've wanted to check it out for ages, but the last time I was there, they were booked solid. :(

      Blood results

      By Heatherisle · Posted

      Daughter has started gluten free diet this week as per gastroenterologists suggestion. However says she feels more tired and like she’s been hit by a train. I suggested it could be the change to gluten free or just stress from the endoscopy last week catching up with her. Just wondering if feeling more tired is a normal reaction at this stage. I suppose it’s possible some gluten might have been present without realising. Have tried to reassure her it’s not going to resolve symptoms overnight

      Celiac and allergic to common subs and adds in prepared foods

      By DAR girl · Posted

      Looking for help sourcing gluten-free products that do not contain potato or corn derived ingredients. I have other autoimmune conditions (Psoriatic Arthritis and Sjogrens) so I’m looking for prepared foods as I have fatigue and cannot devote a lot of time to baking my own treats.

      Disregarded

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      I am so sorry you're going through this. It's completely understandable to feel frustrated, stressed, and disregarded after such a long and difficult health journey. It's exhausting to constantly advocate for yourself, especially when you're dealing with so many symptoms and positive diagnoses like SIBO, while still feeling unwell. The fact that you have been diligently following the diet without relief is a clear sign that something else is going on, and your doctors should be investigating other causes or complications, not dismissing your very real suffering.

      Paying for my own Celiac screening at WalkInLab so a positive result doesn’t become part of my medical history

      By Oldturdle · Posted

      It is just so sad that health care in the United States has come to this.  Health insurance should be available to everyone, not just the healthy or the rich.  My heart goes out to you.  I would not hesitate to have the test and pay for it myself.  My big concern would be how you could keep the results truly private.  I am sure that ultimately, you could not.  A.I. is getting more and more pervasive, and all data is available somewhere.  I don't know if you could give a fake name, or pay for your test with cash.  I certainly would not disclose any positive results on a private insurance application.  As I understand it, for an official diagnosis, an MD needs to review your labs and make the call.  If you end up in the ER, or some other situation, just request a gluten free diet, and say it is because you feel better when you don't eat gluten.      Hang in there, though.  Medicare is not that far away for you, and it will remove a lot of stress from your health care concerns.  You will even be able to "come out of the closet" about being Celiac!

      By plumbago · Posted

      Yes, I've posted a few times about two companies: Request a Test and Ulta Labs. Also, pretty much we can all request any test we want (with the possible exception of the N protein Covid test and I'm sure a couple of others) with Lab Corp (or Pixel by Lab Corp) and Quest. I much prefer Lab Corp for their professionalism, ease of service and having it together administratively, at least in DC. And just so you know, Request a Test uses Lab Corp and Quest anyway, while Ulta Labs uses only Quest. Ulta Labs is cheaper than Request a Test, but I am tired of dealing with Quest, so I don't use them so much.
