My DH and I are planning to go to Branson Missouri for our anniversary, (anniversary is in July, but going in Aug). I am trying to plan ahead so I can eat without getting :o the big D. I love seafood so I called Landry's Seafood and talked to a remarkable young man named Ethan. He assured me that they will do whatever they can for me. I just have to ask for him or if he is not there give them one of my special diet cards. He said to let him know in advance and he will do anything. He said that he wanted my dining experience to be as pleasant as I could be and he appreciate me letting them try. WOW :lol:

My husband and I went on a fishing trip to Canada. The people at the lodge were great....there are a lot of them out there.... They went out of their way to accomodate my diet. UNFORTUNATELY, I wasn't thinking about the shore lunches....they didn't bread my fish...cooked it on foil so as to not contaminate the fish BUT I did have the fried potatoes which were cooked in the old cast iron skillets. for two days after lunch I would just lay in the bottom of the boat with horrible stomach pains. The third day into the trip, I realized that cast iron skillets only get wiped out thus I was being contaminated by the potatoes that were fried in a "clean, wiped out skillet." The staff at the lodge felt terrible...especially since they could have just cooked the potaotes on foil. Live and learn. Overall, I have found that people will try their best to accomodate the diet but unfortunately cross contamination does take place. We just have to be careful and advocate for our health. Good for you for checking!!! Have fun on your trip!

      probably not your situation @Mimiof2, but allow me to add one more to @trents list of celiac-mimics: "olmesartan-induced sprue-like enteropathy"

      My dad had an Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm.  Fortunately, it was discovered during an exam.  The doctor could feel my dad's heart beating in his stomach/abdomen.  The aneurysm burst when the doctor first touched it in surgery.  Since he was already hooked up to the bypass machine, my dad survived ten more years.  Close call! Triple A's can press on the nerves in the spinal cord causing leg pain.  I'm wondering if bowing the head might have increased the pressure on an aneurysm and then the nerves.   https://gulfcoastsurgeons.com/understanding-abdominal-aortic-aneurysm-symptoms-and-causes/ Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm Presenting as a Claudication https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC4040638/

      You have an odd story there. To me, the mechanical trigger suggests a mechanical problem and lower leg pain is a classic sciatica symptom. The fact that the clear mechanical linkage is no longer there does not take away from the fact that it was - maybe something shifted and the simple alignment is no longer there. There's also a good chance I am wrong and it's something else entirely. @Scott Adams's mention of shingles is interesting. It seems possible but unlikely to me, but who knows. However, I am writing here to reinforce the idea of getting the shingles vaccine. Ask anyone who has ever had shingles and they will bend your ear telling you how bad it is. I watched my wife go through it and it scared the bejeebers out of me. Even if you had the chicken pox vaccine, you really want to get the shingles vaccine.

      Oddly this effect has gone now, just happened yesterday evening, the nerve pain is now back to its usual "unpredictable" random self again - but that was the only time I ever had some mechanical trigger for it, don't know why! There's no (or wasn't) actual pain in my neck - it was inside the leg, but when I looked down, now though, the leg pain just comes and goes randomly as before again.

      I had MRI scan a few years ago showing everything normal, and now it's no longer triggering the nerve pain when I bow my head today - it only seemed to happen yesterday, and that was the only time it happened! Just seemed weird as no movement has caused my usual nerve pain before. It's normally just random.
