gluten-free Eating In Cape May Or West Cape May Nj

I am hoping we have nice warm weather while we are there. The temps keep getting warm than chilly. I guess in PA we should expect that. We are going to hit Cape May when we get there in the late morning-and stay until 2:30. Check-in at our hotel is 3. My best friend is a great photographer and she is going to take a nice picture of John and I on the beach with the lighthouse in the background. My mom wants a nice picture of all her daughters/signifigant others which is recent.

We want to shop in Cape May. I am hoping to get another purse. I bought a real cute one last year but I tore it when I needed something in a hurry one day. We are leaving Harrisburg at 7am that morning.

How was traffic heading down there? I would think it would not be as hectic as during the summer season.

We are leaving on Saturday morning. We stay in Wildwood at a hotel we have always stayed at for years now. The weather still looks good for the weekend. I am hoping it stays that way. Nothing worse than a soggy beach. It usually takes us about 1 and 1/2 hrs to get to the Norristown exit of the turnpike, then we take the Walt Witman across into Jersey. So it will take us over 3 hours but thats ok. Much worth the wait.

Hi Judy!!!

I am so sorry I forgot to respond, here's the details.

Cape May was great, it was right back to work and the hospital has been nuts so I didn't even get a chance to reply in that thread. The weather was great and I even was in the ocean. It rained while we were on the boardwalk. I was bitten by a large hermit crab while on the boardwalk and for 5 minutes the store owners could not get him unlatched, he was on my palm. I still have the marks from where he bit in, it got swollen and was very painful for a few days.

We ate at the Ugly Mug, and I enjoyed a great meal. We cooked at the condo before we went to the boardwalk, prices are outrageous there. I did get dippin dots though.

There were some moments of tension between my friend and the rest of us. In a way I was ready to come home.

I guess I am starting up an old post. I am going to my brothers tomorrow, in Gilbertsville, and we are leaving early Sat. to spend the day in Cape May. From reading all of your posts, which have been extremely helpful, we have decided to try the Belle Vida. Maybe I will have a chance to try the gluten-free bread. What a nice treat to have in a restraunt. I thought those days were over!!!!! I was hoping someone might give us an idea of where the restraunt is located. That will give us more time for shopping and hitting the water!!!

I will write back and let you know how the weekend went. Also a Pennsylvanian, from the Williamsport area, I was wondering if anyone has shopped at the Gluten Free Source located in Dillsburg. I was hoping to find out if it was worth the trip. We are going a bit out of our way while traveling to Gilbertsville and eating at the Powerhouse Eatery. I was told they will accomadate the Gluten Free diet. I believe that the owner's wife has celiac. I will update everyone on that as well. I greatly appreciate this post and hope I can find directions before we take off. Nice chatting with everyone. :P

      Thanks for the reply.

      What you’re describing is actually very common, and unfortunately the timing of the biopsy likely explains the confusion. Yes, it is absolutely possible for the small intestine to heal enough in three months on a strict gluten-free diet to produce a normal or near-normal biopsy, especially when damage was mild to begin with. In contrast, celiac antibodies can stay elevated for many months or even years after gluten removal, so persistently high antibody levels alongside the celiac genes and clear nutrient deficiencies strongly point to celiac disease, even if you don’t feel symptoms. Many people with celiac are asymptomatic but still develop iron and vitamin deficiencies and silent intestinal damage. The lack of immediate symptoms makes it harder emotionally, but it doesn’t mean gluten isn’t harming you. Most specialists would consider this a case of celiac disease with a false-negative biopsy due to early healing rather than “something else,” and staying consistently gluten-free is what protects you long-term—even when your body doesn’t protest right away.

      Yes, I meant if you had celiac disease but went gluten-free before screening, your results would end up false-negative. As @trents mentioned, this can also happen when a total IGA test isn't done.

      I found at Disney springs and Disney they have specialist that when told about dietary restrictions they come and talk to you ,explain cross contamination measures tsken and work with you on choices. Its the one place I dont worry once I've explained I have celiac disease.  Thier gluten free options are awesome.

      Have you tried Pure Encapsulations supplements? This is a brand my doctor recommends for me. I have no issues with this brand.
