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

      Welcome to the forum, @Ben98! If you have been consciously or unconsciously avoiding gluten because of the discomfort it produces then it is likely that your blood antibody testing for celiac disease has been rendered invalid. Valid testing requires regular consumption of generous amounts of gluten. The other strong possibility is that you have NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity) which shares many of the same symptoms with celiac disease but does not have the autoimmune component and thus does not damage the small bowel lining. It is 10x mor common than celiac disease. There is currently no test for NCGS. Celiac disease must first be ruled out. Some experts in the field believe it can be a precursor to the development of celiac disease. Having one or both of the primary genes for developing celiac disease does not imply that you will develop active celiac disease. It simply establishes the potential for it. About 40% of the population has the genetic potential but only about 1% develop active celiac disease.

      TTG blood test and total IGA tested on many occasions which have always remained normal, upper GI pain under my ribs since 2022. I had an endoscopy in 2023 which showed moderate gastritis. no biopsy’s were taken unfortunately. genetic test was positive for HLADQ2. extreme bloating after eating gluten, it’ll feel like I’ve got bricks in my stomach so uncomfortably full. the pain is like a dull ache under the upper left almost like a stitch feeling after a long walk. I am just wanting some advice has anyone here experienced gastritis with a gluten issue before? thank you

      "Conclusions: The urinary iodine level was significantly lower in women with postmenopausal osteoporosis, and iodine replacement may be important in preventing osteoporosis"  Body iodine status in women with postmenopausal osteoporosis Low iodine can cause thyroid problems, but Iodine deficiency will not show up in thyroid tests.  Iodine is important for healing, its job is to kill off defective and aging cells (Apoptosis). Skin, brain fog, nails, muscle tone all inproved when I started taking 600 mcg (RDA 150 - 1000 mcg) of Liquid Iodine drops. Some with dermatitis herpetiformis, Iodine exacerbates the rash.  I started at 1 drop (50 mcg) and worked up to 12 drops, but I don't have dermatitis herpetiformis.

      Thank you so much for sharing your experience and I found myself giggling with happiness as I read how your body reached such spring! And I hope that your current journey is also successful!! Definitely starting the food diary! So many amazing advices. And it’s very scary. It really hits all our soft spots as well as our confidence system. Most doctors I went thought I was underage despite being in my late 20s. Right now I look like am I twelve, but is also this body that’s taking so much, so I might as well love it too! Going to make the necessary changes and stay in this path. Thank you again! 🫶
