Los Cabos Vacation

I have to share a great vacation with everyone!!! It was in Los Cabos, Mexcio! 6 wonderful days! I was so scared to go, but as it turned out, it was fantastic. The food was awesome, and I felt so much better - almost like before I fell sick last October. I did take some of my own food just incase I would have a hard time, but everyone was so understanding that it worked out well. I ate fresh fruit, vegs, and protien everyday. No spices, or anything, and I was extra careful - a great place to go.

I am now back home since Tuesday, and since Wednesday evening I have been so sick all over again....tired- the big D, itchy - brain-fog... I am hardley able to function. What should I do??

Either you got glutened on vacation or something at home could be making you sick. It sometimes takes a day or two before I start to feel bad after a glutening. Hope you feel better soon.

Move to Mexico! :D Just kidding - could it be a delayed reaction to something? Hope you feel better.

On the way home, we stopped at Hoss's...I just found out that their tips are marinated....with a wheat.... Most of their steaks are marinated with a wheat base....only one is plain. I am feeling better today, just a bit of itching is left. Can't wait for that to end!

I am very sorry you are feeling ill. We went to Cabos last summer, prior to gluten-free and are going back in Dec. What places did you eat? Where did you stay?

We are staying at Playa Grande, though we never eat at the resort. I love the local flavor. I am so ready to go back!

I stayed at the Sheraton Hacienda Del Mar

They were so good to me...I emailed them ahead of time about my issues, - At the sheraton, when I would go to order something, they would come over and tell me yes or no. Most of the waiters new me, and watched me very closely.

Bogenda -in the old town - Sergio was the manager - He made sure everything I ordered was looked into with extra care. Filet mig.- best I ever ate!!!

I also ate at the Hilton - grilled lobster on the beach - it was great. Again, I talked to the manager and ordered with them.

I made sure I called the rest. and talked to the manager, went over the list carefully with them, and then when I got to the restuarant, I talked with the manager again - he even took the order.

Most days I ate what I took with me from home for lunches - tuna fish, wheat free crackers, canned chicken, applesauce, fruit cups...I really took a lot of things with me to make sure just incase...

While I was there, I actually forgot how sick I had been, I never felt better, even felt as good as before I fell ill!!

Now, back home, I am still having issues...but I lost my dog, and that has put some major stress on me.

      Hey there, have you been tested for allergies? You may not only have celiac disease but be allergic. I have celiac disease and am allergic to Barley, wheat and rye.

      I have osteopenia and have cracked three vertebrae.  Niacin is connected to osteoporosis! Do talk to your nutritionist and doctor about supplementing with B vitamins.  Blood tests don't reveal the amount of vitamins stored inside cells.  The blood is a transportation system and can reflect vitamins absorbed from food eaten in the previous twenty-four to forty-eight hours.  Those "normal limits" are based on minimum amounts required to prevent disease, not levels for optimal health.   Keep us posted on your progress.   B Vitamins: Functions and Uses in Medicine https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC9662251/ Association of dietary niacin intake with osteoporosis in the postmenopausal women in the US: NHANES 2007–2018 https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC11835798/ Clinical trial: B vitamins improve health in patients with coeliac disease living on a gluten-free diet https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/19154566/   Nutritional Imbalances in Adult Celiac Patients Following a Gluten-Free Diet https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC8398893/ Nutritional Consequences of Celiac Disease and Gluten-Free Diet https://www.mdpi.com/2036-7422/15/4/61 Simplifying the B Complex: How Vitamins B6 and B9 Modulate One Carbon Metabolism in Cancer and Beyond https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC9609401/

      Thank you so much for the clarification! Yes to these questions: Have you consulted dietician?  Have you been checked for nutritional deficiencies?  Osteoporosis? Thyroid? Anemia?  Do you take any supplements, or vitamins? I’m within healthy range for nutritional tests, thyroid and am not anemic. I do have osteopenia. I don’t take any medications, and the dietician was actually a nutritionist (not sure if that is the same thing) recommended by my physician at the time to better understand gluten free eating.    I almost wish the gluten exposure had triggered something, so at least I’d know what’s going on. So confusing!    Many thanks!
