Happy Easter everyone!

Ok so today makes 17 days of me being glutin as well as dairy free. I slept in this morning and so didn't eat breakfast. I then had errands to run.

For dinner I met my mom and sister at a mexican restaurant when I had a chicken fajita salad. I was just chicken, tomatoes, lettuce and carrots. I also had some corn chips and salsa. Now I'm having severe stomach pains and some gas. Does this sound like I could have eaten something bad? What can I do to make this go away?

Thanks so much for your input.

Just a guess but it could be something in the salsa????

Also it could be that the restaurant fried the corn chips in the same fryer that they fried something with gluten. That happened to me once at a Mexican restaurant and I was sure I was going to die. Next time you'd better ask where they make the chips.

Yes, I found out the hard way that they fry their corn chips in the same fryer as battered items. Also those who serve fried corn, fried anything...same fryer. That could be it!!!! :(

Plus there's always the risk of CC in a restaurant.

      My journey is it gluten or fiber?

      By xxnonamexx · Posted

      So I purchased the Life Extension Benfotiamine with Thiamine along with the Thiamax. I will take along with my Super B Complexes. I stopped taking the multi vitamins. Should I take all 3 vitamins/supplements together with my morning oatmeal breakfast? Do you think I will experience any bad symptoms when taking them.

      Traveling gluten-free in Ireland

      By LovintheGFlife · Posted

      Of all the countries I have visited in Europe, Asia, and the Americas, I have found eating out in Ireland to be the safest for celiacs. Most restaurants have all allergens (up to 14 different ones) identified on their menus, including wheat and gluten. I have found staff at restaurants to be very knowledgeable regarding gluten and cross-contamination compared to most other countries. Restaurant staff (including management) in Ireland even tried dissuading me from eating some items labeled 'gluten-free' on the menu, fearing that there could be risk of minuscule cross-contamination. Many of the hotels have fresh baked gluten-free breads, pastries, and cakes at their breakfast buffet, something unheard of in most U.S hotels. These are clearly labeled and well separated from gluten-containing items. There are also quite a few gluten-free desserts to satisfy one's sweet tooth.  With everything said and done, the meats and dairy products are simply delicious and worth trying. Overall, I would give dining out in Ireland five stars for celiac safety and quality.

      Burning Sensation in the small intestine

      No, I meant two years ago when you had your most recent upper GI scope.
