Hi Everyone,

I am new on here, and we are traveling to Disney Resort in Anaheim at the beginning of July, (not same as disney world) and need to know where I can take my son to eat, or get gluten-free snacks etc. The hotel we are staying at will have a fridge and microwave etc. but it would be nice to eat out a couple of times while we are there. We are getting better at getting them to prepare foods for him, as well as most restaurants are more knowledgable. Any info would be greatly appreciated.

My family and I went to Disney in CA three years ago. We had the best time! We stayed at the Disneyland hotel and just did CA Adventure and Disney (did not go anywhere else). The character breakfast was wonderful. They made me gluten-free waffles and walked through the buffet line to tell me what I could have (keep in mind I am the only one with celiac disease). At the park there were several places that were fantastic with my diet. The mexican resturant was the best! Since we have gone you can now go to the entry desk? and obtain a gluten-free list of places to eat and snacks that you can have. Chef Chris (in charge of food service) is also a great resource and extremely helpful. I do not have his number but I think if you do some searches it will come up. You will have a great time!

We had the BEST time there just yesterday.

You will be able to eat out every meal if you want to. The first thing you need to do is to go to Town Hall (on the left hand side- right when you enter the park) and get a list of "celiac offerings". It tells you all the options at each restaurant for both Disneyland and California Adventure. When you choose your restaurant- ask for the lead and they will walk you through it. We ate at Pizza Port in Tomorrowland and had a great meal!! The lead was knowledgalbe about cross contamination and preparation practices. She made us amazing gluten free pizza and pasta!!!! I was so excited. The list says that you can also get a gluten-free hotdog and hamburger on a gluten-free bun at a couple of places. It is so great! Yeah for disney! The number the list says to call is 714-781-4650. I would be sure to call ahead and coordinate with both the park and the hotel.

Have a great time!!!!

Meredith

      Welcome to the forum, @Beagirl! What you are feeling is what we have all felt to one degree or another and we typically feel it more intensely when we already have a laundry list of health issues to work around. It's often the result of a sense of loss . . . of having to say goodbye to some good foods that we enjoy that may have been part of a shrinking...

      Recently diagnosed with a problem with no cure is annoying and upsetting. Why does this happen? I have enough health problems to deal with and now this. I can live with reading labels and giving up things at I'm 68 years old. I can cook with gluten free everything and not give up good healthy food, look for gluten free restaurants, do all I'm told to do to...

      Frozen gluten -free meals

      Amy's has been my go-to for gluten-free meals for years. Her cooks need to have feedback--for example, the two enchiladas with authentic Mexican sauce, very tasty. The 1 enchilada w span rice &beans is a disappointment ...the enchilada is terrible with its collection of corn &green peppers instead of cheese and sauce. Not tasty at all.

      What would a diagnosis tell me?

      You also mentioned eating 10g of gluten for 2 weeks are longer do you think less then 6 weeks is ok? I heard 2 weeks gives false positives what about 4 weeks 10g whole wheat a day? I read 4 slices whole wheat equals to 10g gluten. Would eating 4 slices whole wheat bread a day along with elimination of other gluten suffice? Also do you recommend taking a...

      Hello again, @JessikaSwallow78! I think you already posted in another section of the forum. My goodness! You are dealing with quite a few health challenges!

      Welcome to the forum, @Beagirl! What you are feeling is what we have all felt to one degree or another and we typically feel it more intensely when we already have a laundry list of health issues to work around. It's often the result of a sense of loss . . . of having to say goodbye to some good foods that we enjoy that may have been part of a shrinking list of things that are left that we still found pleasure in. And also for many it represents a social loss . . . not being able to accept dinner invitations from family and friends because you are unsure if they know how to cook gluten free . . . not being able to go out to just any restaurant with family and friends because their menu doesn't have gluten free offerings and if it it does, are they careful with regard to cross contamination issues?

      Recently diagnosed with a problem with no cure is annoying and upsetting. Why does this happen? I have enough health problems to deal with and now this. I can live with reading labels and giving up things at I'm 68 years old. I can cook with gluten free everything and not give up good healthy food, look for gluten free restaurants, do all I'm told to do to manage the problem. So I don't know why I'm complaining since it is manageable.

I read 4 slices whole wheat equals to 10g gluten. Would eating 4 slices whole wheat bread a day along with elimination of other gluten suffice? Also do you recommend taking a multivitamin to play it safe or when I take the test ask for full vtamin blood test to see all vitamin levels and whatever im low in take that vitamin? Thanks

      Hello again, @JessikaSwallow78! I think you already posted in another section of the forum. My goodness! You are dealing with quite a few health challenges! Anemia and vitamin/mineral deficiencies are very common with celiac disease. Celiac disease damages the lining of the small bowel and reduces the ability to absorb vitamins and minerals from the food we eat. The lining of the small bowel is the section of the intestines where these things are absorbed and this issue may also be causing your discomfort after eating.  Constipation and diarrhea are classic GI symptoms with celiac disease. Celiac disease is an autoimmune disorder and you already have two autoimmune disorders, namely, Raynauds and Fibromyalgia. I mention this because autoimmune diseases tend to cluster. When you have one, you often acquire others with time. I think your next step is to get tested for celiac disease. The initial step of testing involves a blood draw from which they check for antibodies which are fairly specific to celiac disease. Ask your doctor to order these two lab tests, TTG-IGA and Total IGA (aka, Immunoglobulin IGA), when he/she does the blood draw. Make sure you don't start cutting back on wheat products in the mean time or you will invalidate the testing. Keep us posted.
