Traveling On Tour Bus?

SO I'm overly excited that I may have the chance in the near future to go on the road and play music. At the same time I'm freaking out b/c the last thing I want is to get sick. There is a fridge and freezer on the bus so I suppose I could pre-make myself some meals, but the fridge is only so big and I'm not the only person who would be using it. I'm sure there will be a lot of eating out going on, but I try to stay away from that for obvious reasons. I'm sure I could find stores along the way when I need more food. I cant rely on processed foods and need to eat a lot of veggies otherwise....C! God, this disease sucks sometimes!-lol...

Has anyone ever traveled on a bus or went on the road for a long time?? I have no idea how long i'll be gone, I probably shouldnt even worry about it right now until I find out......but all these things go through my mind since I always think way ahead...sometimes it's a good and bad thing-lol and then theres the issue of being able to work-out. I need to go running at least 5 times a week otherwise I turn miserable! and nobody else that I'll be traveling with is athletic...they are quite the oppositte-lol

We have an RV and we travel for a week or so at a time sometimes for work. The tour bus will also have a stove so you'll be able to pan fry fresh meats and what not. Luckily there are thousands of naturally gluten free foods. I'm sure you have your own lists of those. Stock up on specialty items that you'll need like flour for coating meat, crackers, Tinkyada pasta, etc. You should be able to fit them in a compartment somewhere. When we travel I rely heavily on a portable Weber gas grill. We eat a lot of baked potato, steak or chicken, and Steamfresh veggies. These things are all found easily in most any grocery store. :) Hot dogs and hamburgers also are easy if you don't need/want a bun. We never do. Hormel has a gluten free list and you can find most of those items in any store as well. Their microwave meals are easy and quick. Don't worry too much about it. I would also either bring your own personal toaster or get some ToastaBags so you don't gluten yourself if you toast a bagel or bread. :) And BTW, congratulations!!!

Providing you can stay well, it sound like a great experience!

Read Open Original Shared Link thread and PM the thread originator for more ideas. She sounds like she has been doing it for awhile.

      Im so frustrated and still getting the run around trying to reprove my celiac disease which my past primary ignored for 25 years.I understand that theres a ray of medical that doctors are limited too but not listening and telling the patient ( me) that im not as sensitive as I think and NOT celiac!Correction Mr white coat its not what I think but for cause and affect and past test that are not sticking in my medical records.I get sick violently with foods consumed, not eating the foods will show Im fabulous. After many blood draws and going through doctors I have the HLA- DQ2 positive which I read in a study that Iran conducted that the severity in celiac is in that gene.Im glutenfree and dealing with related issues which core issue of celiac isn't addressed. My skin, right eye, left leg diagestive issues affected. I have high blood pressure because im in pain.Im waisting my time on trying to reprove that Im celiac which is not a disease I want, but unfortunately have.It  has taken over my life personally and professionally. How do I stop getting medically gaslight and get the help needed to bounce back if I ever do bounce back to normal? I thought I was in good care with " celiac specialist " but in her eyes Im good.Im NOT.Sibo positive, IBS, Chronic Fatigue just to name a few and its all related to what I like to call a ghost disease ( celiac) since doctors don't seem to take it seriously.

      @Martha Mitchell, your reaction to the lens implant with gluten sounds like it could be an allergic reaction rather than a celiac reaction. It is possible for a celiac to be also allergic to gluten as it is a protein component in wheat, barley and rye.

      Scott I also have different symptoms than most people. It affects me bad. Stomach ache, headache, nauseous, heart racing, whole body shaking, can't walk then my throat starts to close. It attacks my nervous system. The only thing that saves me is a 1/2 of Xanax...it calms down my nervous system

      Scott Adams. I was dealing with a DR that didn't care about me being celiac. I repeatedly told him that I was celiac and is everything gluten-free. He put an acrylic lens from j&j. I called the company to ask about gluten and was told yes that the acrylic they use has gluten....then they back tracked immediately and stopped talking to me. The Dr didn't care that I was having issues. It took me 6 months and a lot of sickness to get it removed.... which can only happen within 6 months. The Dr that took it out said that it was fused and that's why I lost vision. If they would have removed it right away everything would be fine. He put in a silicone one that was gluten-free and I've had no issues at all in the other eye. Do not do acrylic!
