Cambria California

I'm going with my husband to a nice little B&B in Cambria, California on the central coast for our one year wedding anniversary. I'll of course bring plenty of food, but I was hoping that we might be able to eat one meal out at a nice place. I already looked at Central Coast Celiacs for ideas to no avail--we live in San Luis Obispo, so there's no way we're making the drive back down to SLO for an anniversary dinner once we've made it up to Cambria. I do have multiple food intolerances so I generally don't eat out at all, but if anyone knows of a particularly accommodating place, I'd really appreciate it!

I'm sorry to say that I've been to the Cambria area before and I had no luck with dining options either. If you haven't already booked your trip I might suggest The Inn at School House Creek, in Mendocino, CA. Still coastal, just farther north. The owner of the inn sent me a letter regarding their new food-allergy friendly dining options. You can check out my blog for more details. I might also suggest contacting the Cambria chamber of commerce directly. They might have some suggestions, as you never know where or when you're going to run into someone with a food allergy, and for a small town, most people know all the details. Good luck, and please do share if you find a place that can accommodate in the Cambria area.

Thanks for the recommendation for the place in Mendocino--I'll have to check it out some time soon. The place I actually ended up staying, The J. Patrick House, was completely clueless about gluten free issues, and they wouldn't even heat up the food I brought in a separate container for breakfast or dinner in the microwave. In fact, I have no idea how, but they managed to get a good deal of gluten into either the orange juice or the tea because within 30 minutes I was so ill that I actually broke their toilet. This was two weeks ago, and I'm still not feeling 100%, so it was definitely gluten exposure rather than anything else. I would definitely recommend that no celiac ever go to that B&B. The room itself was fine, but the bathroom was dated and the wall were way too thin, so it certainly wasn't worth the high prices they were charging.

      Oh, okay. The lower case "b" in boots in your first post didn't lead me in the direction of a proper name. I thought maybe it was a specialty apothecary for people with pedal diseases or something.

      50 YO Male Recently Diagnosed with Celiac Disease

      In the Europe the new protocol for making a celiac disease diagnosis in children is if their tTg-IgA (tissue transglutaminase IgA) levels are 10 times or above the positive level for celiac disease. According to the latest research, if the blood test results are at certain high levels that range between 5-10 times the reference range for a positive celiac disease diagnosis, it may not be necessary to confirm the results using an endoscopy/biopsy: Blood Test Alone Can Diagnose Celiac Disease in Most Children and Adults TGA-IgA at or Above Five Times Normal Limit in Kids Indicates Celiac Disease in Nearly All Cases No More Biopsies to Diagnose Celiac Disease in Children! There are other things that may cause elevated tTg-IgA levels, but in general a reaction to gluten is the culprit:

      Hi @trents Just seen this - Boot's is a chain of pharmacies in the UK, originally founded in the 19th Century by a chap with the surname, Boot.  It's a household name here in the UK and if you say you are going to Boot's everyone knows you are off to the pharmacist! Cristiana

      I am looking to find a Celiac Dietician who is affiliated with the Celiac Disease Foundation who I can set up an appointment with.  Can you possibly give some guidance on this?  Thank you!

      Nacina, Knitty Kitty has given you good advice. But I would say/add find a Fat Soluble B-1 like Benfotiamine for best results.  The kind found in most Multivitamins have a very low absorption rate. This article shows how taking a Fat Soluble B-1 can effectively help absorption by 6x to7x times. https://www.naturalmedicinejournal.com/journal/thiamine-deficiency-and-diabetic-polyneuropathy quoting from the article.... "The group ingesting benfotiamine had maximum plasma thiamine levels that were 6.7 times higher than the group ingesting thiamine mononitrate.32" Also, frequency is much more important than amount when it comes to B-Vitamin. These are best taken with meals because they provide the fat for better absorption. You will know your B-Vitamin is working properly when your urine becomes bright yellow all the time. This may take two or three months to achieve this.......maybe even longer depending on how low he/you are. The Yellow color is from excess Riboflavin bypassing the Kidneys....... Don't stop them until when 2x a day with meals they start producing a bright yellow urine with in 2 or 3 hours after the ingesting the B-Complex...... You will be able to see the color of your urine change as the hours go by and bounce back up after you take them in the evening. When this happens quickly......you are now bypassing all the Riboflavin that is in the supplement. The body won't absorb more than it needs! This can be taken as a "proxy" for your other B-Vitamin levels (if taken a B-Complex) ...... at least at a quick and dirty level......this will only be so for the B-1 Thiamine levels if you are taking the Fat Soluble forms with the Magnesium as Knitty Kitty mentioned. Magnesium is a Co-Factor is a Co-factor for both Thiamine and Vitamin D and your sons levels won't improve unless he also takes Magnesium with his Thiamine and B-Complex. You will notice his energy levels really pick up.  His sleeping will improve and his muscle cramps will get better from the Magnesium! Here is nice blog post that can help you Thiamine and it's many benefits. I hope this is helpful but it is not medical advice God speed on your son's continued journey I used to be him. There is hope! 2 Tim 2:7 “Consider what I say; and the Lord give thee understanding in all things” this included. Posterboy by the grace of God,
