I have been working with gig some and signed up to be a reference person for the Celiac Disease Foundation. I've discovered 3 good restaurants I can suggest in Redding, Mary's Pizza shack, Outback and Red Robin. I've been fine from each place. Please stay in touch. :) How was your trip?

Hi right back at you! The last few times I visited Redding, I ate dinner at Outback, but I didn't know they also have a Mary's Pizza Shack (we have several nearby) and a Red Robin. Do you have a PF Chang's yet?

My trip was absolutely the greatest! Would you believe that on my first evening in Sydney, my daughter took me to a Brazilian BBQ place where EVERYTHING was gluten free (including the cheese bread and the pasta) except for three items on their menu? When they told me that their regular bread and pasta are always gluten free, I just couldn't believe it! Australia truly is Paradise when it comes to gluten-free dining. I literally ate my way through Sydney, Bondi, and Cairns: sandwiches, pizzas, hamburgers, High Tea, etc. I didn't get glutened a single time, and servers were astonished that we aren't accommodated in the same way here. Even at the Food Court at the mall, several restaurants had "gluten-free options" displayed on their counters. Such a wonderful place....oh, and the sights were pretty great, too!

I'm glad to hear that you've become involved with several celiac organizations. Usually, GIG has an annual conference, but this year's conference, which was to be held in Denver, was canceled due to the high costs of that particular city and because there aren't enough GIG volunteers there. I was soooo disappointed when I heard that it had been canceled--my brother lives near Denver, and my mom (who also has celiac) and I were planning to spend some time visiting his family while attending the conference. I understand that, instead of a huge conference, GIG is now planning something on a smaller scale in Seattle. I really like Seattle, which is very celiac friendly, so I might end up going (depends on the speakers). Have you heard of any interesting conferences in California?

Thanks for staying in touch...and perhaps we can have coffee or lunch sometime when I'm in Redding (I might drive out there in July to visit my father's grave).

Take care!

      Gluten free stuff

      By Tammy Pedler · Posted

      As soon as I see gluten free I read the labels. I always find stuff that I cannot have on the products them selfs. Like spices, when the labels says  everything listed and then after like say garlic salt then the next thing is spices. When it says that that can contain wheat and other things I can’t have..

      Do some people with Celiacs develop hypoglycemia?

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      While hypoglycemia isn't a direct, classic symptom of celiac disease, it's something that some individuals with well-managed celiac disease report, and there may be a few plausible explanations for why the two could be connected. The most common theory involves continued damage to the gut lining or nutrient deficiencies (like chromium or magnesium) that can impair the body's ability to regulate blood sugar effectively, even after gluten is removed. Another possibility is delayed stomach emptying (gastroparesis) or issues with the hormones that manage blood sugar release, like glucagon. Since your doctors are puzzled, it may be worth discussing these specific mechanisms with a gastroenterologist or endocrinologist. You are certainly not alone in experiencing this puzzling complication, and it highlights how celiac disease can have long-term metabolic effects beyond the digestive tract.

      Ibuprofen

      Paracetamol, aka, acetaminophen (Tylenol) just does not do anything for me as far as pain relief. It does help with fevers, though.

      Ibuprofen

      By cristiana · Posted

      I seem to recall that my digestive issues actually started when I was taking NSAIDs c. February 2013 for some unrelated condition.  My stomach got so sore during that time I went to see my GP and she thought it might be an ulcer or gastritis so prescribed me Omeprazole.  That appeared to trigger diarrhea which, once I came off the Omeprazole, did not stop.  I went back to the doctors after a few weeks, and that finally led to my coeliac diagnosis, after months of unexplained neurological symptoms, low ferritin and anxiety,which did not seem to have a cause but of course we later realised was all down to coeliac disease. I occasionally take a very small aspirin for a sick migraine which sometimes only responds to aspirin, but it usually leaves me with sore stomach a few days later. I've been told co-codamol is another medication I could take with a sensitive stomach. I was once prescribed it, to use for just a few days. It is not an NSAID, but it contains codeine, which I understand can be addictive so should be used with care.  It can also cause constipation.

      I also take Paracetamol. I haven't taken an NSAID in years since being diagnosed with UC. The can cause UC flares.
