I just need to vent about this experience. I normally wouldn't complain on the board, I would complain to my family. However, my family is involved!!

My mom is getting married tomorrow! :) We had the rehersal dinner tonight, at of all places, an Italian restaurant. Now I can normally get away with something simple in these situations. Something such as a buger no bun. Well, not tonight! I was served some sort of processed something or another. It smelled like seafood and looked like a pizza burger. I asked if it was 100% pure beef or if there were fillers. I was looked at like they had just witnessed alliens landing. :o The waitress brought out the manager. He said he could go print a list of ingredients. I thought... PERFECT! I could see what was in there and approve it myself. He brought back a piece of paper that had Nutrition Facts and told me it was pure beef because it didn't list anything. <_< Now I only took 2 bites of the burger before I realized it was wrong and then didn't eat anymore. But as we all know, one crumb is all it takes!

This is the true problem..... :(

My mom is sleeping here tonight. She is not back from the dinner yet. I had to leave early as it is a 45 minute drive and my stomach was in knots. I don't want her to feel bad!!! She really tried for me. I feel like a heal because I stink and I am miserable so there is no way of hiding it. I am her matron of honor tomorrow! I somehow have to pull it together starting at 8am for hair appts through who knows when tomorrow night. We are having a bonfire here after the reception is over at 8:30pm. (she is getting remarried so it is not a traditional wedding) The good thing is that I will be outside all afternoon and evening. That way the wind can blow it away! :rolleyes:

Why does this always happen at the most inconvenient times? :angry:

I totally know what you mean! Anytime I ask questions I get all the weird looks. Like when I ask if they use a dedicated frier for their fries. I hope you feel better soon.

      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.

      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.

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