Avalon Catalina Island Plants

We are in Catalina for the 4th of July and went hiking this morning. I had problems with bloating this morning on our hike and was wondering if anyone else has been on the island hiking and experienced problems? I have a picture of the wheat like plant but can't post to this page from my iPhone. If you want to see the pic, please post your email address and I can send it.

Meant to say I have a pic of the wheat like plant that is all over the island.

unlikely to be a problem, it would have to "get in you" in some way....if you didn't eat it, and it wasn't crushed in some fashion, unlikely. probably just vacation/different routine etc.

Are these them? Open Original Shared Link If so, sea oats look like wheat or oats but are not. They're a grass that helps with beach erosion and makes a good nesting ground for sea birds. I grew up in FL and miss them. Enjoy the beach! I'm jealous!

      Other symptoms that Celiac Disease can cause but resemble other diseases so the cause may be misdiagnosed. What Are the Symptoms of Celiac Disease?

      Thanks Scott. They are gluten-free but cross contaminated.

      Hi there @MCAyr I have a small umbilical hernia which came about during my second pregnancy.   I can just about see it, and feel it, when I stand or sit, but it is far less noticeable when I lie down.  I always know when I am putting on weight because I can get pain and burning near the site, funnily enough not on the hernia itself but either side!  I would imagine bloating could cause the same effect as weight gain. In my case I don't think it is my bowel protruding but a bit of fat  - sorry,  I realise this isn't painting a very pretty picture.  But in truth it is scarcely noticeable.  It has never really got bigger in size. I was rather hoping that it could be operated on but here in the UK they don't seem to operate on every hernia anymore.  My GP isn't remotely worried about it. In a way, I should be thankful - it is like an early warning system that I need to go on a diet! Cristiana

      The hernia description would likely be unrelated to celiac disease, but you'd need to get it checked out by your doctor to be sure it's a hernia.
