    Does anyone know which if any of Peet's Coffee & Tea's teas are gluten-free? I've emailed them and still no response.

    Sounds like you are a seasoned cruise veteran! This was my first cruise, but definitley not my last. We will be on the Caribbean Princess but haven't picked a week for sure yet, we're looking mid-October. We'd like to go West, but in October I think they only sail East, so we'll probably have the same ports of call. I found the diet to be a struggle...

    Hi Nita, First, did you book through a travel agent, or on your own? If you used a travel agent, that person is supposed to sent a letter to Princess stating that you have special dietary needs. That will alert them to order our special breads and other items for you. If you booked on your own, Princess should send you a booking number or some kind of...

    I just wanted to let everyone know that Princess did a WONDERFUL job in accomodating my diet. I talked to the head waiter when we arrived, and each night he went over the menu with me to let me know what was safe, and what special modifications they could do if the whole dish wasn't safe. He also met me in the buffet for breakfast to help me in the mornings...

    YankeeDB, I tried that yesterday when I picked the prescription up, and my pharmacist was less than helpful. He couldn't find the phone number and then told me to just call Glaxo myself. The person I talked to at Glaxo this morning was a pharmacist, but still couldn't give me a straight answer. I guess besides figuring out whether or not this drug is...

    I was diagnosed with social anxiety yesterday, but I've know that I've had it for a long time now. My doctor wants me to try Paxil CR, but I can't seem to get a difinitive answer as to whether or not it's safe. I've seen the regular formulation of Paxil on the gluten free drug lists, but not the CR version. I called GlaxoSmithKline and their response was...

    Anyone know any brands that are safe? I'm trying to check into Gallo, but haven't heard anything back yet.

    I am a celiac and finally was able to convince my sister to get tested after a year of nagging. She went to her doctor for the blood test, and all they would give her was a cholesterol test. She tried to explain that she needed the antibody panel, and they won't budge. Does anyone know where she can go outside of her doctor to get tested?

    Thanks for the info! I was figuring that I would probably have to bring some snacks for the 3 days I was at port. I selected gluten free in my profile, but perhaps I'll also give them a call just to confirm, and to see what I can expect. I'm headed to the Caribbean!

    Has anyone had any experience with Princess Cruise Lines? I'm going on a 7 day cruise in May. They claim they can accomodate the diet, but without knowing anybody that has done this successfully, I'm a bit skeptical. I'm trying to figure out if I should pack any food to bring with me so I don't spend a week starving on vacation.

    I emailed Wyder's and received this reply: Thanks for your inquiry. Our Peach and Apple ciders do not contain any gluten. However, our Pear and Raspberry ciders may have some gluten so for safety reasons unfortunately we would have to recommend that persons allergic to gluten not consume our Pear or Raspberry ciders. Looks like the Pear Cider...

    You can find potato starch flour in most regular grocery stores in the Kosher section.

    Yes, the chocolate pudding is also gluten-free. I belive it's even labeled that way on the back of the package. Enjoy!
