My finance (the one with celiac disease) and I were on vacation in Raleigh, North Carolina. It was our second day there, We went to Shane's Rib Shack in Raleigh, North Carolina. We got there at opening time and a huge crowd of people were able to order before us. So the kitchen got busy very quickly. I told the cashier taking our order that we were ordering...

I think it is important to speak with your friends about your gluten intolerance. Though, you may feel like you are burdening them there is an obligation among celiacs to spread the word and awareness of glulten intolerance and celiac disease. I know this sounds like a task and I cannot deny that it isn't a task. Your friends or yourself, should speak with...

We went to this restaurant. It was great and they had a gluten free system that was consistent between the front of the house and the back of the house. They brought out different color appetizer plates to indicate to the server to indicate to the kitchen to have "safe practices" and they were very accommodating. The owner came out and spoke with us and...

I thought I would let you guys know about the support group in the Annapolis area at the hospital in the Sajak Pavilion. Some of you may already be aware, but at the slight chance there is someone out there searching for some help I would mention it. It is a wonderful group that is very supportive. It is not your typical "sit around a circle and discuss...

What does DH stand for? I think it is important for him to discuss it with you. It is a serious illness. Maybe ask him that same questions you proposed to me..what would he do if you got sick and was unable to cook, or show him how....now is the time to learn..now is the time for him to understand the basics...or maybe get a new DH...lol

We have been advised not to eat out for awhile until we feel comfortable with the gluten-free lifestyle in our own homes. Is there any restaurants in Maryland people know about? Not like PF changes because frankly i don't trust them. My fiance is very sensitive to gluten so any tips would be great. Do you call the restaurant ahead or bring the celiac disease...

I emailed dermablend and I got this reply for them. I use their makeup and the two products listed specifically so I was relived when I got this reply. August 14, 2009 Thank you for your interest in our products. As a global leader, the L'Or

I have to say to everyone that I feel overwhelmed with gratitude for the amount of support that is out there. Everything has been helpful...the patience, the tips, and the sense of urgency. Sometimes I get so sad that he is sad, frustrated or angry, and then feel bad for feeling bad myself when he feels bad. We both are becoming more and more serious then...

Some one had already told me on here to consider lip balms etc...as a source of gluten. But what about shampoo's, conditioners, soaps, etc?? Can those be a source off gluten too? If so are there any recommendations?

Thank you for finding me when I couldn't find you. I feel you must have been sent to me by the celiac gods. I want to thank you for all the advice you have given me. I will be sure to pass on the word to Brent and begin the process as soon as possible. I have already begun to take steps to help Brent heal. I wanted to ask you about Candida? We are wondering...

I just went out and got some b-12. and i hadn't thought about the makeup or lipgloss...i just wear lip balm sometimes..any makeup or product suggestions? where can i find the product thread. I am not entirely sure how to use this post yet. I tried to get in touch with the user Yolo...

Everyone's advice is very helpful...keep it coming. We are getting ready to go on vacation so I am trying to prepare the best I can. Everything is harder on the road, but we have to go 9it is with his family) As far as the manufacturer for prescription drugs..how do i know who makes it? is it on the bottle? i will mention the other test for his other...

Hi Everybody, I am new to this forum. About a year ago my fiance was diagnosed with celiac disease. I have a few questions about the disease, but most of all how i can help. For the past year, we have made blind attempts to guide him through the gluten-free lifestyle and it has been tough to figure it all out. We are still making silly mistakes (like today...
