If you tell the hotel that you have a restricted medical diet then you might be surprised at how willing the hotel is to allow you to put food in their refrigerator. It also wouldn't surprise me if the hotel actually does have a set of microwaves and min-fridges that they just don't admit to having unless you push a little bit. Call the hotel and if the...

Here is my advice: 1. Get the "Find Me gluten-free" app for your smartphone. If you don't have a smartphone then buy a smart phone. The app will help you find gluten free restaurants and grocery stores that sell gluten free products. I will make a big difference in your life when you travel. 2. Plan in advance where you will buy food at and bring...

Biopsy is the gold standard, so yes you almost certainly have Celiac disease. My diagnosis happened in a way that is similar to yours. I had an endoscopy because of acid reflux. The doctor saw signs of Celiac in my intestines and took biopsies. My villi were almost completely flattened, but I never had any symptoms. Like you I was a silent Celiac and...

I've been considering taking one of the Bob & Ruth Gluten-free trips. If you have been on one of the trips I would appreciate it if you could share what your experience was like. Where did you go? How would you describe the age of the other travelers? What would you say that the average age was? Where there any families with children? ...

I'm sorry to hear that the podcast is gone. I miss it. I have a few thoughts... I wonder if it might have been possible to do some cross promotion with other celiac related media. For example, a celiac related magazine provides you with free advertisement and then you provide them with free advertisement. Perhaps the Celiac Disease Foundation might...

I'm married now, but when I was single I made too big a deal out of things that I thought would bother potential girlfriends. Once I was in a relationship I realized that the things that I worried about didn't bother other people as much as it bothered me. Now that we are a couple, my wife has shared some of the insecurities that she had while dating...

Does anyone know what happend to the Celiac.com podast? There is usually one new episode a month, but there have been no new episodes in 2013.

I talked to my dietitian (who also has Celiac disease) about whether I should avoid foods that are made on shared equipment. She told me that she does not avoid foods made on shared equipment. Her rationale is that the fact that the company gave you a warning shows that they are at least aware of the problem. If you instead buy the item from another manufacturer...

The latest renewal/expiration letter that I received from Gluten Free Living says nothing about the number of issues. The letter just gives me an option for 1 year or two years. I suspect that my previous renewal also said nothing about the number of issues.

I believe that the publishers of Gluten Free Living are taking advantage of their subscribers. They seem to be ending pre-paid subscriptions significantly early. For example, ending a two year subscription after only one year. I discovered this problem after I received a letter from Gluten Free Living telling me that my subscription was almost over....
