I have never started a topic, but we are goin to PV for the holidays and I am trying to find other english speaking Celiacs in or around the area - I am desperately going to need help with food while I am there and do not have a clue where to go. I don't speak or read spanish. If anyone who reads this can give me another website to go to or some help, I would really appreciate it. With soo many americans and candians living there, there has got to be SOMEONE with this disease who can give me some pointers! Please source those think tanks of yours and get back to me!

You don't need to speak Spanish to get along in PV, Mexico. That is a highly developed resort area with many people that know the English language/at least enough that you can get your point across as to what your needs are. I went to Nuevo Vallarta, which is just outside PV,last spring for a week with my familiy. My granddaughter has celiac disease and I have a gluten intolerance and we got along just great---my son't family did have a kitchen in their place. We were staying at a time share resort and my husband and I ate out for all of our meals. Some of them we ate off menu and some were are buffets. Stick with fresh fruit and veggies, grilled meats, corn tortillas and just talk to your server to see what is on everything that you order. There is a WalMart with a grocery store in PV....you can go there and buy food to have in your room to supplement. Do not let the food situation hinder that fact that you are in that beautiful place....just go and enjoy the ocean. Barbara

      I’m so confused…

      Thank you. I already cut out dairy and eggs because I found out I was having a problem with them. To be honest I’m just getting worn out 😂

      Can food allergies like milk and soy flatten villi?

      By Deanne jones · Posted

      Hi Kitty, thank you for your e mail,  I have seen a nutritionist who seemed to be happy with the food diary I had been keeping and nothing was mentioned about extra vitamins, and I’m still using milk etc . The steroids seem to be working and everything is functioning as it should however,  the course of tablets finish at the end of February and I have an appointment with the consultant early April probably followed by another endoscopy, as far as I’m aware I have not been tested for vitamin B and will definitely discuss it with the doctor on my next visit.

      Being a burden to family/friends

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      It might be understandable to say "friends or family weeded me or you out of their lives". Some people are fearful of getting out of their comfortable known lives and having to make changes to accommodate another.   If they are too uncomfortable to walk a mile with me, I shake the dust off my feet and journey on.  They're just not ready to learn that lesson.  But you confidently keep going on your journey.  They can catch up later.

      You might also be sensitive to other things while you are healing. Dairy, for example. It won't harm you from a celiac standpoint but is inflammatory and could be bothering you. Have you been keeping a food & symptom journal? Might be worth it for a week to see if you notice something you are eating prior to the times you feel your worst. I hope you start feeling better soon.

      Recipe Apps?

      By lmemsm · Posted

      Someone recently recommended Superfoods for looking up recipes free of allergens or intolerances.  It's a web site but there's also an app.
