Nanaimo Bc

Hi Everyone,

In late July/early August, I will be trapping myself in a van with my two kids to go and visit my folks :blink: . I intend to pack a suitcase of gluten-free cereal, Envirokids bars, buns, etc. for Ty, but I am looking for info on where to buy supplies in Nanaimo should I need them. I doubt we'll be eating out much, we'll pack a lunch/snacks for day trips, but if we run out or I need to pick up something I don't know where to go.

I did email the Nanaimo Celiac Assoc. contact, but I haven't heard back yet and it's been over a week, so I am looking for your expertise.

Also any tips on whether any food on the BC Ferries is gluten-free? I doubt it, but it doesn't hurt to ask.

Maybe I'll check the Kinnikinnick website for a store locator. That's all I can think of.

Oh yeah, we'll be spending the night in Kamploops on the way to Nanaimo, ideas for supper?

Not sure where we'll stay on the way back. Salmon Arm, maybe?

      Rectal pain

      By cristiana · Posted

      I also have experienced this from time to time.  It seems to tie in with episodes of IBS, eating too much fibre but also because I have issues with my pudendal nerve - perhaps some sort of inflammation.  Not fun at all when it strikes.

      Impossible to get diagnosis?

      By trents · Posted

      Do the skin care products that give you a rash list wheat as an ingredient or are you assuming from your reaction that they contain gluten? It is possible that not only do you have celiac disease, which is not an allergy but an autoimmune disorder, but that you also have a wheat allergy.

      Thank you, I’m very happy to be here!! Yes, lately I get rashes and itching when I accidentally use topical skin products with gluten in them. I got a bad rash around my hairline after unknowingly using glutenous hairspray, and a near-full-body rash with a sea salt spray that I guess I rinsed off insufficiently in the shower. Neither looked like typical dermatitis herpetiformis to me based on the posts I’ve read here—both were just large patches, red and slightly raised, with no blisters to speak of. At least yet. The sea salt spray was used yesterday and I noticed the itching this morning, with the rash forming obviously by this afternoon and evening.

      Thanks so much for your thorough reply! I was able to schedule with the local pediatric gastroenterologist who specializes in celiac but we have to wait 3 months to see her.

      Sorry, meant to type "or dermatitis herpetiformis for short". What? Every time I try it, the abbreviation for this skin condition is converted to the full length term. I'm trying to type "D" followed by "H".
