Can't the airline attendants do something about that?

In retrospect, yeah, probably. It was the first time I'd ever flown alone, and I'd only taken one other flight in memory, and I was with people I knew and it was just to California. I had no idea you could even ask attendants about this sort of stuff. I probably thought about asking, and then decided against it, wondering what on earth they'd do about it. Plus again, I hadn't really seen any empty seats at all on that flight, except for the one lone seat on the other side of me. To this day I still have this funny mental image of myself moving over to the other seat, and having him be like "why did you move?" LOL.

I hear if you're having a bad enough time in the flight, they'll move you for free to one of the first class seats for the remainder of the flight. Had I known that THEN, I sure as HECK would have said something!

The good news is, I never did see him again and I can trump every single person I know in the "worst flight ever" category :)

:lol: :lol: :lol:

I try to keep that perspective when I travel. The worst experiences make the best stories (although some of them take longer to reach the 'story' stage).

      @BoiseNic Have you tried the Autoimmune Protocol Diet?  This Paleo diet cuts out most everything except meat, veggies and some fruits.  By cutting out all the carbohydrates, especially processed ones, the carbohydrate loving bacteria and fungi like Candida get starved out and die off.  After that, taking probiotics to help repopulate the gut is beneficial.  The new strains of bacteria don't have to fight the established unhealthy yeasts and bad bacteria which causes a rise in histamine levels which can make one feel sick.   Certain vitamins help keep bad bacteria and fungi at bay.  Thiamine is one.  Antibiotics can deplete Thiamine stores.  The Gluten free diet can be low in Thiamine and the other vitamins and minerals needed for healthy skin and digestive tract.  Vitamin C, Vitamin D, zinc, and Niacin B 3 are important to skin health.  Niacin is especially helpful in Dermatitis Herpetiformis.  I like the kind that flushes (Nicotinic Acid - not the same as nicotine in cigarettes).  The flushing gets less and less the longer it's taken, but Niacinamide which doesn't cause flushing can be taken instead.     Here's an interesting article.  Compare the bacteria mentioned in the article with your Skinesa and then with the Visbiome probiotics.   The Role of Probiotics in Skin Health and Related Gut–Skin Axis: A Review https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10385652/ Visbiome https://www.visbiome.com/collections/all/products/visbiome-capsules

      gluten-free and continued upper left side pain after drinking wine

      The short answer is if it hurts, don't do it. Yogurt may help sooth your gut and repopulate it with benificial bacteria.  I prefer whole milk yogurt because it is not processed and the no fat yogurt is processed dehydrated milk powder with guar gums and water added to make it mouth feel like fat.  Especially in early healing there may be other foods you cannot tolerate for a while.

      I guess I would encourage you to abstain from the wine for a while. If you know something causes you pain then it is a good idea not to do it if you don't have to.

      We have had numbers of others on this forum report pain in that same area. Have you been checked for an H. Pylori infection? This is something very common in the celiac population.
