I got my Celiac bracelets! They're green and pretty cool. I'm going to start passing them out today at school. Only giving em to people that'll wear them, but I already got about 6 people that say they will. :)

I didn't know they have a celiac disease awareness month! Well, there's our excuse to be chatty about it without feeling pushy.

You can also buy them from the University of Chicago or from Melonie (head of the yahoo group, Silly Yaks, that puts out the gluten-free restaurant list).

Most people seem to get them from the first one, though I've seen a few with the Chicago ones. The difference... Maryland ones are: Making Tracks for Celiacs and then on the other side it says CFCR (meaning center for celiac research). The chicago ones say Gluten-Free, or something to the point like that, as do Melonie's.

Thank you everyone for the info. I just emailed them. Have a nice Holiday.

      Yeah I think my body is definitely telling me to lay off the alcohol I just don’t seem to agree with it right now but that might be because my gut is still trying to heal.

      We are a couple with celiac trying to find a concierge doctor in Palm Beach Gardens/West Palm/ Jupiter area that has knowledge of celiac .  Help!

      Thank you so much for your validation. I completely agree with you that the crackers COULD be the culprit even with very small trace amounts (less than 20ppm) and accumulating over time - I am at the point where I am about to request that my son gets retested to make sure that my "control subject" is still testing perfectly lol. I have a meeting with my celiac disease doc tomorrow and will run the crackers by him to see if he is willing to retest in a few weeks. I have not had any of them for the past 3 weeks so far, so fingers crossed, we can retest and hopefully find out if it is them. And no - I have been scouring EVERYTHING to make sure nothing else has changed. Only use gluten-free lip products and toothpaste so not there either (but very good suggestion). Thank you for validating me. I feel like many are just saying "you are not being gluten-free enough - but I do have a perfect 16 year track record that proves otherwise - so has to be something sneaky.

      OMG thank you so much for validating me in my "craziness" of being on the hunt for the culprit in my case. "Unfortunately" I do not eat any of the foods you mention, but have stopped eating the crackers that are labeled certified gluten-free to see if they might be the problem. I did NOT know about chicken being injected with gluten liquid - that is horrible!  Hoping my doc will agree to retest after I have been off the crackers for a while. My biggest mystery is - why do I not have ANY symptoms of being cross contaminated or glutened? There is no damage (thank godness) to my villi, and normally I will get canker sores the moment something is even the slightest bit cross contaminated... the hunt continues and I will follow up once I find the answer. Glad you found yours!

      Fascinating, thanks! So Canada (at least in 2017) had changed the criteria for detection in oat products from 20 to 5ppm. If the regulation still stands in 2025 then that would mean that any product sold in Canada that contains oats and is claimed to be gluten-free must (theoretically) test less than 5ppm...
