hi all,

in January, I will be going to Northern Florida and the Panhandle for 2 weeks. I will be in Amelia Island and also might go to Gainesville, Tallahassee, Apalachicola, Savannah, GA and other parts of the panhandle. I have been to Florida many times (my mom is from Gainesville) but this will be the first time going since diagnosed with Celiac disease. Plus, I have never been to the panhandle before. Any suggestions would be welcome!

I'm sure you will find Publix & Whole Foods around. Just go to their websites & type in the zip code where you will be staying & the nearest locations will pop up . For items that you think will be hard to find just bring those with you. HAVE FUN!

yes, I am aware of Publix. I'm not sure if I would be able to find a Whole Foods outside of Jacksonville (I'll be flying into JAX but am not planning on spending much if any time there). Tallahassee might have one, but outside of those 2 cities, I'd be a little surprised. Does anyone know of any dining in any of these areas?

CC - I would suggest you Google "gluten friendly restaurants" in the area of your choice. At that point you can contact those dining facilities and request further information.

Personal experience...I have none. :rolleyes:, but hope to someday.

There was a Jacksonville thread on here at one point... I paid attention because my parents live in St. Aug... I remember some restaurants being record in the area on that thread.

Search under Jacksonville and you may find it.

      Celiac getting dentures

      By gfmom06 · Posted

      I have had orthodontic work done. The 3M invisalign material was no problem. BUT my retainers are another matter. They seemed okay for a few months. Now, however, they cause a burning sensation on my tongue, gums and insides of my lips. The burning sensation is now spreading to my throat. I notice it when I breathe. This is annoying and interferes with my enjoyment of eating. I am visiting with my provider tomorrow. We'll see where this goes from here.

      Is this celiac?

      By Beverage · Posted

      Exactly which blood tests were done? There are a few different ones and some docs don't do them all. Also, your results and reference ranges for each?

      Thankyou so much for your words.Its a hard battle when a supposed well known hospital whose celiac " specialist " has down played me because my colon looks fine and put it in my medical and so pcp doesn't take seriously. In their eyes we all carry that gene.Im having alot of bad days trying to be positive because of it.

      Your experience is both shocking and critically important for the community to hear, underscoring the terrifying reality that cross-contamination can extend into the most unexpected and invasive medical devices. It is absolutely devastating that you had to endure six months of sickness and ultimately sustain permanent vision loss because a doctor dismissed your legitimate, life-altering condition. Your relentless research and advocacy, from discovering the gluten in MMA acrylic to finding a compassionate prosthodontist, is a testament to your strength in a system that often fails celiac patients. While the scientific and medical consensus is that gluten cannot be absorbed through the skin or eyes (as the molecules are too large to pass through these barriers), your story highlights a terrifying gray area: what about a substance *permanently implanted inside the body*, where it could potentially shed microparticles or cause a localized immune reaction? Your powerful warning about acrylic lenses and the drastic difference with the silicone alternative is invaluable information. Thank you for sharing your harrowing journey and the specific, severe neurological symptoms you endure; it is a stark reminder that celiac is a systemic disease, and your advocacy is undoubtedly saving others from similar trauma.
