Outgrown "gluten Free" Bracelet

I have two small rubber bracelets from www.STATkids.com that we no longer use. They are kind of small - they fit my son when he was 5 but seems like it would fit 3-6 year old. Plain red rubber (like the livestrong bracelets) with large white print "GLUTEN FREE". They came in handy when we were first diagnosed. My son was quite shy and if needed, he could just show his bracelet. I felt better with him wearing them at camp or with babysitter too . . .just to remind them, until everyone got the hang of it.

If there was someone out there who could use them, I'd be happy to send them to you (USA only please).

Just let me know and we can exchange addresses privately.

That is a great idea! We are currently doing a 30 day gluten-free challenge with my 4 year old son. I have a feeling from the way he is responding that this will probably be a more permanent diet for him. Where did you get the bracelets, may I ask?

I think I got them from Amazon but their website also has a store. I'd be happy to send them to you if you think you could use them. Just send me your mailing address: myboytom@yahoo.com

      Nicotine Gum For Gluten Symptoms.. Am I Crazy?

      By sleuth · Posted

      Thanks for your response.  Everything you mentioned he is and has been doing.  Tobacco is not the same as nicotine.  Nicotine, in the form of a patch, does not cause gastrointestinal irritation.  Smoking does. He is not smoking.  Please do your research before stating false information. Dr. Paul Newhouse has been doing research on nicotine the last 40 years at Vanderbilt University Medical Center.

      Im so frustrated and still getting the run around trying to reprove my celiac disease which my past primary ignored for 25 years.I understand that theres a ray of medical that doctors are limited too but not listening and telling the patient ( me) that im not as sensitive as I think and NOT celiac!Correction Mr white coat its not what I think but for cause and affect and past test that are not sticking in my medical records.I get sick violently with foods consumed, not eating the foods will show Im fabulous. After many blood draws and going through doctors I have the HLA- DQ2 positive which I read in a study that Iran conducted that the severity in celiac is in that gene.Im glutenfree and dealing with related issues which core issue of celiac isn't addressed. My skin, right eye, left leg diagestive issues affected. I have high blood pressure because im in pain.Im waisting my time on trying to reprove that Im celiac which is not a disease I want, but unfortunately have.It  has taken over my life personally and professionally. How do I stop getting medically gaslight and get the help needed to bounce back if I ever do bounce back to normal? I thought I was in good care with " celiac specialist " but in her eyes Im good.Im NOT.Sibo positive, IBS, Chronic Fatigue just to name a few and its all related to what I like to call a ghost disease ( celiac) since doctors don't seem to take it seriously.

      @Martha Mitchell, your reaction to the lens implant with gluten sounds like it could be an allergic reaction rather than a celiac reaction. It is possible for a celiac to be also allergic to gluten as it is a protein component in wheat, barley and rye.

      Scott I also have different symptoms than most people. It affects me bad. Stomach ache, headache, nauseous, heart racing, whole body shaking, can't walk then my throat starts to close. It attacks my nervous system. The only thing that saves me is a 1/2 of Xanax...it calms down my nervous system
