Happy Coeliac Awareness Week Australia! Grab your banner here, Share & Make Aware!

It’s that time of year again; our very precious week of paying special attention to coeliac disease. This year, Coeliac Australia asks that we help reduce the time between onset of symptoms and a formal diagnosis.

If you have been following this blog, you might know that it took 9 years for me to get a coeliac diagnosis. If the medical staff I met had more information, and especially if I had known what to look for and what questions to ask, I wouldn’t have had to endure years of pain. There are so many people out there who are still looking for answers, and we can all do our bit to help by increasing awareness.

YOU can make a change by simply sharing your knowledge and spreading the word.

Coeliac Australia suggests that we download their posters and ask to put them up at our local doctor’s surgery. You can find their posters on the following link: http://www.coeliac.org.au/caw/
