When posting messages that contain useful information please only use smilies at the start and end of the message to make it easier to copy it to the supplementary board. It is even more helpful if you post a copy of useful information on the supp board yourself.
There are quite a number of Facebook groups which are coeliac based. They are also private to the members. They are mostly well moderated to ensure responsible compliance. What they really do is enable other coeliacs to gather helpful information that can make their lives as coeliacs easier, locations to eat safely, food tips, holiday places, restaurants etc.
Facebook private groups abound for all manner of things. There are lots of support groups for various medical conditions. Examples would include the shingles group and the bowel and bladder groups which help provide support for others similarly affected by what can be distressing ailments. . I still like the message board here as it was a helpful haven for me when first diagnosed and I have enjoyed meeting people here, albeit not in person. There is good and bad everywhere in life and that includes Facebook.
