You wouldn't see them on yourself. You wouldn't pm yourself. I see them on you but not on me.

I'm not exactly sure of what you're asking. If you click on your name or the little green arrow to the right of it above your avatar, it'll pull up your profile and you can see the options.

EDIT: Sheesh, there's no way I could explain it better than Karen did!!! laugh.gif

Look under my dog pic here. See the envelope & the little " guy"? If you push the little envelope you can directly pm someone.

Brain fog + senior moments. Oy!

I have AAADD ---Age Activated Attention Deficit Disorder. I think I read somewhere that's a side effect of celiac.tongue.gif

cougie- your little guy has a negative or red dot when I look too!. Do we have a note to each other or something that we haven't read. I actually positived someone today so its not that. I'll go look at messages.

It has something to do with adding people as friends. I clicked on Karen's to see if it would tell me what it meant, and I think I added her as a friend.

ah. If you are already friends, you have a negative sign which means you'll remove that person as a friend if you click again.

I think I must have removed her the first time.

OK! I got it! I put my cursor over the red dot on Cougie & it said "remove friend". Since Cougie & I are already friends, we can't "friend" (green) each other we can only "unfriend" (red) . Try it Cougie. Unfriend me then see if the dot turns green.

The "friend" icon appears below your avatar. If you are currently friends with that member, the lower right corner will have a red minus sign, meaning remove friend. If you are not friends, you will see a green plus sign, meaning add friend.

Peter and I share the same birth year, which gives me the right to a bit of a tease. :lol::rolleyes:

      It sounds like you're dealing with a complex situation, and I can understand how frustrating it must be not to have a clear answer. Gut health can indeed play a significant role in various aspects of our well-being, including hair health.

      I have found similar benefits from thiamine. I was diagnosed with celiac at 16 and never really recovered despite strict gluten and dairy free diet and no detectable antibodies on checkup bloodworks. I’ve tried stopping the b1 but start to feel bad again- I wanted my doctors to do more extensive testing for the different thiamine transporters and enzymes which would be a better indication if I was deficient or dependent on it but everyone dismisses it (there are know genetic mutations where you need to take it daily for life). I have looked into Thiamine Responsive Megablast Anemia and I have a lot of the more mild symptoms of the disease that manifest when thiamine isn’t given to the patient such as optic neuritis… I just find the parallels interesting. i think that celiacs could be a side issue of inflammation that resulted from vitamin deficiencies. I was eating a lot of sugar leading up to my diagnosis and since eating gluten free didn’t make me feel much better, I’m wondering if this was more the underlying issue (sugar heavily depletes b1). I usually take 1.5g thiamine a day.

      Thank you for your welcome and reply.  Yes I've been carefully reading labels looking for everything in bold and have been amazed by what I have seen. However Heinz tomato and basil soup is wheat free so I m thinking I already have ulcers?  The acid could be causing the pain . My pain always starts in one place then follows the same route through me . GP confirmed that is the route of our digestive system.  So much pain from stabbing to tearing. If I throw in milk with lactose it's horrific.  Many years of it now, won't go into details but been seeing a consultant for a supposedly different problem . Wondering what damage has been done over the years. Many thanks for your reply. Wishing you the very best.

      Welcome to the forum community, @Fluka66! Did you realize that the vast majority of all canned soups use wheat starch as a thickener, including such common commodities as Campbell's tomato soup?

      Hello. Any help would really steady my nerves right now. I realised recently that certain food left me in agonising pain so eliminated from my diet. I also have a swollen lymph node. My very caring Dr did some blood tests and I went back the other day to see another equally caring Dr . She looked at the test results one result has come back with something wrong. It came very fast so I'm afraid I didn't catch what it was. Anyway the urgent referral to ENT. She did say as I had already eliminated gluten it wouldn't say anything on the results and neither Drs nor I were prepared to reintroduce gluten . I've just had some tomato soup and again in agony only thinking this must have aggravated maybe existing problems. Does anyone know what I'm facing now ? My swollen lymph node , pain when eating gluten and lactose and I'm assuming the acidity of tomatoes triggering pain.  I'm trying to stay calm and to be honest I've been in intolerable pain at times rendering me unable to stand up straight but I've always just got on with it . Guess I'm reaching out and would really appreciate any wise or unwise words at this stage. Wishing you all the very best as you live with this illness. Fluka66
