To All,

Recently (in the last two weeks) I have noticed my follow topics have not been notifying me with a follow up email?

Is it possible a recent update disabled this feature by accident.

I just responded to a topic recently and I know other people have commented on other topics but I have gotten no notificaiton emails?

And I double checked I am following these threads?

I was just wondering if I was doing something wrong or other users having similar problems in the last 2 weeks or so?

Thanks,

Posterboy,

It's possible, as we did do an update recently. Can you go here and check what you are following and make sure there have been some new posts?

Do you still have your email notifications turned on?

Also, have you double checked your spam box to make sure they aren't going there?

Scott,

No, I am not getting responses for threads I am following?

They are not going to my spam either?

You can create a "Dummy profile" to test this feature to see if it is only mine or is happening board wide?

Then delete it.....but I know for at least the last couple weeks I am not getting "Follow Up" emails.

I don't always follow threads the way I once did......so it is more important now to get follow up emails when I do respond to a thread.....that would be  helpful to know about a response that I could help with....without the need to check the forum as much as I have in the past....

I hope this is helpful......

Also how do I just follow a major section in the forum??? instead of one topic?

Like just related issues and disorders section for example  https://www.celiac.com/forums/forum/17-related-issues-disorders/

This is where my research and expertise can most benefit the forum and how I can help best I think going forward...

TIA for your help!

FYI - I’ve been getting email notifications when there is a new post on a thread where I made a post.

Posterboy,

Very strange, I've asked the other moderators if they are getting notifications and they said they were.

Scott,

I wouldn't worry about it then.....if others are getting their reply's.....

I might have turned off the follow button on some of my replys of late and I am getting confused???

But I would like to know how to follow a forum section/topic?

I think Trents told me how once......but I didn't do it at the time...

If I don't get your reply for this thread.....I will know it just me that is having problems.

I am trying to focus on those still suffering issues......and sharing additional research that can help others while I reduce my time due to personal issues on the forum....

I've learned you can't do it all.....all the time....I have to pick and choice what I follow and how I can help etc.

I will still check back in as time allows.....but I am drifting away (at least for a season) and that is ok.....

I have some personal things I am choosing to focus on now (more) these days anyway ....and not just forum things etc...

I hope this is helpful.

Just look for the blue "Follow" box above the topic, or it may already be red and say "Following" as is the case with me in this topic:

      Anyone else get a lot of upper respiratory infections?

      Definitely worth speaking to your gastroenterologist about this.

      Anyone else get a lot of upper respiratory infections?

      I did get the pneumonia vaccine about 4 years ago. I had this amazing allergist who did all those vitamin deficiencies test and told to get that vaccine. Unfortunately she retired. I haven’t been to an allergist in a few years, I’m not sure what my levels are now. I did have a pulmonologist who wasn’t concern and said I seemed fine to him that I was young...

      Anyone else get a lot of upper respiratory infections?

      Yes I do have acid reflux. I’m not on anything for it at the moment. I sometimes wonder if that’s what it could be because I get heart burn every night. I may revisit my gastrointestinal doctor again. Thanks for the reply

      Hi @HelloFlowersGoodbyeFlour I wonder if you suffer from reflux, as if you do, you may find it could also be irritating your airways. I shall explain: I have to use a blue inhaler from time to time, and it seems to be related to reflux. Never had any trouble before my coeliac diagnosis, the reflux seemed to be something that developed following...

      Anyone else get a lot of upper respiratory infections?

      Since initially getting your D checked a few years ago, has it since rebounded to normal levels? Sounds like at some point you got it checked again.

I did have a pulmonologist who wasn’t concern and said I seemed fine to him that I was young etc. But yes I think I should at the very least get a different opinion. Thank you for your reply

      Hi @HelloFlowersGoodbyeFlour I wonder if you suffer from reflux, as if you do, you may find it could also be irritating your airways.  I shall explain: I have to use a blue inhaler from time to time, and it seems to be related to reflux.  Never had any trouble before my coeliac diagnosis, the reflux seemed to be something that developed following a holiday to France in 2019, where I had been exposed to gluten.    The reflux continued into the autumn and winter, my throat itched to begin with, particularly after meals, but it then that feeling of irritation seemed to spread to my lungs.  I even found it difficult to breathe on occasion. What stopped it in its tracks was using a wedge pillow at night, following a reflux diet (you can find them online), not eating 2-4 hours before bed and also having a dose of Gaviscon Advanced at night, which forms a barrier so that acid/food can't go back up your esophagus.  The throat irritation faded, and then I found it easier to breathe again. Just mentioning in case it could be a contributing factor.
