Is there a way to remove the filter that turns the letters C D, when put together, into "celiac disease" every time????? Thanks! . . . Lynne

I don't think so. Sorry....

VydorScope Proficient

There is, but Scott has to do it and I already asked, and he already ingored the request :) Same goes for G,F

If I am talking about a C D and not celiac disease, I just seperate the two letters. I do the same for D H so that they don't think I am taling about my husband.

you can always just put periods between the letters.

Sorry but members' posts can only be helpful if a search here, or at some search engine can find the key words associated with the information that has been posted. People here use C D and G F all constantly, which makes finding their info by others in a search impossible. For this info to help others it must contain important key words (like celiac disease and gluten free).

Take care,

Scott

I noticed when I posted last that "G F" (without the space) got changed to "gluten-free." Why is this happening now? Is there a reason that acronyms need to be changed? Is there a list somewhere that outlines which words/phrases will be changed?

Michelle

who's not thrilled about having words "censored." :P

I had a similar thing happen this morning too.

I posted a recipe and one of my ingredients (a tade-name grain) was changed to "Lame Advertisment".

I had typed the word s-a-l-b-a (without the dashes).

:o This is strange, I know if you put a swear word in, it will change, even if it's also a word that could be used normally. I've had that done :lol: We just thought it was funny.

I don't know all the words, but definitely G F will change as will C D...it changes to celiac disease.

I think Lame Advertisement is another...it changes to Lame Advertisement

Lame Advertisement gluten-free cf

This is kind of fun

Guest melannen

poop, Lame Advertisement, gluten-free

hahahaha

you're right, it is fun :D

I wonder if they will correct all the acronyms? ds dh dd DH "D" "C" BIL SIL ....

will they correct typos too? :P

Mamato2boys Contributor

Lame Advertisement, poop, gluten-free, celiac disease

:lol:

:lol:

LOL!

I just found it curious, since I don't think this was happening when I first joined. There is one forum I'm a member of that simply links acronyms to a dictionary so if someone doesn't understand it, they can look it up. Hmmm...let's try a couple others to see if they change:

AFAIK

YMMV

ROTFLMAO

Michelle :D

Hmmm...guess it's not a very thorough censor! :P

Michelle

Jestgar Rising Star

maybe we should run the list of "forbidden" words and see what gets changed

Guest nini

I think it's crazy when you are reading about someone's girlfriend and they keep referring to their gluten free... or when someone is talking about the music on the compact disc in their car player and it comes out, I have the new Madonna celiac disease !!!!!!!!!!! :P

Guest Viola

Let me try something :lol:

My jerk took a poop on the golf course and I had to clean it up...don't want our golf balls to end up in it. :D

Oh, this is too funny :lol: 'jerk' is exchanged for the normal term for a female dog, and of course we all know what 'poop' replaced. :lol::lol:

Is it the same issue with referring to your DH (dear/darned/damned husband) and DH (dermatitis herpetiformis)?

I guess both could be a pain in the @$$! LOL!

note: I had to censor "ass" myself, since the program apparently doesn't find it offensive!!!

I wonder what would happen if you put "hole" at the end of it!

I used the a word and it changed to jerk

Scott Adams Grand Master

For bad words it is obvious why the filter is there. Some companies' names are changed to "Lame Advertisement" because they have broken our rules and used this forum to advertise their products.

For the rest like G.F. or C.D. Open Original Shared Link.

Take care,

Scott

      I was not diagnosed with celiac disease, but am gluten-intolerant. I have been gluten free for almost 10 years. In April of this year (2025), I got a steroid shot. I have been able to eat sourdough bread before with no problems. After the steroid shot, I developed gluten-neuropathy, and I could no longer eat sourdough bread, and now the neuropathy returns with small amounts of gluten.  I also get POTS (Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome) when I eat gluten. My heart beats so fast in the middle of the night I can't sleep. I'm usually up for hours.

      This is my current exhausting battle with the medical field. As Ive mentioned in past I was diagnosed in 1994 by colonoscopy and endoscopy and was told i was celiac and to stay away from wheat and Ill be just fine.NOPE not at all in fact im worse thanks to being disregarded and my new word that was given that fits perfectly medically gaslight for over 30 years.I was not informed by anyone about the condition other than its a food allergy. Long story short if it wasn't for this website.I would be so much worse. I have been glutenfree since 1994 and was diagnosed with many other foods in 2007. I have stayed away from those items, except dairy sometimes I'll cheat when I know I'll be home a few days.My work history is horrible thanks to my digestive issues. I had my past primary for 25 years and everything im going through, he danced around celiac disease. My last day of employment was March 08, 2023 I was a bus driver and took pride in that.I get sick easily and when covid hit me and I stopped taking tramadel to push to give my bloated body a break, I haven't " bounced " back.Though not that well before but worse now.I applied for disability because yet again I was fired solely on health, which by the way seems to be legal because no lawyer wants to help.I was denied and my primary stated let me fluff it up a bit.FLUFF IT UP A BIT?He has been my doctor for 25 years! All that Im going through was basically ignored and not put together. I switched primary doctor and seeing new gi and its EXTREMELY EXHAUSTING because they are staying all my test came back clean, good, its normal. Except THANKYOU LORD JESUS HLA DQ2 is positive that Itty bitty tiny little test of positive FINALLY VALIDATION RIGHT.No, Im still struggling and fighting its not fair

      Since medical insurance is not affected directly by celiac disease on an ongoing basis (i.e. medication, medical devices, daily monitoring, home care nursing, etc), I rather doubt anyone would be denied a policy for having it as a pre-existing condition. I’ve certainly never been and I have two pre-existing conditions that are managed with diet alone and both are long-well-known by my doctors and via medical testing and procedures. Insurance is all about risk management, not health.
