Speaking of advertising, I recently joined this group, and got an advertising e-mail from "Scott-Free Newsletter". I think the only way they could have gotten my e-mail is from joining this group, and I'm a bit POed about it!

The board adminstrator (Scott) sends updates from time to time to interested members about celiac.com, the parent site to this board. You can opt out during registration--apparently you didn't. You can change your mind at any time. Click on "My Controls" at the top of the page, select "Email settings" under "Options" on the left hand side, and clear the check box beside "Send me any updates sent by the board administrator." You will no longer receive the update notices. Roughly one in three is about the newsletter (like yesterday's). The rest are about new information posted on the celiac.com site, which is often useful.

Claire, the founder and administrator of this site is Scott Adams (who also has celiac disease, by the way, he founded this site and this forum to help other sufferers). The newsletter you mentioned is his newsletter, with useful information on new developments on celiac disease. As Peter (psawyer) mentioned, you are able to opt out of getting it, which you can still do.

Hello Diamondheart:

The fact that you got an email from us should not be a surprise--it is spelled out clearly in our "Privacy Policy" that isn't hidden from anyone--the link to it is on every page in this forum and the policy states:

"Information about our customers is very important to us, and we are not in the business of selling it to others. We do not sell, rent or give away our mail lists or e-mail lists to anyone. We collect personal information from you whenever you register for e-mail updates, register on our message board and calendar, send us e-mail, subscribe to our newsletter or send an article from our Web site using our "Tell A Friend" feature. You will be added to our site's e-mail updates, and you can opt out of these updates at any time by following the removal instructions at the bottom of each e-mail update."

Instead of being "POed" about such things it's always better to read a site's privacy policy in advance before signing up for any services from the site. In the case of our site's email updates opting out of them takes two mouse clicks and about 2 seconds. Opting in will give you updates to new articles that are added to celiac.com, as well as other marketing material that does not exceed 2-3 e-mail per month.

Take care,

yesterday i replied to a thread about candidiasis and celiac. i can't seem to find it now. the thread, or my post, that is. has it been deleted or something?

lindalee Enthusiast

tried that 3 times - wasnt' there :huh:

Ursa Major Collaborator

I'm stumped here. I went to check out all your posts, and the last one before this one was from August 11th. Meaning, the one you're looking for (your reply from yesterday) doesn't exist. Somehow it didn't post, apparently.

mle-ii Explorer

It was removed. :( I had some posts I really wanted to save. Oh and I wasn't the reason why the thread was deleted by the way. Perhaps I can dig through my temporary internet files to find them and add the ones I wrote to my blog.

What particular information in the thread were you interested in?

mle-ii Explorer

Perhaps it was deleted. :(

NIKKI, I'm allergic to latex, so I buy unpowdered vinyl gloves from a company in New Jersey, George Glove Company. I use a lot of them when I'm painting.Ma'am and Miss Firstname are fine with me; it's a custom here in the South. But just wait until you're old (I'm 73.), and some stupid, middle-aged, male (It's always a male!), sales clerk calls you "young lady." The idiots think I'm stupid and senile enough to be flattered!!! :ph34r: :ph34r: :ph34r: A couple of years ago I decided to stop giving them a polite smile, and began a campaign to re-educate them. Now, when an idiot calls me "young lady," I say, "I know you think you're flattering me, but you aren't. I'm old, and you're insulting my intelligence." :D :D :D Cissie

I looked, do you remember what words you might have used?

I search for all of your posts with the word latex in it and all I found was this thread. I'm guessing either I didn't use the right word or else it was deleted.

She was writing about her problems with her mouth and how she took off her latex gloves and ate a potato and somehow after that she has gum problems. I wrote back I was just getting ready to use bleach and gloves. Oh, she said Playtex Gloves. and also latex - I had never heard of such a reaction. Thanks, I'll keep trying.

I tried to find the quote with George Glove Co. search...nothing came up?

If you can't find it, it was probably deleted.

      It's possible he's in the early stages of celiac disease, and it has been caught before villi damage. The blood test results so far do indicate possible celiac disease, as well as his strong family history of celiac disease. If his symptoms get better on a gluten-free diet this would be another strong indication. Personally I think it's definitely better to proceed on the safe side and go gluten-free, rather than to risk severe villi damage and all that comes with it.

      For some context: I have type 1 diabetes (T1D) (since 11 years) and celiac disease(since 4 years) For about a year now, I’ve been experiencing permanent floating and undigested stools. I’ve had a pancreas elastase test done. The first result was extremely low at 44, but a second test came back at 236. My doctor said that since one result is normal, it rules out pancreatic insufficiency because, according to them, elastase levels would always stay low if that were the issue. However, could the 236 have been a false result? My doctor also thinks I don’t have pancreatic insufficiency because I’m able to gain weight. I also get hgh injections as my bone age is younger than my real age, this also contributes to weight gain, so I dont know if weight gain can rule out malabsorption. But maybe if I had real malabsorption I wouldnt gain any weight even with hgh? For celiac, I’m on a gluten-free diet, but there might b small cross-contamination from things like pepper labeled as “may contain gluten.” or sausages which dont have gluten ingredient but say may contain. My doctor said that small amounts like this wouldn’t harm me and even mentioned that an occasional small exposure to gluten may not do much damage (which seems questionable since I thought even tiny amounts could be harmful). She also said that when Im older (Im m17) I could try eating small amounts of gluten and do antibody blood tests to see if I can tolerate small amounts or not. For reference, I’m asymptomatic when it comes to celiac, so I have no idea if I’ve been “glutened” or not. My first concerning celiac blood test was semi high IgA, then 3 months later we did a check up and my IgA was high so it was confirmed celiac. Since than I’ve had celiac antibody tests done yearly to see how my diet is going, and they’ve been negative, but I’ve heard those aren’t always reliable. I’ve never had a follow-up endoscopy to confirm healing. I also always kept eating „may contain gluten“ food. (I live in Germany so I dont know if „may contain gluten“ is as risky as in the usa but I suppose both are as risky) These stool issues started around the same time I was doing excessive heavy lifting at the gym. Could stress or lifting have triggered this, or is that less likely since the symptoms persist even after I stopped lifting? Occasionally, I’ll feel very mild stomach discomfort, but it’s rare and not severe. My doctor (also a dietist) said floating, undigested stools could still be “normal,” but that doesn’t seem realistic to me. Could this be impacting my vitamin or protein absorption? I also did a fructose intolerance breath test and had a high baseline of 20 ppm, but it never increased—only decreased over time. I fasted for 12 hours and didn’t eat fructose beforehand, but my stomach didn’t feel completely empty during the test. Could this mean the test was inaccurate? For lactose intolerance, I did the breath test but only fasted 10 hours and had eaten lactose prior because I wasn’t aware of the proper diet restrictions. My results were: 14, 12, 15, 25, 35, 40, 40 ppm—which would be considered positive. But given that I didn’t fast long enough or follow the right diet, could this result be unreliable? Has anyone else dealt with similar symptoms? What ended up being the cause for you? And sorry for the long text!

      The Docs' and NP haven't committed to Celiac determination yet but say go gluten-free diet because...  And I have with improved physical results - feeling better; overall functions better, and more energy.  Still 10 pounds down in weight but I still have BMI of ~23.  It's been just over a month now gluten-free diet.  I'm fortunate I get along with diary/milk well and most other foods. I wanted ask about this site's sponsor, gliadin X.  If this is legit, seems like a good product to keep on hand. Though it says it's only a safety for incidental gluten contact - not a substitue for gluten-free diet. What's your input on this? This may be sensitive subject since they're a sponsor. I've used resources here and other sites for information, gluten-free food/product lists. So thank you for all that support. That's it for now - Stay warm...  -2F this morning in Colorado!

      I did suffer with gastric symptoms before diagnosis, but got all sorts of weird and wacky symptoms after going gluten free.   Things got much better once my antibodies fell to normal levels, but it took years (please don't panic, many people's go to normal levels relatively quickly when following a gluten-free diet). Causes of the symptoms you mention that I also experienced were iron supplements, a temporary dairy intolerance (this is common in coeliacs and should pass when your gut heals properly), and eating oats, as mentioned above.  Other symptoms I got were musculoskeletal pain after diagnosis, but again, once my coeliac blood tests were normal, I had no more pain. I did notice patterns emerging in foods that I reacted to and learned to steer clear of them, then gradually reintroduced them when my gut healed, such as soya, pure oats and dairy products.    You might like to keep a food diary.

      Well the conflicting results continue as the biopsy has come back negative. 😵‍💫 Waiting to discuss further but I really don’t know what to think now? Eight biopsy’s were taken from duodenum which surely should be sufficient if it was coeliac?
