I'm about to change the subject here momentarily, and address the computer brainiacs in our midst (Peter? Ptaum? Janet?):

The visual field on my laptop is suddenly much smaller, i.e., pages will not all fit...I have to scroll across and then back to read all of the sentences. Now, this very likely has everything to do with the chaos of our current two-posts-out universe--I mean, coincidences just do not happen--but whatever the cause, I cannot fix it back. It's like the pages have been blown up a little, and they don't all fit on my screen. WHAT'S GOING ON? This is more than a Magic Triangle fix, I can just feel it...... :huh::rolleyes:

I jus' don' unnerstann' computers......

Emily--

Something like this happened to me the other night--I have Vista, and at the bottom right of the screen, somehow the size changed from 100% to 125% and the page didn't fit anymore.

GAH!!! The same thing is happening to me! Just started yesterday I think. I have to scroll over a little every time a new page loads because the words run off on the right a little bit. <_<

Just ran up and checked the desk top that has XP--look at the bottom right just over where the time is. It should say 100% with an arrow beside it that drops down other %'s.

Gotta go get dinner--hope that helped :)

What Patti is referring to is in Internet Explorer. I don't normally use it; I use Mozilla Firefox for most things. I haven't seen a problem with Firefox, but I just used IE to look at the board, and noticed that I had horizontal scroll bars. I reduced it to 88% and they went away.

In IE, pressing <ctrl>+ will zoom the view in, <ctrl>- will zoom out. You can do this by accident. Or your cat can do it for you. :lol:

Oh, Peter! I use Firefox, too.....and I have the horizontal scroll bar....that's what I have to use to read the sentences in full! Bizarre.....I don't seem to have Patti's magic percentage arrow, either...... :(

Wait....I'll try the IE trick with CNTRL -............

Hmmmmmm......nope.

I'll keep trying. Carry on!!

Patti, you mentioned that Broncobux had a Celiac group at MySpace....do you know if he still has one? I couldn't find any celiac group actually, but maybe I am not searching in the right place.

Are you going away for you Dad's b-day party, or was it an anniversary (I can't remember) that you were asking about invitations in another thread?

Bev, the Cape?? I wish we had things like that out west. The Cape sounds so exciting, like royalty, will you be lunching with the Kennedy's? HAVE FUN!

Julie,

I don't know if the Celiac group is still active. For the life of me, I can't remember much about it to give you a clue as to what to look for. I'm drawing a blank, I'm afraid. This was quite a while ago.

Yes--it's my dad's birthday party tomorrow :)

That's ok Patti, thanks for trying.

I don't see any sign of any group related to celiac, the groups do come and go so maybe Broncobux's group is no longer. It would have been fun to see if some of the older members of the forum who don't come around anymore were in that group.

Happy Birthday to your dad. What an amazing thing to celebrate! 80 years :D

Emily, I would say yes they are basically the same thing. Both are social networking websites.

They might vary a little with the features that are offered, like with MySace you can put music up on your page and videos, I'm not sure if you can do that with Face book.

OMGawd--that is so funny!!!! :lol:

Wow--I'm really glad that you found the % thingy--I shoulda thought to tell you about it, but it never dawned on me. The only reason I even thought of it for Emily is because mine somehow switched over recently and I couldn't see the edges.

      Oral thrush question

      By Rejoicephd · Posted

      Hi @JulieRe.  I just found your post.  It seems that I am also experiencing thrush, and my doctor believes that I have fungal overgrowth in my gut, which is most likely candida.  I'm seeing my GI doctor next week, so I'm hoping she can diagnose and confirm this and then give me an antifungal treatment.  In the meantime, I have been working with a functional medicine doctor, doing a candida cleanse and taking vitamins. It's already helping to make me feel better (with some ups and downs, of course), so I do think the yeast is definitely a problem for me on top of my celiac disease and I'm hoping my GI doctor can look into this a bit further.  So, how about you?  Did the candida come back, or is it still gone following your fluconazole treatment?  Also, was it awful to take fluconazole?  I understand that taking an antifungal can cause a reaction that sometimes makes people feel sick while they're taking it.  I hope you're doing better still !

      Advice while waiting for testing

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      I'm so sorry you're going through this—the "gluten challenge" is notoriously brutal, and it's awful to deliberately make yourself sick when you've already found the answer. For the joint pain, many people find that over-the-counter anti-inflammatories like ibuprofen can help take the edge off, and using heating pads or warm baths can provide some direct relief for the aches. For the digestive misery, stick to simple, easy-to-digest foods (like plain rice, bananas, and bone broth) and drink plenty of water and electrolytes to stay hydrated. It feels like the longest month ever, but you are doing the right thing to get a clear diagnosis, which can be crucial for your long-term health and getting the proper care. Hang in there; you can get through this! This article, and the comments below it, may be helpful:

      Gluten free beer ?

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Daura Damm (a sponsor here) uses AN-PEP enzymes and filtering in their brewing process to reduce/remove gluten, and it actually tests below 10ppm (I've see a document where they claim 5ppm).

      How Come Gluten Didnt Bother Me In Italy

      By trents · Posted

      This topic has come up before on this forum and has been researched. No GMO wheat, barley and rye are commercially available in the USA. Any modifications are from hybridization, not laboratory genetic modification. Better toleration of wheat, barley and rye products in other countries is thought to be due to use of heirloom varieties of these cereal grains as opposed to the hybrids used in the USA which contain much larger amounts of gluten.
