I don't like where they have the "view new posts" now. <_< Not many of you probably even use that feature .... you're always here! :lol:

:huh: ????

Isn't it next to MyControls like always??

I use the other one 'View Active Topics', down in the stats links. (Not coincidentally close to where this thread is shown when it has latest gabby post)

Is there aNOTHER 'New Posts' spot? :huh:

Yeah, it's still next to my controls, but it's way up at the top of the screen instead of down near the thread where it used to be, so you have to scroll up to hit it.

Ridgewalker Contributor

Yeah, the View New Posts button that I always use is moved. Same one as Carla, i assume. I had a moment of outraged panic before I found where it is now. :lol:

But .. ..but ... .it'll be a tainted transfer of the yellow jersey (the rare Tour de France reference ^_^ ) if it doesn't come naturally.

Oh, glad you brought this up.

Can we talk about Lance Armstrong for a minute? Um.......he dates gorgeous, successful blondes (three that were serious: Sheryl Crow, Tori Burch (OUTSTANDING fashion designer, quite successful, beautiful, wealthy etc.) and now Goldie Hawn's daughter. ALL of these women come and have extended stays with him and his three kids. So, the kids form attachments to all these women and then.........GONE. :shakinghead: I think it's heinous!

okay but who really cares. More important things like - can I get a smiley on my POST? I am gonna try this.

Someone came on a little bit ago and revived the GlutenEase thread... but I'm just too tired. :rolleyes: I'm gonna go take a shower. :lol:

You might want to dig around the yard just in case Weezee buried some negotiable securities, matured bonds or Krugerrands.

Yeah I saw that :( . . ...another "the very 1st time I took the stuff, I happened to accidentally eat some gluten" story. <_<

I liked the follow sentence of "I would do something Rachel told me before I'd believe a doctor".

Um, Rachel, I have this pain in my left leg. Could you please diagnose me over the forum?

For Pete's sake...

On my computer, it's just an M C (My Controls) and N P (New Posts) vertically up the right side . . . like there's no room for the whole thing . . .click on the N P

I liked the follow sentence of "I would do something Rachel told me before I'd believe a doctor".

Um, Rachel, I have this pain in my left leg. Could you please diagnose me over the forum?

Glutenease:

What an interesting thread, I read up to page 10 and couldn't read anymore.

<<snip>>

ps...I am not a shill....just telling it like I see it.

For the new topic button, try reloading the current page. You may have something cached that isn't quite right.

Then, look at the big black "Celiac.com" banner.

Under that is "Gluten-Free Celiac Disease Forum....."

The next line has, from left to right:

My Controls

View New Posts

My Assistant

My Friends.....

Under that is this search window.

. . . and may I add that you did a wonderful job of staying neutral with your response!!! I don't think I could have. I also noticed that Unclezack was reading. He must get email notification when someone is posting to that thread.

Luuuurrrrrvvvvvvvvvvvvveeeeee that word . . . Snarky!!!

      I'd go with a vodka tonic, but that's just me😉

      That and my nutritionist also said that drinking cider is one of the worst drink choices for me, given that I have candida overgrowth.  She said the combination of the alcohol and sugar would be very likely to worsen my candida problem.  She suggested that if I drink, I go for clear vodka, either neat or with a splash of cranberry.   So in summary, I am giving ciders a rest.  Whether it's a gluten risk or sugars and yeast overgrowth, its just not worth it.

      While plain, pure tea leaves (black, green, or white) are naturally gluten-free, the issue often lies not with the tea itself but with other ingredients or processing. Many flavored teas use barley malt or other gluten-containing grains as a flavoring agent, which would be clearly listed on the ingredient label. Cross-contamination is another possibility, either in the facility where the tea is processed or, surprisingly, from the tea bag material itself—some tea bags are sealed with a wheat-based glue. Furthermore, it's important to consider that your reaction could be to other substances in tea, such as high levels of tannins, which can be hard on the stomach, or to natural histamines or other compounds that can cause a non-celiac immune response. The best way to investigate is to carefully read labels for hidden ingredients, try switching to a certified gluten-free tea brand that uses whole leaf or pyramid-style bags, and see if the reaction persists.

      This is a challenging and confusing situation. The combination of a positive EMA—which is a highly specific marker rarely yielding false positives—alongside strongly elevated TTG on two separate occasions, years apart, is profoundly suggestive of celiac disease, even in the absence of biopsy damage. This pattern strongly aligns with what is known as "potential celiac disease," where the immune system is clearly activated, but intestinal damage has not yet become visible under the microscope. Your concern about the long-term risk of continued gluten consumption is valid, especially given your family's experience with the consequences of delayed diagnosis. Since your daughter is now at an age where her buy-in is essential for a gluten-free lifestyle, obtaining a definitive answer is crucial for her long-term adherence and health. Given that she is asymptomatic yet serologically positive, a third biopsy now, after a proper 12-week challenge, offers the best chance to capture any microscopic damage that may have developed, providing the concrete evidence needed to justify the dietary change. This isn't about wanting her to have celiac; it's about wanting to prevent the insidious damage that can occur while waiting for symptoms to appear, and ultimately giving her the unambiguous "why" she needs to accept and commit to the necessary treatment. This article might be helpful. It breaks down each type of test, and what a positive results means in terms of the probability that you might have celiac disease. One test that always needs to be done is the IgA Levels/Deficiency Test (often called "Total IGA") because some people are naturally IGA deficient, and if this is the case, then certain blood tests for celiac disease might be false-negative, and other types of tests need to be done to make an accurate diagnosis. The article includes the "Mayo Clinic Protocol," which is the best overall protocol for results to be ~98% accurate.
