Don't Need Help, Just A Question

I'm just curious about the difference in "Member" vs. "Advanced Community Member" in the info below our avatars. I thought mine used to say "Advanced", but now it just says "Member". Did I get demoted?

Hi Liz :D

I don't really know--but I would say that no, you didn't get demoted. :lol:

I know that the member title used to change with the number of posts a person had--when they reached a certain number, they advanced to the next level.

I was nosing around a little, and I see that all of us that used to be advanced members are now in the members group--I'd say it has something to do with the new version of the board.

Weird, on my last few posts, I am still an advanced community member--hmmmmmm :huh:

I don't know this for a "FACT" so please don't pumel me If I'm wrong here, but I believe it has to do with how often you post. If you post so many posts in a certain amount of time then you are moved up, but if you don't post for a day or so then I think you can be moved down. As far as I know it has to do with how many times you post in a certain period of time. I'm not sure if it's per day, week, or month, but it seems as though it has something to do with posts and time!!

If I'm wrong here I'm sure someone will clear it up for us!!

I see that now, Debbie and Electra. I always thought it was based on the number of posts--I wonder if that changed?

Scott--what's the story here? Curious minds need to know :D

Oooo yeah, I just noticed that.

You are an observant lot!!

I was just wondering why I couldn't see anyones avatar...took me a while to realise I had to log in :lol: !!

(why does that log in thing happen now and again?) :blink:

I think the group has always been "members", but some of you/us have "advanced community member" under the avatar. Those of you that have put your own label under the avatar now don't see that "advanced" part.

OMG--I think you're right! Never even thought of that. I still think the change is due to the "new" board. I've had something under my custom member title for some time now, and just recently have been changed to "member".

Yes, it is based on the number of posts. Some people have gone into their My Controls-->Edit Profile Information-->Custom member title and changed it. To know for sure what "level" member someone is just look at the graphic.

Take care,

Scott

      Two months. In extreme situations like this where it’s clearly a smoking gun? I’m in LA so went to a very big hospital for pcp and gi and nutritionist

      So far 3 months in - worsening symptoms. I have had the worst constipation in my life and I am primarily eating naturally gluten-free foods like potatoes, eggs, salad with homemade dressing, corn tortillas, etc. I hate gluten-free bread and pasta so I don't eat it. Occasionally I eat gluten-free almond flour crackers. As stated in the post, I don't have any vitamin deficiency. I was already tested.

      Talk to your  Talk to your provider about testing for vitamin and mineral deficiency.  celiac disease causes malabsorption and eventually malnutrition.  Especially vitamin D. Having the gallbladder removed seems to be a common step on the way to a Celiac Disease Diagnosis,  Gallbladder is a sympton of deficient Choline. Eggs and red meat are the primary source..Choline makes up a majority of the bile salts.  The bile gets thick, doesn't get enough into intestine to digest fats well.  Can eventually back up into gallbladder, cause gallstones.  Without bile, bowel movements can become hard. Try to avoid all processed foods while you are healing, The gluten-free foods are not fortified with vitamins and use various ingredients to mimic fat that bothers many Celiacs.  Choose vegatables with low omega 6.  Optimum omega 6 to omega 3 ratio is less than 3:1.  Wheat flour is 22:1.  Grass fed milk is 1:1.   Commercial Dairies milk is 5:1.  They feed wheat, rye and barley Gluten as part of the food mix.

      Your DGP-G is also high. The thing to do now would be to trial the gluten-free diet for a few months to see if there is improvement in symptoms.
