Betty, if you want it to show up with your posts, you need to make it your avatar. Go to 'My Controls', then to 'avatar settings', choose it again as your avatar, click on 'update avatar' .

You can have two different pictures for your avatar and your personal photo. I keep my personal photo constant, but change my avatar periodically.

If you want to have your own caption under your avatar, go to 'update profile information', and replace whatever it says under 'custom member title' with what you want to say. Don't forget to click on 'amend my profile'.

Ursa, When I click on *My Controls" I don't see *update* profile information, but do see *edit* profile information. When I click on that, there is nothing that says *custom member title*. Am I lookiing in the wrong place?

Guhlia Rising Star

Awww... Well, I'm glad I did something right today. It's been a heck of a day over this way too. Seriously though, you look great. I still can't remember what actress you look like though.

Valda, I think you have to have over 500 posts to have a custom member title.

ebrbetty Rising Star

thank you :unsure:

Lisa Mentor

Betty, your picture is lovely. It's nice to see who you are. I haven't gotten that brave yet. I'm working my way through the family. I am proud of my girls.

Pheobe Buffay, you are the best quaft (female dog) on the forum. Laying on your back with those inviting eyes...ohhhhh what a tease. :P

Edit: I put in the B-word (female dog) and it changed to "jerk".......I don't know what a "B" and a jerk have in common. :rolleyes:

ebrbetty Rising Star

thank you..your girls are so pretty, next up is you!

Valda, it's true, you have to have 500 posts to be able to have a custom title. So, keep posting, and soon you can have it say whatever you want.

Betty, I'd never have guessed you're 45, you appear to be 'well preserved' anyway. ;)

      It would be interesting to see if you were tested again for blood antibodies after abandoning the gluten free diet for several weeks to a few months what the results would be. Don't misunderstand me. I'm not necessarily suggesting you do this but it is an option to think about. I guess I'm saying there is a question in my mind as to whether you actually ever had celiac disease. As I said above, the blood antibody testing can yield false positives. And it is also true that celiac-like symptoms can be produced by other medical conditions.

      Thank you for the reply In the early 2000's I did not have the endoscopy nor the biopsy I do not have those initial records I have only consulted a GI drs in the USA

      Welcome to the forum, @numike! We sometimes get reports like yours from community members who believe their celiac disease has "gone away." We think there can sometimes be cases of remission but not long term healing and that continued consumption of gluten will eventually result in a relapse. This is the state of our knowledge at this point but there is still a lot we don't know and celiac disease continues to surprise us with new findings on a frequent basis. So, we would not advise you to abandon a strict gluten-free diet. Perhaps you can draw consolation from the fact that at the present time you seem to be able to consume gluten without consequences when in situations where you do not have the option to eat gluten-free. But I would advise you to not generalize your recent experience such that you throw caution to the wind. But I want to go back to what you said about being diagnosed by blood test in the early 2000's. Did you not also have that confirmed with an endoscopy and biopsy of the small bowel lining? Normally, a celiac disease diagnosis is not concluded based on a blood test alone because there can be false positives. What kind of doctor did this testing? Was it done in the U.S. or overseas? In the last few years, it has become common in the U.K. to grant a celiac diagnosis from blood testing alone if the antibody test scores are 10x normal or greater. But that practice has not caught on in the U.S. yet and was not in place internationally in the early 2000's. Do you have a record of the tests that were done, the scores and also the reference ranges for negative vs. positive for the tests?

      Check out this celiac story  I was diagnosed early 2000s with the blood test  since then I have for the most part maintained a gluten-free diet  Recently (August 2025) I drove from Southern Illinois to Lake Erie Ohio On the drive back I was extremely hungry and I had a coupon at a hamburger chain and I stopped and forgot to request gluten-free bun etc and quickly consumed two hamburgers. I promptly ate both of them and had absolutely no problem since then I've been eating plenty of gluten  Is my celiac gone?  Insert: No, celiac disease cannot just end because there is no cure for it; however, a strict, lifelong gluten-free diet allows the small intestine to heal and symptoms to go away. To manage the condition effectively, you must strictly avoid all sources of gluten, including wheat, barley, and rye, which are common in the American diet. Sticking to the diet can lead to significant symptom improvement and intestinal healing, but it requires ongoing commitment and monitoring with a healthcare professional  Regarding medical test I had My stools analyzed Giardia Ag Cryptosporidium Ag and they came back negative  I had the lactulose test and it came back high so I'm on two weeks of heavy antibiotics That still has not stopped me from eating gluten. Here's what I think is going on and I hope to have your opinion regarding it  Since I've been gluten-free for so long my intestinal tract has repaired itself consequently anything I eat with gluten now just bounces right off with no damage to my gut  however  when I asked AI what was going on the reply was celiac has not gone away and  if I continue to eat gluten I'm going to have problems   I look forward to your sage advice as to what the heck is going on with me Thank you for reading Mike 09112025

      I agree, and generally it means that it isn't working in a high enough percentage of participants to continue pursuing it.
