When I open the gluten free forum and click on view new posts, it tells me that my last visit was on 10/10 and that there are 19 new pages.

In looking at the pages I know that I have seen most of them before, and some of the posts I have responded to.

What's going on?

Is it accurate that you've been here last on the 10th? Even if you have seen the posts themselves before, are you sure there aren't any new replies? Because every time there is a reply, it is viewed as a new post, because you haven't seen the new reply.

Mind you, I have had malfunctions, and there would be posts I had definitely seen in the 'view new posts' list. Even after I clicked on the 'mark all posts as read' link, I sometimes get ones back on that I had seen.

It's been happening to me too. My "last visit" date has been stuck since about the 10th also.

Scott put an upgrade on the board software on Friday the 12th. Since then, there have been problems with this function, mostly things not showing as unread. :(

Another update was applied a couple of days ago, but a side effect seems to be that many threads that you have read part of are now showing up as completely new. It will take some time for the dust to settle, but as you view each thread the information for it will become correct (that's my belief).

If you clear your cache and delete all cookies set by this board (there is a button to delete the cookies on the home page, just above the statistics section) that may help. Or not. :o In the world of computers, glitches happen--I spent 30 years as a professional techie. <_<

Peter,

I deleted my cookies as you instructed--and now I have 18 pages and it still says my last visit was the 12th. :o

(After I deleted them, I had to sign back in...)

Oh, well, I thought it might help.

Yes, if you delete the cookies set by the board, you will sign yourself out--your sign-in status is kept in a cookie.

The unread status is not just kept in cookies--I use more than one computer to access the board, and until the recent problem, the history of what I had read was common to all of them, meaning it was kept on Scott's server, not in cookies on the individual computers.

It sounds that there may still be a problem with the board software.

I am not seeing a huge list of "new posts" in that menu, but I am still seeing some cases where when I click the button for unread posts it takes me to the first post in the thread. :(

ETA: It still thinks my last visit was October 11th. Not quite right, is it?

Ursa, Thanks for replying. I'm here just about every day. Most of the posts do not have any new replies.

To everyone else who is having problems -

Thanks for letting me know that I'm not the only one. I was beginning to wonder if I was going crazy.

I appreciate the ones who will be filling Scott in.

Cindy

Just for the record, everything is fine with me. I don't understand why some have issues and others not?

I still don't have the view last unread buttons, and I have 19 pages of "new" topics as well. Seems like Momma Lisa Goose is getting special treatment, she's the only one who's back to normal. :D

Well, I have the same problem--pages and pages of "new posts" PLUS--it keeps logging me out--THAT I HATE! I will hit reply and when it is going from the thread to reply, it logs me out, or sometimes, just going from one thread to another, I get logged out, it's veru aggravating. Nearly everytime I come into the forum I have to sign in and YES, I do have the box checked that states I want to stay logged in, it rarely works. :angry:

:rolleyes: I just try to ignore it all! When it signs me out too many times, I just leave! <_<

I am sure that Scott would like to know about these inconsistencies.

I am still seeing cases where I click on the button for last unread and it takes me to the first post in the thread, even though I have read that post, and others in the same thread. I don't think this is a cookie problem. Before the software change, the board remembered what I had read (and not read) even if I moved to another machine (we have three, although I typically only use two of them). I am currently using the notebook out on the patio; I was last on prior to this on the server upstairs. When I click on "View New Posts" I am getting the right list of topics, but in a few cases when I click on the button I still get taken to the first post.

I'm out of ideas to explain this. I know that it is not a problem with cookies, but beyond that, I am lost.

oh oh oh..... That is what I am getting sporatically--- Clicking on "last unread" button and it will take me to the first post of the thread (and I have already read that and several after that).

Same as Peter.

I still don't have the "view last unread" buttons (on the view new posts page, anyway).

When I got in just now, my last vist was TODAY!!! And I only had 3 pages of new posts to look at. Thanks for getting that cleared up.

I did notice when I clicked on view new posts that it only showed me the new posts for today. I did have the choice of viewing the past week (and farther back).

If I do have the view last unread...I can't find it.

      Draft gluten-free ciders… can they be trusted ?

      By Rejoicephd · Posted

      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.

      Tea Bags and Gluten

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      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.

      Inconclusive results

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      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.

      Medication

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Welcome to the community! Generally, for a gluten challenge before celiac disease blood tests, Tylenol (acetaminophen) is considered safe and should not interfere with your antibody results. The medications you typically need to avoid are those like ibuprofen (Advil, Motrin) or naproxen (Aleve) that can cause intestinal irritation, which could potentially complicate the interpretation of an endoscopy if you were to have one. However, it is absolutely crucial that you confirm this with either your gastroenterologist or your surgeon before your procedure. They know the specifics of your case and can give you the definitive green light, ensuring your surgery is comfortable and your celiac testing remains accurate. Best of luck with your surgery tomorrow
