I posted my message, and it went to "View new Post"..

After others posted, my message(s) disapeared..

Where do they go from there? I checked the board and couldn't find them anywhere. Anybody know the answer?

Hi Grissomz,

The view new post feature simply shows all the posts that are new and have not been read (or were just recently read) by you. When I click on "view new posts" I see a differents selection of posts than another member because the view new posts feature is customized to each member. When you log on and click on view new posts, you just get all the posts that were created while you were gone. Thus, if one member waited numerous days, then signed in, they might have 3 pages of new posts, whereas if I was on the board in the morning, then signed on a few hours later, I might have only two or three new posts. So, when your post no longer shows up in new posts for you, it is still going to be in another member's new posts. I hope I made sense there :lol: .

Now, when your post vanishes from view new posts, you can see it in two ways. On the main page of the forum if you scroll down there's an option: "today's active topics". Any post made in the past 24 hours will show up there if you click it. Additionally, once you've clicked that, you can change the settings to see every post in the past two days, past week, past month, etc.

Finally, you can click on the section of the board you posted in. Your post will not always be in the same spot, though, because moderators have the option to move posts to a more suitable section. I, for example, will move this post from the coping section to the technical help section. If you click on the right section, though, you cans see all the posts in it and yours should be towards the front within a couple hours. Initially, your post will be on one of the last few pages, until a moderator "pins" it, thus affirming that it's a relevant topic (and not some person spamming the boards, for example) and that it's in the right section. This moves your post to the first page of that section.

Hope this helps and welcome!

      Hypothetical question about antibodies

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      That’s a really insightful observation about antibody testing and the gluten challenge! You’re absolutely right that antibody levels can remain elevated for months or even years after going gluten-free, especially if there’s ongoing cross-contamination or occasional slip-ups. The immune system doesn’t reset overnight—it can take time for antibodies like tTG-IgA to normalize, which is why many doctors recommend waiting at least 6–12 months of strict gluten-free eating before retesting. For someone who’s been gluten-free for less than two years or hasn’t been meticulous about avoiding cross-contact, there’s absolutely a chance they’d still test positive, since even small amounts of gluten can keep antibodies elevated. This is partly why the gluten challenge (where you eat gluten before testing) exists—it’s designed to provoke a measurable immune response in people who’ve been gluten-free long enough for antibodies to drop. But you raise a great point: the challenge isn’t perfect, and false negatives can happen if the timing or amount of gluten isn’t sufficient to trigger a strong antibody response. This is why diagnosis often combines antibody tests with other tools like genetic testing or endoscopy. Your question highlights just how nuanced celiac testing can be! For people with celiac disease hidden gluten in their diets is the main cause of elevated Tissue Transglutaminase IgA Antibodies (tTG-IgA), but there are other conditions, including cow's milk/casein intolerance, that can also cause this, and here is an article about the other possible causes:

      Thank you for your response! I have considered starting a food diary in the past, I suppose this is as good a time as any to start.

      I don't have health insurance so I have never had any testing done. I always thought if I stay away from gluten Ill be fine but I suppose that isn't enough anymore. I will look into getting an allergy test. Thank you for your input!

      Celiac Brand for Indian grocery

      By trents · Posted

      I remember reading an article summarizing testing done by Gluten Free Watchdog on several brands of dried lentils. They were all heavily cross contaminated with wheat and the commentary was to the effect that dried lentils in general were the most heavily cross contaminated product category in their testing data base. So, I would definitely not use any dried lentil product that was not tested to be Gluten Free (<20ppm of gluten) or Certified Gluten Free (<10ppm of gluten).

      While spices, lentils, beans and chickpeas are naturally gluten-free, the main concern with any brand is cross-contamination during processing and packaging. Since Suraj doesn't appear to certify their products as gluten-free or use dedicated gluten-free facilities, there is some risk of trace gluten exposure, especially with their corn flour which could be milled on shared equipment with gluten-containing grains. For absolute safety, I'd recommend looking for brands that are certified gluten-free by organizations like GFCO - good options include McCormick for spices, TruRoots or Bob's Red Mill for lentils and beans, and Anthony's for corn flour. That said, if you need to use Suraj products, be sure to carefully check labels for any wheat warnings, thoroughly rinse lentils and beans before cooking, and consider contacting the manufacturer directly to ask about their gluten testing protocols. Many in our community have found that investing in certified gluten-free brands gives them greater peace of mind and helps avoid accidental gluten exposure, especially for higher-risk items like flours.
