I feel slightly invisible in this forum; whenever I go and view a post, then look to see how many "views" there have been of that post, it never increments. In other words, the fact that I looked at it apparently doesn't count. Is that because I'm new, or is it something else?

I believe views are updated periodically, not in real-time.

The weekends around here are always slow. Sometimes it takes some time for someone to address your post.

Thanks for the explanation. You're right; I went back and looked at one of the posts I had viewed, and sure enough, now it's showing 20 views instead of 0.

Thanks Momma Goose.

That's not what I was concerned about. Althought I would LOVE for someone to answer my questions (in my other post in the Pre-Diagnosis and Testing section), I wasn't asking about why no one had done so thus far. I just wondered about the counters for "views" of the posts, and why I was able to view several different posts without apparently having any effect on their view counters.

As to someone replying to my other post, I do hope that will happen, but I realize that the right person has to look at it first. I assume that if no one has answered, maybe it's just that those who have viewed it really don't know the answers.

Rissa,

I saw your original post, but did not reply because I don't know anything about interaction between celiac disease and steroids in general, much less your specific question about prednisone.

Weekends are quiet here. Maybe most members visit the board while at work. :ph34r: We own our business, so company time and personal time are the same thing for us. :lol:

I'm sure someone who knows will reply.

As noted, the "views" statistic is updated periodically and, as a result, is often presented as less than the actual count.

Welcome to the board.

Thanks for the reply!

That must be nice! Unfortunately my personal time for surfing the web is the weekend...my employers would frown on doing it during working hours! :lol:

Although lunchtime is always a possibility.....

      Hello everyone. I am Elena and am 38 years old. I suspect I have a gluten intolerance even if my celiac panel is ok. I have the following symptoms : facial flushing, Red dots not bumps în face, bloating abdominal distension, hair loss, depression anxiety even with meds and even bipolar. Fatigue extreme to the point of not being able to work. All of these after I eat gluten. Could I have non celiac gluten sensitivity? Thanks anyone else with these symptoms?

      Hi Everyone,  I do appreciate your replies to my original post.   Here is where I am now in this journey.  I am currently seeing a Naturopath.  One thing I did not post before is that I take Esomeprazole for GERD.  My Naturopath believes that the decrease in the gastric acid has allowed the yeast to grow.    She has put me on some digestive enzymes.  She also put me on Zinc, Selenium, B 12, as she felt that I was not absorbing my vitamins. I am about 5 weeks into this treatment, and I am feeling better. I did not have any trouble taking the Fluconazole.

      I'm sure it's chemically perfect. Most of them taste lousy!

      Hi @JulieRe.  I just found your post.  It seems that I am also experiencing thrush, and my doctor believes that I have fungal overgrowth in my gut, which is most likely candida.  I'm seeing my GI doctor next week, so I'm hoping she can diagnose and confirm this and then give me an antifungal treatment.  In the meantime, I have been working with a functional medicine doctor, doing a candida cleanse and taking vitamins. It's already helping to make me feel better (with some ups and downs, of course), so I do think the yeast is definitely a problem for me on top of my celiac disease and I'm hoping my GI doctor can look into this a bit further.  So, how about you?  Did the candida come back, or is it still gone following your fluconazole treatment?  Also, was it awful to take fluconazole?  I understand that taking an antifungal can cause a reaction that sometimes makes people feel sick while they're taking it.  I hope you're doing better still !

      I'm so sorry you're going through this—the "gluten challenge" is notoriously brutal, and it's awful to deliberately make yourself sick when you've already found the answer. For the joint pain, many people find that over-the-counter anti-inflammatories like ibuprofen can help take the edge off, and using heating pads or warm baths can provide some direct relief for the aches. For the digestive misery, stick to simple, easy-to-digest foods (like plain rice, bananas, and bone broth) and drink plenty of water and electrolytes to stay hydrated. It feels like the longest month ever, but you are doing the right thing to get a clear diagnosis, which can be crucial for your long-term health and getting the proper care. Hang in there; you can get through this! This article, and the comments below it, may be helpful:
