Okay I have used forums before but never have had trouble instantly viewing the post that I post. Why does it not appear under the specialized section I am writing to? I see it under "new posts" but not when I open the specific sections such as "parents/family with children" etc.... and what does 'Pinned" mean? Sorry for what I expect to be some simple solutions to me problems.......

Hi Ryan, we use pinning as a way of flagging posts that have been read and approved by a moderator (meaning they aren't spam and don't contain offensive material). I don't have a good answer for your other question but I'm sure one of my fellow moderators can explain. Take care and welcome aboard.

When you post a new topic, it goes to the last page of the forum that you have posted it in. At that point, you can find it there or on the new post page.

After a moderator reads and approves it, they will "pin" it in the appropriate fourm. (sometimes they decide that it is better suited to another forum, and will move it there). It will then appear on the first page of that forum.

Hope that helps.

thank you that helps. I guess it would be nice if it does get moved. Only becuase this is such a big site, I automatically look for the forum topic I intended to post to and if I do not see my post there I assume it is not accepted. Just a suggestion...Thank you for the informative replies! Ryan

I understand your concern--quick tip: if you return to the forum where you posted your topic and do not see it, go to the last page of that forum and any posts that have been moved will be marked as such. All you need to do is click on the topic and it will bring you to where it was moved.

Or you can go to your personal profile page and click on "Topics" or "Posts" to find your most recent postings. It's your current personal history.

Hi Ryan,

Or another option is too click on the "My Assistant" link on the top right hand side of the forum. That opens a little window with options. Then click on my last 10 posts link. Then you click on the Post Preview link number at the bottom of each section for the ten posts to go to that post. If you have Firefox browser you can right click the post number and open it in a new tab, so the assistant stays open.

Just another way to do it...

      Hi Ya All, Dr. just. Told me I have one celiac marker. I have been taking multiple blood test for thin Dr for years. Why couldn’t he have mentioned this! Anyway my functional med practitioner

      By trents · Posted

      Hello, Jeff and yes, PTL! The word "marker" is typically used in connection with gene testing but gene testing is not usually where testing for celiac disease starts. It usually starts with blood work looking for antibodies that are more or less specific to celiac disease. The most popular antibody test ordered by doctors is the tTG-IGA test but there are others. Here is an overview: Do you have access to your medical record/test results online? What is your next step with this? I assume you are not yet eating gluten free.

      Is tTG 9 normal after 4 months gluten-free?

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      @lizzie42, I have dermatitis herpetiformis outbreaks when I am exposed to foods high in iodine.  Iodine can cause dermatitis herpetiformis to flair up badly.  So I avoid high iodine foods like dairy products, crustaceans (shrimp, crab, lobster, shellfish), Eggs, and iodized table salt.  Spinach,  potatoes, kale, and kelp are high in iodine, too. The antibodies that cause dermatitis herpetiformis are tTg 3 IgA.  The tests for Celiac Disease measure tTg 2 IgA antibodies.  The dermatitis herpetiformis tTg3 antibodies can hang around for two years or more and become more active when exposed to iodine without having gluten present.  Dermatitis Herpetiformis is pressure sensitive and are apt to form under tight clothing like belts, bras and underwear, seams on tight clothing, etc.   I find tallow balm (Vintage Traditions is my favorite gluten free brand) eases the itching and helps heal the blisters without scaring.  Niacin Vitamin B 3 helps the body rid itself of the dermatitis herpetiformis antibodies.  Niacin is one of eight essential B vitamins which should all be supplemented together because they all work together in concert.  Niacin is instrumental in the body's production of Serotonin, the feel good neurotransmitter.  The body turns Niacin into Tryptophan, which is used to make Serotonin.  So when I have dermatitis herpetiformis flairs, I also take Tryptophan at bedtime, and Niacin and a B Complex during the day.   Hope this helps!  I know how miserable dermatitis herpetiformis can be.

      How to work through food paranoia

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      The following two lists are very helpful for anyone who is gluten sensitive and needs to avoid gluten when shopping. It's very important to learn to read labels and understand sources of hidden gluten, and to know some general information about product labelling--for example in the USA if wheat is a possible allergen it must be declared on a product's ingredient label like this: Allergens: Wheat.

      hi Ya Trent, I really like my gastroenterologist; he mentioned it casually. maybe he thought I knew it. These tele appointments are good for getting to the point. I think he used the marker word. I will ask. PTL.

      @MegRCxx, it is common for people with celiac disease to have other food intolerances as well. Most common offenders are oats (even gluten free oats) and dairy. Soy, eggs and corn are less common but not rare. So, factor into your consideration.
