Message Length And Emoticons

Hi, I tried to post a VERY long message in the Let's Talk about our Pets topic... :lol: and when I tried to post, I got an error message that I had used more emoticons than the board allowed... however it did not say HOW many I was allowed and how many I had. Anyway, after taking out a whole bunch of emoticons and trying each time to post, I finally thought perhaps my message was too long and broke it into two parts.... I didn't bother going back to insert my emoticons again, but I'm wondering for future, how long can a message be, and how many emoticons can we use?

Thanks! :D

Tammy, I had to giggle when I read your post. I can't imagine how long your post was that you had used more than 20 emoticons! :o:lol:

God bless,

:o Every time I tried to use emoticons :unsure: they wouldn't work. <_< I could only get them to go at the end of the page. :huh: Now I see that I have to put them in as I type ;) instead of after I finish my message! :lol: These are so cool! B) Thanks for the emoticons :D

I sometimes just use the shortcuts...so instead of clicking, where it might go to the end of your post, you can type a colon and a right paren. to make a smiley face or a colon and then a D to make a big grin or a colon and then a P to make the tongue sticking out face. If you click on "show all" you can see the shortcuts...I guess I've just used them a lot so I've inadvertently memorized them :lol:

      Are Gluten-Free Processed Foods Making You Sick? (+Video)

      Thank you! It’s very easy to make seedy crackers. They are much more nutritious than commercial gluten free bread,

      Thoughts? Non-endoscopic Celiac diagnosis in two year old

      thank you RMJ! That is very helpful advice. Good to know we aren’t crazy if we don’t do the endoscopy. We are going to try the gluten free and see how symptoms and levels improve. thank you Wheatwacked (love the username lol) that is also reassuring. Thankfully she has an amazing and experienced pediatrician. And yesss I forgot to mention the poo...

      Thoughts? Non-endoscopic Celiac diagnosis in two year old

      My son was diagnosed when he was weaned in 1976 after several endoscopies. Given your two year old's symptoms and your family history and your pediatrition advocating for the dx, I would agree. Whether an endoscopy is positive or negative is irrelevant. That may happen even with endoscopy. Pick your doctors with that in mind. In the end...

      So her tissue transglutaminase antibody is almost 4x the upper end of the normal range - likely a real result. The other things you can do besides an endoscopy would be: 1. Genetic testing. Unfortunately a large proportion of the population has genes permissive for celiac disease, but only a small proportion of those with the genes have it. With...

      here are the lab ranges. Normal ranges for tissue transglutaminase are: <15.0 Antibody not detected > or = 15.0 Antibody detected normal for endomysial antibody is < 1.5. So she is barely positive but still positive.

She has the weirdest poop issues.    How long did it take y'all to start seeing improvement in symptoms?

In the end you save the potential trauma of the endoscopy for your baby.   Mine also had really nasty poop.  His doctor started him on Nutramigen Infant because at the time it was the only product that was hypo allergenic and had complete nutrition. The improvement was immediate.

      So her tissue transglutaminase antibody is almost 4x the upper end of the normal range - likely a real result. The other things you can do besides an endoscopy would be: 1.  Genetic testing.  Unfortunately a large proportion of the population has genes permissive for celiac disease, but only a small proportion of those with the genes have it. With family history it is likely she has the genes. 2.  Try a gluten free diet and see if the symptoms go away AND the antibody levels return to normal. (This is what I would do). Endoscopies aren’t always accurate in patients as young as your daughter. Unfortunately, without an endoscopy, some doctor later in her life may question whether she really has celiac disease or not, and you’ll need to be a fierce mama bear to defend the diagnosis! Be sure you have a good written record of her current pediatrician’s diagnosis. Doing a gluten challenge for an endoscopy later in life could cause a very uncomfortable level of symptoms.   Having yourself, your husband and your son tested would be a great idea.

      Just diagnosed today

      By JoJo0611 · Posted

      I have been diagnosed with coeliacs disease today after endoscopy, bloods and CT scan. I have also been diagnosed with Mesenteric Panniculitis today. Both of which I believe are autoimmune diseases. I have been told I will need a dexa scan and a repeat CT scan in 6 months. I had not even heard of Mesenteric Panniculitis till today. I don’t know much about it? Has anyone else got both of these.
