Replying To A Poll

Recommended Posts

I would like to respond to the "Getting to know everyone" poll but feel like there must be something that I don't know. When I hit the respond button, I get the usual blank screen for a reply. Wouldn't there be a reply box with the list of questions in the poll, so that we can fill in the blanks? After fruitless attempts to figure this out, I gave up and wrote down all the questions so that I could type them in the blank response box and respond like the others. I got about halfway done with my post and ran out of room. So what's the secret?

What you can do is copy and paste one with questions and delete their answer and put yours...thats what I did.

Guest Viola

Yup ... copy and paste is the way to go I think :P

Please try again, we do love to learn about everyone :D

Ok, this is another question for the computer challanged - copy and paste someone else's answers and then what?

Thanks

Guest Viola

Then delete their answers and add your own in the place you deleted. Which will leave you with the question and your answer :)

Copy the information from the post. Then paste it into your post. Then type in your answers underneath each question. Or type all the answers in and then delete the original question...does that make sense?

The very first post on that thread lists the questions with no answers. Do your copy and paste from that thread.

OK, my question: I voted in the "what brand do you use" poll, and wanted to post a reply, but was not able. Instead of the reply button, there was a button that said the poll was closed. I like the replies to the polls, the explanations are very interesting. Why couldn't I do that with this one?

Guest Viola

Yes, I want to know about that as well. I wanted to reply to that poll too :blink:

That one is a bit confusing for sure :huh:

It's a difficult poll for me because the products are apples and oranges - I can't say that I like one more than any others because they are for different stuff. I like Pamelas for the cookies and I like Tinkyada pasta - I can't choose between them.

When you set up a poll though you can choose to allow people to respond or not, and I think that the person who set up this poll did that, maybe unintentionally. I don't know if that can be changed.

Yeah, it is a difficult poll. I chose the brand that had my favorite gluten-free product because many of them had a large selection of products I liked.

You can't reply to that one because the creator of the poll made it so you can only vote, but cannot reply to the thread. That's one of the options you have when creating a poll.

plantime Contributor

What a bummer! A lot of information is shared in the replies to a poll! I chose "other", since I use Mrs. Leeper's and Bob's Red Mill, and neither of them were listed.

celiac3270 Collaborator

Yeah. The other problem with that type of poll is that it quickly moves to the back without any replies to keep it on the front page. I'll make a new one with the same sort of thing, though.

plantime Contributor

Thank you! I found it and voted on it!

      Not necessarily. The "Gluten Free" label means not more than 20ppm of gluten in the product which is often not enough for super sensitive celiacs. You would need to be looking for "Certified Gluten Free" (GFCO endorsed) which means no more than 10ppm of gluten. Having said that, "Gluten Free" doesn't mean that there will necessarily be more gluten than "Certified Gluten" in any given batch run. It just means there could be.

      I think it is wise to seek a second opinion from a GI doc and to go on a gluten free diet in the meantime. The GI doc may look at all the evidence, including the biopsy report, and conclude you don't need anything else to reach a dx of celiac disease and so, there would be no need for a gluten challenge. But if the GI doc does want to do more testing, you can worry about the gluten challenge at that time. But between now and the time of the appointment, if your symptoms improve on a gluten free diet, that is more evidence. Just keep in mind that if a gluten challenge is called for, the bare minimum challenge length is two weeks of the daily consumption of at least 10g of gluten, which is about the amount found in 4-6 slices of wheat bread. But, I would count on giving it four weeks to be sure.

      Are Bobresmill gluten free oats ok for sensitive celiacs?
    • jenniber
      thank you both for the insights. i agree, im going to back off on dairy and try sucraid. thanks for the tip about protein powder, i will look for whey protein powder/drinks!   i don’t understand why my doctor refused to order it either. so i’ve decided i’m not going to her again, and i’m going to get a second opinion with a GI recommended to me by someone with celiac. unfortunately my first appointment isn’t until February 17th. do you think i should go gluten free now or wait until after i meet with the new doctor? i’m torn about what i should do, i dont know if she is going to want to repeat the endoscopy, and i know ill have to be eating gluten to have a positive biopsy. i could always do the gluten challenge on the other hand if she does want to repeat the biopsy.    thanks again, i appreciate the support here. i’ve learned a lot from these boards. i dont know anyone in real life with celiac.

      Let me suggest an adjustment to your terminology. "Celiac disease" and "gluten intolerance" are the same. The other gluten disorder you refer to is NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity) which is often referred to as being "gluten sensitive". Having said that, the reality is there is still much inconsistency in how people use these terms. Since celiac disease does damage to the small bowel lining it often results in nutritional deficiencies such as anemia. NCGS does not damage the small bowel lining so your history of anemia may suggest you have celiac disease as opposed to NCGS. But either way, a gluten-free diet is in order. NCGS can cause bodily damage in other ways, particularly to neurological systems.
