Replying To A Poll

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?

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

Thanks

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?

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.

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.

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.

      My only proof

      By AlwaysLearning · Posted

      We feel your pain. It took me 20+ years of regularly going to doctors desperate for answers only to be told there was nothing wrong with me … when I was 20 pounds underweight, suffering from severe nutritional deficiencies, and in a great deal of pain. I had to figure it out for myself. If you're in the U.S., not having an official diagnosis does mean you can't claim a tax deduction for the extra expense of gluten-free foods. But it can also be a good thing. Pre-existing conditions might be a reason why a health insurance company might reject your application or charge you more money. No official diagnosis means you don't have a pre-existing condition. I really hope you don't live in the U.S. and don't have these challenges. Do you need an official diagnosis for a specific reason? Else, I wouldn't worry about it. As long as you're diligent in remaining gluten free, your body should be healing as much as possible so there isn't much else you could do anyway. And there are plenty of us out here who never got that official diagnosis because we couldn't eat enough gluten to get tested. Now that the IL-2 test is available, I suppose I could take it, but I don't feel the need. Someone else not believing me really isn't my problem as long as I can stay in control of my own food.

      Gluten related ??

      By AlwaysLearning · Posted

      If you're just starting out in being gluten free, I would expect it to take months before you learned enough about hidden sources of gluten before you stopped making major mistakes. Ice cream? Not safe unless they say it is gluten free. Spaghetti sauce? Not safe unless is says gluten-free. Natural ingredients? Who knows what's in there. You pretty much need to cook with whole ingredients yourself to avoid it completely. Most gluten-free products should be safe, but while you're in the hypersensitive phase right after going gluten free, you may notice that when something like a microwave meal seems to not be gluten-free … then you find out that it is produced in a shared facility where it can become contaminated. My reactions were much-more severe after going gluten free. The analogy that I use is that you had a whole army of soldiers waiting for some gluten to attack, and now that you took away their target, when the stragglers from the gluten army accidentally wander onto the battlefield, you still have your entire army going out and attacking them. Expect it to take two years before all of the training facilities that were producing your soldiers have fallen into disrepair and are no longer producing soldiers. But that is two years after you stop accidentally glutening yourself. Every time you do eat gluten, another training facility can be built and more soldiers will be waiting to attack. Good luck figuring things out.

      KAN-101 Treatment for Coeliac Disease

      By Russ H · Posted

      This treatment looks promising. Its aim is to provoke immune tolerance of gluten, possibly curing the disease. It passed the phase 2 trial with flying colours, and I came across a post on Reddit by one of the study volunteers. Apparently, the results were good enough that the company is applying for fast track approval.  Anokion Announces Positive Symptom Data from its Phase 2 Trial Evaluating KAN-101 for the Treatment of Celiac Disease https://www.reddit.com/r/Celiac/comments/1krx2wh/kan_101_trial_put_on_hold/
