I've changed it repeatedly with different pictures but no go. Help! I'm very tired of the 4th of July arrangement.

It looks like you were successful--I always need to refresh my screen (sometimes twice) when I change avatars in order for the new one to show up. :)

It does? I'm still seeing Fourth of July.

I see a brass container of flowers. Did you refresh?

Did you refresh?

If you're as computer challenged as I am was :ph34r: , that means push the F5 button on your keyboard. :rolleyes:

I am computer challenged but I rebooted this morning and I just went in and refreshed twice. I'm still seeing patriotic flowers. Are you seeing that or the watering can arrangement?

I'm SO confused....

I see a metallic watering can full of flowers with the spout facing left.

That's what it should be! How come I'm still seeing red, white and blue except on the My Controls page? I've always had it change for me before.

Wow, nobody knows why I can only see my old avatar but you all see my new one?

Gosh, you still can't see it? I'm at a loss, I admit I'm not the most computer-savvy person. I thought for sure you'd be able to see it by now.

I hope someone can shed some light on this for you :)

Like I said, Twilight Zone!!

This is strange. Refreshing the page should cause the browser to refetch the images, even if it has one in the cache that appears to be current. You might try this: clear the cache completely, exit your browser completely (all windows), and start a new browser session. This will absolutely force a new fetch from the source on this board:

      What about digestive enzymes that I hear help? I take align 5x probiotics daily.

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

      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 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.

      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.
