Gluten Free Forum Will Freeze

For the three weeks now I have been having trouble with this forum. When I receive the e-mails from celiac.com, and press at the link to see posts, my internet explorer will freeze. It's like this with every other e-mail. Some are ok, but others not.

Also when I'm trying to replay to posts the same thing will happen. I don't know why.

When I work on other things, or google something everything is ok.

What is wrong?

Tough to say. There are potentially many possible reasons. When it happens as you try to reply, does it freeze while you are typing, or only when you click the button to get the reply form? Have you tried a different browser? Have you checked to make sure your browser has all applicable patches and updates?

Depends what browser you're using, sometimes when a script is enabled (like Java) used to display adds or video images it can slow your computer down.

Best to change browsers to Firefox noscript, you can allow manually script from sites that are safe.

Hi!

It will happen when I'm in my inbox trying to check the post that was send to my e-mail address. I will klick on the link associated with the post, and my Internet Explorer will come on, but will freeze imediately. I can't even close the explorer afterwards. When I go to celiac. com, and try to reply to posts everything is ok. From my inbox isn't.

Three times it happened when I finished typing, and clicked the button Proceed, or Add Reply. Is this some virus issue?

no, it sounds like Internet Exploder.

Wow, I didn't know anyone was still trying to make that work. Is your Exploder updated with the latest version that will work on your computer ?

Try the firefox browser.

Try the firefox browser.

Different browsers have different characteristics. Exploder uses a lot of memory, and is prone to unexpected freezes. It is the one I usually use to access this site since there are some things I need that don't work in FireFox. I have recently begun using Google Chrome for some things, and it has a different feel, but seems to be more efficient. I once used Netscape, but abandoned it when I discovered FireFox.

As said, IE is my normal brower to access this site, and is curently my default browser (it is the one that will launch if I click on a link In an email). I have not seen the situation tht you describe.

I use Safari but still get the spinning rainbow at times (I'm guessing that's the equivalent to freezing). Then I switch to Firefox or restart my computer. Frequently I lose what I've written when i try to preview it or if I want to go to another page to copy something to add (like an emoticon). I hide the window of the page I'm typing (yellow button in the top left corner of Safari) and that seems to help. It can be frustrating but this forum is worth all of the frustration in the world. It's been a lifesaver for me!!

      By Grahamsnaturalworld · Posted

      GliadinX/Tolerase G

      By ShariW · Posted

      I recently traveled to Spain and Portugal. I was with a tour group, they knew I needed to be gluten-free and made sure the kitchens preparing the group meals were aware. But just in case, I took Gliadin-X with me and took it for every evening meal - and most other meals. The one time I got glutened was from lunch early in the trip - had to be from cross-contamination. I had not taken Gliadin-X before that meal, which made for a pretty miserable day. Learned my lesson... 😞

      Diagnosis confusion

      By Hummer01 · Posted

      Hi trents, thanks for the response.  The 2nd opinion doctor said that if my CRP is still elevated at that time, he would advise me to look at Crohns/UC or another autoimmune issue. The colonoscopy I had this year seemed to rule those 2 out for now so he still believed celiac may explain it. No previous doctors have suggested any explanation for it even after calling to tell me it was a concerning result.  I guess it feels tough knowing I have positive blood testing, permissive genetics, and visible duodenum changes... and somehow it's NCGS instead of celiac. I'm still surprised the biopsies came back negative when the doctor was so sure they would be positive.

      Diagnosis confusion

      By trents · Posted

      "He also said that my CRP should return to a normal level at this time if the culprit was inflammation in the small intestine due to celiac." But with if the elevated CRP levels are caused by some other inflammatory process going on in your body? "She also said that my positive EMA isn't valuable because it has "a high false positive rate." Totally wrong! This is a highly accurate test for celiac disease, that requires specialized expertise to perform and interpret, and it is more expensive than other blood tests. It is generally used as a last test to confirm celiac disease after a positive tTG-IgA test. The sensitivity of a test refers to its ability to correctly identify individuals with the condition. For the EMA-IgA blood test, the sensitivity is generally very high, ranging from 90% to 98%. This means that the test can accurately detect celiac disease in a significant percentage of people who have the condition. The specificity of a test refers to its ability to correctly identify individuals without the condition. For the EMA-IgA blood test, the specificity is also high, typically around 95% to 100%. This indicates that the test can effectively rule out celiac disease in individuals who do not have the condition. Taken from the following article: Looking at the whole picture, I am wondering if you are transitioning from NCGS to celiac disease. Some experts in the gluten disorder field believe NCGS can be a precursor to celiac disease.

      Diagnosis confusion

      By Hummer01 · Posted

      Hi all, just wanted to post an update.  I have been gluten free for about 1.5 months now and seeing improvement already in the bathroom.  Recently I had a visit with another GI doctor for a 2nd opinion. He said that while my blood tests and scope are not a "slam dunk" for celiac, he believes it's more likely than not that I have it. His advice was to stay with a celiac-level gluten free diet (no CC) for 6-12 months then retest to make sure TTG-IGA is still negative. He also said that my CRP should return to a normal level at this time if the culprit was inflammation in the small intestine due to celiac.  Today I had a follow up with the original GI that performed the scope. She is confident it is NCGS and says I can still have gluten sometimes. When I asked about the visible duodenum damage, she said it is just "irritation" from gluten because the biopsies were negative. She also said that my positive EMA isn't valuable because it has "a high false positive rate."  I guess I'm having trouble reconciling the totally different advice from these 2 GI's. I want to believe the new doctor more at this point because what he said just makes more sense to me, and he gave an actionable timeline for possible next steps. Feeling lost and disappointed at this point and wanted to write it down here in case anyone has input. Thank you.
