Ok, since no one responded to my previous post, I'll try a different approach: the photo I want to use for my avatar has uploaded easily as my "photo" but won't upload as my avatar, becausee it says it's too big, although it isn't. Is there a way to designate your photo as your avatar also? And if there isn't, perhaps there should be?

thanks, Megan

Megan, Did no one respond? Maybe because none of us know how to re- size or the magic incantation. Was hoping to find out myself.

Megan, Photos are allowed to be bigger in both dimension and file size, than Avatars.

It maybe the file size is too big.

If you don't know how to make it smaller, post it here and I'll make it smaller and post it back for you :)

Ditto for anybody else who needs help with it.

Thank you! Oddly, it now has come to be! My photo has become my avatar, as I wished. It just took a couple days to decide to co-operate, I guess :lol:

Ah I have a feeling that perhaps your browser had cached the old avatar. So it worked instantly but your browser was showing the other version that it help in memory.

Glad it worked anyway :D

This is a fairly common problem. When you upload a new avatar (or photo), the file name does not change, although other attributes do. Having an old, cached, version of an avatar (yours or another member's) is not unusual. Press F5 to refresh the page, and the problem will be resolved.

I don't have an F5 to press :( but now I know what it was-my faulty old memories :D

Thanks, guys!

      CT with contrast.

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      They may want to also eliminate other possible causes for your symptoms/issues and are doing additional tests.  Here is info about blood tests for celiac disease--if positive an endoscopy where biopsies of your intestinal villi are taken to confirm is the typical follow up.

      New labs are now very elevated

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      In the Europe the new protocol for making a celiac disease diagnosis in children is if their tTg-IgA (tissue transglutaminase IgA) levels are 10 times or above the positive level for celiac disease--and you are above that level. According to the latest research, if the blood test results are at certain high levels that range between 5-10 times the reference range for a positive celiac disease diagnosis, it may not be necessary to confirm the results using an endoscopy/biopsy: Blood Test Alone Can Diagnose Celiac Disease in Most Children and Adults TGA-IgA at or Above Five Times Normal Limit in Kids Indicates Celiac Disease in Nearly All Cases No More Biopsies to Diagnose Celiac Disease in Children! May I ask why you've had so many past tTg-IgA tests done, and many of them seem to have been done 3 times during short time intervals?

      Chances of being coeliac

      @JettaGirl, "Coeliac" is the British spelling of "celiac". Same disease.

      By JettaGirl · Posted

      This may sound ridiculous but is this supposed to say Celiacs? I looked up Coeliacs because you never know, there’s a lot of diseases related to a disease that they come up with similar names for. It’s probably meant to say Celiacs but I just wanted to confirm.

      I was told it was to see how much damage has been caused. But just told CT with contrast not any other name for it.
