So I want to change my avatar... but when I upload a new avatar, it just takes the size of my photo and makes my previous avatar that size.... Why?

Don't understand how it works but did you upload your pic, then at the bottom change or accept, then refresh ( ctrl f5)?

I see a target with your name in it.

I hit F5 to refresh, and I am seeing the bullseye with "Rowena" written on it.

When you upload a new avatar, the name of the file on the server does not change. Sometimes the browser has a cached copy of the file and uses it. Refresh (F5) causes the cached copy to be discarded, and a new one downloaded.

You might need to refresh your browser. (the little circle arrow in mozilla, not sure what the symbol is for e or chrome).

When I login in chrome it shows the old avatar.. can't get rid of it. I went out and logged in under explorer and the correct avatar is showing... go figure.

You may need to clear your cache. In Chrome, you do this by clicking the wrench icon in the upper left corner. Hover on "Tools" then click "Clear Browsing Data." One of the options in the menu that appears is "Empty the cache."

ETA: Oops-it is the upper RIGHT corner. :blink:

      is my celiac disease gone?

      By Jmartes71 · Posted

      This is my current exhausting battle with the medical field. As Ive mentioned in past I was diagnosed in 1994 by colonoscopy and endoscopy and was told i was celiac and to stay away from wheat and Ill be just fine.NOPE not at all in fact im worse thanks to being disregarded and my new word that was given that fits perfectly medically gaslight for over 30 years.I was not informed by anyone about the condition other than its a food allergy. Long story short if it wasn't for this website.I would be so much worse. I have been glutenfree since 1994 and was diagnosed with many other foods in 2007. I have stayed away from those items, except dairy sometimes I'll cheat when I know I'll be home a few days.My work history is horrible thanks to my digestive issues. I had my past primary for 25 years and everything im going through, he danced around celiac disease. My last day of employment was March 08, 2023 I was a bus driver and took pride in that.I get sick easily and when covid hit me and I stopped taking tramadel to push to give my bloated body a break, I haven't " bounced " back.Though not that well before but worse now.I applied for disability because yet again I was fired solely on health, which by the way seems to be legal because no lawyer wants to help.I was denied and my primary stated let me fluff it up a bit.FLUFF IT UP A BIT?He has been my doctor for 25 years! All that Im going through was basically ignored and not put together. I switched primary doctor and seeing new gi and its EXTREMELY EXHAUSTING because they are staying all my test came back clean, good, its normal. Except THANKYOU LORD JESUS HLA DQ2 is positive that Itty bitty tiny little test of positive FINALLY VALIDATION RIGHT.No, Im still struggling and fighting its not fair

      Paying for my own Celiac screening at WalkInLab so a positive result doesn’t become part of my medical history

      By Joel K · Posted

      Since medical insurance is not affected directly by celiac disease on an ongoing basis (i.e. medication, medical devices, daily monitoring, home care nursing, etc), I rather doubt anyone would be denied a policy for having it as a pre-existing condition. I’ve certainly never been and I have two pre-existing conditions that are managed with diet alone and both are long-well-known by my doctors and via medical testing and procedures. Insurance is all about risk management, not health.

      Yes. And then it will become part of her medical record, which was my point.

      Gluten and short-term memory.

      By miguel54b · Posted

      I got beaten so bad playing dominoes that made me realize that I was probably eating something with gluten, the culprit (Simms premium cracked pepper STEAKSTRIP). Now I can look back and see all other symptoms: irregular stools, bad sleep, desire to eat uncontrollably, bad mood, etc. Gluten really does a job on my short-term memory.
