Someone sent a comment to my profile, but it is pending my approval. I don't know how to view it.

If it's the same one I got from "love..." it's junk. The messages were being removed. I'll put one on yours ( a nice one not junk) & see if you can see it.

Those comments have been removed--a spammer got through earlier today.

I am having a similar problem. It says I have 2 new "personal conversations". When I went to view them last night I saw that they were not questions directed at me specifically, but appear to be from a lost new member trying to get help from the board. I can't figure out how to view the entire meassage or how to reply to this person to let them know they posted their questions to my profile instead of the board. I tried to just delete the messages but it still says I have 2 unread. Can anyone help me either delete these or can someone transfer her questions to the board? Also is there a way to just make it so no one can post messages to my profile? I have had this problem before and I can't figure out what to do about it....

In the upper right corner of the page, you will see your user name above the search bar. To the right of it is a downward pointing triangle. Click it to access a menu.

To see your messages, choose "Messenger" which is the fifth one on the list. Once there, you can read, reply to, or delete messages. You can also send them from there.

To disable (or re-enable) Personal Messenger, select the second option, "My Settings." Click on the "Notification Options" button on the left side of the screen. In the Privacy Settings section, check the box "Disable my personal messenger." Scroll all the way to the bottom and click on "Save Changes."

I have no way to see what those messages are, or who sent them. If you want to send that information to me via a personal conversation, you can. Do that BEFORE you disable your personal messenger. :blink:

Thank you, but now they are gone now. I'm not sure what happened--Perhaps they were deemed spam or perhaps I was successful in deleting them somehow. I guess I am confused because I am familiar with using private messages on other forums but these seemed to be messages posted on my profile where anyone viewing my profile could see them. I wouldn't mind getting private messages from memebrs that want to ask me questions but I can't figure out how to reply to these profile messages. So I guess I will just disable all messages from here on.

Yes, these were comments to my profile, not personal messages. I had my setting set up so that I had to approve those message before anyone could post. There were two new messages that someone tried to add yesterday. I did not approve them but tried to delete them last night. they were stillt here this mornign when I posted this but now theya re gone. Perhaps it was just a delay...I don't know. I am just going to disable posting to my profile I think because people keep trying to post there as if they think they are on the message board forum. Thank you for the help.

      Potential celiac need advice

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      It seems like you have two choices--do a proper gluten challenge and get re-tested, or just go gluten-free because you already know that it is gluten that is causing your symptoms. In order to screen someone for celiac disease they need to be eating gluten daily, a lot of it--they usually recommend at least 2 slices of wheat bread daily for 6-8 weeks before a blood screening, and at least 2 weeks before an endoscopy (a colonoscopy is no used to diagnose celiac disease). Normally the blood panel is your first step, and if you have ANY positive results there for celiac disease the next step would be to take biopsies of your villi via an endoscopy given by a gastroenterologist.  More info on the blood tests and the gluten challenge beforehand is below: The article includes the "Mayo Clinic Protocol," which is the best overall protocol for results to be ~98% accurate. Here is more info about how to do a gluten challenge for a celiac disease blood panel, or for an endoscopy: and this recent study recommends 4-6 slices of wheat bread per day:   Not to discourage you from a formal diagnosis, but once you are diagnosed it may lead to higher life and medical insurance rates (things will be changing quickly in the USA with the ACA starting in 2026), as well as the need to disclose it on job applications. While I do think it's best to know for sure--especially because all of your first degree relatives should also get screened for it--I also want to disclose some negative possibilities around a formal diagnosis that you may want to also consider.

      Yes.  Now, if you hit your finger with a hammer once, wouldn't you do your best not to do it again?  You have identified a direct connection between gluten and pain.  Gluten is your hammer.  Now you have to decide if you need a medical diagnosis.  Some countries have aid benefits tgat you can get if you have the diagnosis, but you must continue eating a gluten-normal diet while pursuing the diagnosis. Otherwise the only reason to continue eating gluten is social. There are over 200 symptoms that could be a result of celiac disease.. Celiac Disease and Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity  both cause multiple vitamin and mineral deficiency.  Dealing with that should help your recovery, even while eating gluten.  Phosphatidyl Choline supplements can help your gut if digesting fats is a problem,  Consider that any medications you take could be causing some of the symptoms, aside from gluten.

      Welcome to the forum, @Ben98! If you have been consciously or unconsciously avoiding gluten because of the discomfort it produces then it is likely that your blood antibody testing for celiac disease has been rendered invalid. Valid testing requires regular consumption of generous amounts of gluten. The other strong possibility is that you have NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity) which shares many of the same symptoms with celiac disease but does not have the autoimmune component and thus does not damage the small bowel lining. It is 10x mor common than celiac disease. There is currently no test for NCGS. Celiac disease must first be ruled out. Some experts in the field believe it can be a precursor to the development of celiac disease. Having one or both of the primary genes for developing celiac disease does not imply that you will develop active celiac disease. It simply establishes the potential for it. About 40% of the population has the genetic potential but only about 1% develop active celiac disease.

      TTG blood test and total IGA tested on many occasions which have always remained normal, upper GI pain under my ribs since 2022. I had an endoscopy in 2023 which showed moderate gastritis. no biopsy’s were taken unfortunately. genetic test was positive for HLADQ2. extreme bloating after eating gluten, it’ll feel like I’ve got bricks in my stomach so uncomfortably full. the pain is like a dull ache under the upper left almost like a stitch feeling after a long walk. I am just wanting some advice has anyone here experienced gastritis with a gluten issue before? thank you

      "Conclusions: The urinary iodine level was significantly lower in women with postmenopausal osteoporosis, and iodine replacement may be important in preventing osteoporosis"  Body iodine status in women with postmenopausal osteoporosis Low iodine can cause thyroid problems, but Iodine deficiency will not show up in thyroid tests.  Iodine is important for healing, its job is to kill off defective and aging cells (Apoptosis). Skin, brain fog, nails, muscle tone all inproved when I started taking 600 mcg (RDA 150 - 1000 mcg) of Liquid Iodine drops. Some with dermatitis herpetiformis, Iodine exacerbates the rash.  I started at 1 drop (50 mcg) and worked up to 12 drops, but I don't have dermatitis herpetiformis.
