I'm not really sure what you are asking about? I don't see dots under names.

Perhaps you mean the circles under the title that appears under the person's avatar? They are a reflection of the number of posts the member has made.

Yes, the circles under (in your case) where it says moderator.

If it's the # of posts, why have I seen people with more posts have less circles than others with more posts?

Here is my understanding.

If you have less than 25 posts, you are a "New Community Member" and have one circle.

If you have at least 25, but less than 75, you are a "Community Member" and have three circles.

If you have 75 or more posts, you are an "Advanced Community Member" and have six circles.

AAAAAAAANNNNNNND: if one is in the Tickle Me Elbow thread, and one's post number makes a significant flipover (eg., from 299 to 300, or even more significant -- 1,999 to 2,000), the most incredible things immediately start happening in one's life. The dots don't increase, but magical things transpire. .. . ... . ...and don't even get me started with the centennial PAGE flipovers....

In fact, there is a Major Flip imminent as we speak... . . ....3,200 pages will have been written in the next day or two. Please head over there, see what transpires, and become participants! Or Royal Subjects. . . . ..... B):rolleyes:

Warrior princess! I love it. I did glutenologist fast - needs more thought. Or perhaps frequent changing. B)

I'd clearly better get to work to flipover to 4,000. I could use some good luck!

      Chest pain from celiac

      By Wheatwacked · Posted

      Vitamin D deficiency can contribute to rib pain. Chest pain stemming from the ribs ccould be costochondritis, which involves inflammation of the cartilage connecting the ribs to the breastbone. This pain can range from mild to severe, potentially mimicking heart attack symptoms, and is often worsened by breathing or movement. Other potential causes include muscle strain, rib fractures, or even referred pain from other conditions.  It will also help to chose vegetables low in omega 6.

      Hypothetical question about antibodies

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Great question! Even if some individuals with celiac disease don’t experience immediate villi damage from occasional cross-contamination, it’s still strongly recommended to maintain strict avoidance of gluten. The immune response triggered by gluten can vary between individuals, and even small amounts may cause systemic inflammation or other symptoms, even if intestinal damage isn’t immediately detectable. Additionally, repeated exposure—even at low levels—could lead to cumulative harm over time. Strict avoidance of cross-contamination remains the safest approach to prevent long-term complications and ensure overall health. Everyone’s sensitivity differs, so working with a healthcare provider to tailor precautions is ideal.

      Hypothetical question about antibodies

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      You have one gene for Celiac.  You have a second autoimmune disease, Hashimoto's thyroiditis, which is frequently found at a higher rate with Celiac.  HLA genes carry autoimmune disease genes like Celiac and Hashimoto's and diabetes and others.   You have Celiac symptoms of reacting after gluten.  You said "I am however still suffering from the effects of the gluten challenge (food sensitivities, slight brain fog, weird stool, fatigue, swollen thyroid, bodyaches)."  And your anti-thyroid antibodies increase after gluten exposure.  While tTg IgA does not directly attack the thyroid, gluten exposure does trigger the  immune system to produce antibodies against the thyroid in genetically predisposed individuals.  You did not eat sufficient gluten (10 grams of gluten per day for two weeks minimum) to raise the autoimmune antibodies to the point they can be measured in the blood, so your blood tests may well be inaccurate.  You could choose to continue the gluten challenge of 10 grams a day for at least two weeks and get retested.   At the very least, you know that gluten is harmful to your thyroid, and because you are genetically predisposed to Celiac disease, a strict gluten free diet would be beneficial for your overall health.

      Thanks @Scott Adams! I guess my question now is: do the celiacs who can get away with regular contamination without villi damage as you mentioned have to be strict about cross-contamination ?
